It's the 5th November, spent fireworks are still raining down like a meteor shower, the smell of bonfires is still lingering around like a political sex scandals and Tescos have their Christmas turkey advert running almost every hour on c5


For pity's sake it's far too early for Christmas adverts, I haven't even eaten all the chocolates from last years advent calendar yet...


Bah humbug one and all

M&S has had Christmas trees up for a few weeks already. Now that Halloween and Bonfire Night are out of the way there's only Remembrance Day to go before it's full-on piped festive music everywhere.


Sometimes think we need another holiday between now and Christmas as a buffer, like Thanksgiving in the US or Sinter Klaas in NL. Maybe we could do something with St Andrew's Day (30 Nov).

    • That's odd, one of the claimed benefits of the Gala money is - "The site hire fee goes directly to supporting the delivery of the council’s Events service, which supports the delivery of up to 100 free-to-attend community events per year" I've asked for a list of these events, as without this I feel it can't realistically be used to justify the disruption. Can anyone name even 10 of these events? 5?
    • There’s an unusual cat in my garden that appears a bit lost and hungry. White and fluffy with grey parts and blue eyes. Seems like a house cat. I’m behind Goose Green off Ondine. 
    • As far as I am aware you have shown no interest in the Gala thread but anything you find to knock a local authority, and no doubt hope that it applies to Southwark LTNs, then off you go. I'd love to hear what you enjoy.  I've been to multiple festivals big and small, in life.  The line up at the Lambeth Show looks good.  Steamdown anyone? It's a balance between many factors, amenity Vs loss of amenity, disruption including noise during the event, damage to the park, income to the local authority during difficult times.  What is your view on these matters, or is it just a case that you smell meat? I cycled in the Massif Central when there was a big creative festival and that smelled of BBQ meat.  Similarly a Portuguese festival at Kensington Park. There are some people round my way who used to complain about the music at the Horniman on a summer Sunday afternoon.  This is not comparable to the disruption due to the Gala, I hasten to add.  But I was stunned at the time thinking how could they have issues with some soul/jazz/afro beat/samba/Latino etc  Shane they don't have the same number of free events any more.  I digress....
    • But I think there are striking similarities between the way Lambeth has managed the Brockwell events and residents therein and the way Southwark has with Gala..... It's how it pastes when you take text from another website (BBC) and is a good way to show that these are someone else's words and not something written by the author!
