music event peckham Rye Park

[nunheadbelle]

Awwww sorry I missed this, it obviously wasn't well advertised.

[the-e-dealer]

It was a private party.

[vanessa520]

Not private party, open to all. Just not advertised as well as it should of been

Yet those that do think it gifts them the upper hand in any area in life or conversation.

"well, as a parent...." etc. argh!!!

If you have to work on Mondays then your Sundays are sacred- not just for you but for anyone who would suffer if you could not do your job properly on Monday having been denied adequate r and r at the weekend. If you had had prior warning of a noisy event then you could have made plans to go somewhere else. This sounds like total inconsiderate behaviour by a group of people who think they can set up in a public place in a residential area. It is not on and should not have happened the way it did- one Sunday or 10 it makes no difference. What would happen if we all did it?

[vanessa520]

Well life dosent stop just because people have work. What is the big deal??

A group of people?? These people want to hold an event that was given permission from the council. The money raised goes straight back into the community to keep youngsters of the street.

I'm sure you don't want youngsters hanging around outside your house do you?

These group of people are doing a good thing.

I wonder how all you miserable people help raise money for the community?

You guys really need to get a life. There's so much more important stuff going on than an event playing music in the afternoon!

[uncleglen]

It's a pity that these people who are doing such good things did not have the manners to let the local residents know beforehand.( I am not one but I would be inconvenienced in the extreme if my peace was suddenly disturbed on a Sunday afternoon)

[vanessa520]

Wow it was in the bloody afternoon not 10 at night. They complained at 3 pm for crying out loud.

Move to the country if you want a quiet life!

I'd far rather put up with some noise during the daytime, than the racket my neighbours and their child make at 7:30am every Saturday and Sunday morning - without fail. That has a far greater effect and the quality of my R&R come Monday morning.

[Jeremy]

A one-off party in the park. During the daytime. Hardly the worst thing that ever happened.

[DJKillaQueen]

It's a funny thing noise pollution. People clearly have different levels of tolerence for different kinds of noise.

I think it was loud, but I wasn't unduly disturbed by it. I just thought it's obviously a one off event on a sunny afternoon and loud.

[maxxi]

You should be grateful it wasn't Sly & Reggie...

[James D]

I think he protesteth too much. I live 30 (walking) seconds from the adventure park. I could hear it loud as you like and it made me smile. I even had a walk over to see what was going on!

Calling the noise people is a bit mean, I reckon.

[James D]

I also see the OP is a bit obsessed with noise even when he can't hear anything. He's posted about 10 times about noise on all sorts of threads! Hehe!

Can we club together to get him some earplugs?

[commoner]

It is unfortunate that some of you for whatever reasons were unable to enjoy the family fun day. Happily my family did. I did not know anything about it before hand either. We heard the music as a gentle rumble from the Boys Academy side when we were out walking in the park at about 11am. We made a game of tracking down the source of the music and were pleasantly surprised by what we found. I paid my ?4 entrance fee, very pleased it wasn't a private party and and the two kids and I (9 months and 3 and a half years) had a great time. Folk were friendly, the music was not too loud as long as we did not stand directly in front of the speakers. I called my wife and we had lunch and spentthe rest of the afternoon there. Great way for me to meet and to talk to other young families and young people. I made a point of congratulating the staff there for putting on such a well organised and pleasant event. The staff/stewards were friendly and helpful, and present in good numbers. I went to one of the stands and had my blood pressure and blood sugar checked, whilst my older kid had the time of her life on a bouncy castle.

I second commoner!

Ha ha . Well said. One of the big reasons I moved from my previous abode was the hideous caterwauling from the kids next door at 0600 every freaking morning - including my sacrosanct weekends. Lovely kids, but jeeez....

We'd probably all be less miserable!

[nunheadbelle]

Just a question, do people complain when we have the Irish Festival in Peckham Rye Park every year?

By the way, I love and look forward to the Irish Festival too, with their 'loud music' and Irish dancing and all things Irish :D

But it's not on anymore.

[the-e-dealer]

Used to hate the diddly dee music all afternoon, it was always a rather low quality festival but it was only once a year so I never complained.

[Jessie]

Lived opposite the rye when the irish festival was on with my newborn and it was massively irritating and disruptive and the music was dire but it was advertised so could be avoided

Didn't it take place this year? I was away so thought I had mmissed it. It's a shame if it has stopped, it was a fun day out for every, Irish or not.

[nunheadbelle]
