Would be inclined to suggest the latter... music and art make us human. Money and finance are just things we use... tokens and tools..

I find that really annoying, Salsa. I chase them off by spraying them with water from am old washing-up liquid bottle. Slightly concerned what the neighbours may think though as my range is about one and a half gardens.

Squirrels are one of the rare group of 'fermenters' regarding food


It's why the bury nuts/acorns

The only likely environment for a confrontation would be shallow African rivers. So we're probably talking about a bull shark. The bull shark is a fierce creature, can grow over 3m long, regularly dines on other sharks, and has been known to attack hippos. The lion's only hope would be to drag the shark onto the shore, which is a long shot. I'm going for the shark.

    • 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!
