Brilliant day outdoors on the RAINBOW BRIDGE,

when we all felt a bit more artistic.

What a lovely image and sums up the joy fun and laughter that all the children experienced painting the rainbows.


Patricio I applaud you for this brilliant idea and how you have involved the local schools, the positive impact will have longevity and hopefully motivate and inspire other community projects.

The transformation of the Creepy Bridge to the Rainbow Bridge, the creation of The Aspinall Road Community Gardens is all thanks to you creating the first rainbow.


If there had not been a pandemic, if life had just continued as before in our device obsessed insular world, none of what you have created and inspired would have become reality.


On a personal level the transformation of the bridge and the guerrilla style community garden has been one of the most positive outcomes of the lock downs. This has had a positive impact on my mental health, making new friends and the opportunity to let my creative side 'let rip' combining art gardening and working with nature I could not ask for more.


Finally thank you 'sir' for letting me add my own rainbow on the bridge.

    • Missing Cat! 11 months old/ Our friend, Coco, has gone missing. Last seen evening of 31st October near top of Henslowe rd where it meets Underhill Rd in SE22. We know she has started wandering up Friern Rd and further we guess but we imagine she has been spooked by Halloween / Fireworks goings on. She is a grey Siberian mix with some brown stripes down her, very friendly and likes to eat. Please let us know
    • 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!
