Not sure how you would identify a special ops model in the sky? Surely they are the ones that are quieter and fitted with additional surveillance & communications kit?


Maybe the SAS / SBS / 14th Int detachment are thinking of busting a Christmas Eve party - or abseilling into a carol concert?

Its Santa having a look where there are no longer Chimney Stacks to climb down.

Looks like you will have to stand outside and catch your present from the Helicopter

as Santa has updated from his old sleigh.

It was prohibited as a health Hazard due to the droppings from overhead Reindeer.

Sweetgirl,

At 12.07 (as police noted the time) I was driving down Forest Hill Road and was almost hit full-on by a white/silver speeding car on the wrong side of the road i.e.. coming at me. He overtook a learner driver going towards Francesca Cabrini and took the front of his car off. The white/silver car was being chased by unmarked police cars. I stopped to give the driving instructor my details as a witness. The helicopter was pretty low at this point. Plain clothed police came pretty quickly. The poor learner was pretty shaken up. The driver wasn't stopping for anyone. I thank god that I didn't come round the corner a second or two later as he was driving like a maniac.

He could've caused mayhem with pedestrians, cyclists or maniac. Only when I got back in the car did I realise what a near-miss we'd all had !

There ya go! It's my old horse riding helmet so it gives added protection as well as stopping evil corporations from penetrating my brain and telling me what to buy and how to behave.....

    • I spoke to a sound engineer at Piermont and he mentioned the software they use which tries to absorb the sound into the landscape
    • I think we're probably closest - about 50m from one of the tents - and to be honest it's not that bad. The bass is making the windows vibrate but it's not 'noisy' I've always said the loud music is the least of the issues to me. It's the construction for two weeks before / one week after, the imposing steel wall, the trodden in non-decomposing litter (fag butts, cable ties, vapes, bottle tops, ring pulls) which will cover the entire site forever, the compaction & damage to the grass which takes months to recover, the impact on birds, bats & wildlife of 24/7 lights, the anti social behaviour of so many attendees (p***ing on the streets and in the bushes) and this year the blatant extending of the site footprint, despite previously giving the reason they can't move it is because it's been designed for that location. And hopefully everyone can see this for what it really is - an attempt to win over the local community and set a precedent for four festival days, so that they have a stronger argument when they put in an application for six days again next year.  Southwark state that the money from Gala goes directly to supporting their Events dept, who support "up to 100 free events every year". So what are these free events, and why do we need another? 
    • Found now. All safe.   Found now!
    • We are on Friern Road and can not  hear Gala tonight, each year it depends on direction of wind, but we can hear Kneecap who are playing in Brockwell tonight....
