If you are out tonight with pubs and restaurants reopening a plea please.


Enjoy yourself but remember unfortunately the pandemic hasn?t gone away. Please practice social distancing and follow any instructions from staff.


For me one of the most worrying things is that I could be carrying the virus but feel totally ok and pass it on unknowingly. If you get it and get mild symptoms you might be ok but we probably all know of someone that would be at higher risk if they caught it so if you think the restrictions are a bit over the top please think you are doing this for those more vulnerable than you.


Particularly don?t ?shoot the messenger?. The person telling you to step back / wait will be telling you either what the government or their boss says. We all know the government isn?t always right and who hasn?t disagreed or not been 100% in agreement with something their boss has said to do? The person telling you to step back / wait has been in lockdown too. Be polite, be kind and do what they ask - it might not be what you think should be done but does anyone have all the answers on the virus? Not that I?ve seen.

    • That said, organised displays could be on Saturday before and after and the actual day, and private ones could just not have the loud ones.  It’s all down to accessibility and people caring/not caring
    • The problem this year is that 5th November falls on a Wednesday. So some places will be bringing their "bonfire night" forward to Saturday 1st and some will be knocking it back to Saturday 8th and there'll probably be a few that just go with Wednesday 5th anyway. If you're doing a public display, having it on a weekend gets more crowds. Which basically means a solid week of fireworks.
    • Fireworks in this area do feel totally incessant at this time of year, almost every evening there is terrible noise. I feel great concern for wildlife, pets (I have a senior cat who hates them), as well as people who struggle with PTSD etc. Last year I even had people setting them off in front of my home. Tonight and yesterday evening have been particularly bad. Is there anything we can do as a community to prevent this? What action can we take? Surely we shouldn’t be expected to just put up with it every year for weeks on end! 
    • Does anyone know what time tonight's events, the second night of the new phenomenon of Halloween Fireworks, end? These do sound too major to be anything but large- scale organised events and they are loud, very loud. So anyone, for their own reasons, that dislikes or objects to this level of noise for the next x amount of hours, really has no choice in the matter! Could those addicted to loud bangs possibly have a kind of silent disco setup with the bangs sent through headphones, so the rest of us could be spared?
