as I've made clear above, I was joking


were you joking about blanket leafleting and the distribution of unwanted paper? imagine the cost to the environment of loads of people receiving loads of leaflets about things that they have no interest in

but you did suggest leafleting a mile's diameter too

I heard the fireworks on Saturday night, and from what I could see of them from an upstairs window, they were lovely. I can't understand why anyone would think that a ten minute firework display at 10.30 p.m. is unreasonable? It's not exactly late, and if anyone's children are woken up for ten minutes, they don't have to get up for school the next morning. Like many people, I've got animals, but because I choose to keep pets, I really don't expect that to stop other people from enjoying a very short firework display. The world's gone mad!

It really shouldn't need to be said, but people need to be respectful and tolerant in a community.


If you personally do not understand another person's issues, you do not have the right to rubbish it and try and show them in a bad light.


People are just asking for a bit of thought and respect in regard to actions that negatively impact them. It's completely reasonable to do so.

Jules-and-Boo and first mate are correct. By the way a neighbour of mine wrote to the golf club and she said she had quite an apologetic reply. It means they will maybe advertise their next fireworks party, which is all that is needed.

Hope they do advertise their next fireworks party as it must have been very loud for them and on the step neighbours!


We heard it very loudly and like a thunder bolt for 10 minutes in the Red Post Hill area and I tried to work out where it was coming from as it had a big impact on my animals and the local wildlife in the area for the next few days/weeks.

    • To be fair, a pot of tea for one in a department store is a small pot, and you only get one cup or mug!
    • I know - we have been here lots of times since it first opened,  which is why we were disappointed that it was closed at a time it was supposed to be open, but with no notice to say why! I guess we will just  have to ask the reason at our next visit, but I'm not sure we will risk Saturday lunchtime again unless we find the closure  was an unavoidable one off ....
    • Nope. I don’t have this wrong. I’ve tried to put my point across respectfully, without resorting to personal, angry insults. And all my colleagues agree that the BBC got this right in its condemnation.    All you see is confirmation bias.    If you don’t realise that, then you’re part of the problem.    
    • We have always gone during the week at lunch time - great place and good value. Husband has been several times on his own and owner knows his first name. I could not go one time for some reason and she sent him home with some spring rolls (free)
