Just had another look at the council website on fireworks and asb. Looks like they have now handed misuse of fireworks to police (page last updated 25th November 2025): https://www.southwark.gov.uk/public-health-and-safety/community-safety/antisocial-and-threatening-behaviour/misuse-fireworks I'm sure it used to be under the council antisocial behaviour team. There is still a link to the antisocial behaviour reporting form though. Southwark's noise nuisance page still mentions fireworks at night between 11pm and 7am with exceptions for certain events, so clearly some confusing and inconsistent advice going on: https://www.southwark.gov.uk/public-health-and-safety/community-safety/noise-and-nuisance -
> Was the penguin there? I like the penguin. I like the way he clacks his beak No, none of the others. Peregrine was in fact the only one I had time for. Maybe something about him of a proto-Victor Meldrew, or maybe a hint of Gilbert Harding? The only other one of whom I remember anything is the iirc rather tiresome Katy the Kangaroo. The Annette Mills WikiP article I found interesting. If you branch out from there you may eventually get to the 'official site' https://www.muffinthemule.co . Your browser might provide a small frisson if you take the necessary Advanced entry route to the latter, with warnings of possible danger if you proceed further. In fact apparently nothing more than an expired certificate. -
Commiserations, hope you feel a lot better soon. Nasty things going around, it seems, it's an absolute pain when you can't do anything. -
Did you phone the actual noise control number? I posted a screenshot of it above on the thread somewhere. If so, they have given you totally wrong information, unless they have recently changed their policy on firework noise. You could complain to the council directly and/or ask your councillor to take it up with them? I was also disturbed by very loud firework noise earlier tonight, and it's over three weeks since 5 November. It is really not acceptable. It was still loud through triple glazing in my bedroom. Poor animals.
