There isn't much difference. Both are a bit scummy, but not the end of the world.

In Italy/France/Spain adults drink around kids, and the children learn to be responsible with alcohol. I therefore propose that beer in the playground is compulsory for all Dads. (Mums can choose aperol spritz if modelling themselves after the Italians).
Worth mentioning if anyone needs a playground alternative... Gambado sells not only (fairly) decent coffee, but also (only somewhat overpriced) beer.... and they're air conditioned. I always try to get an armchair, and once I almost finished reading an entire newspaper! xx

Pants, I was really hoping to have a pint in the playground - do I need ot have aperol spritz instead?

I think you'll find that Prosecco is the chosen choice of the good ladies of East Dulwich Jezza, though who's to say that this Aperol Spritz may take on over here now that you've mentioned it.

    • People have been setting off fireworks in London since the 1400s!!!

    • I'm guessing that most people with pets would not bring either the pets or fireworks into their day to day conversations, to complain or otherwise. Are you suggesting that only "timid" pets are scared by fireworks? What evidence do you have for that, exactly?  Or are you equating being scared of fireworks with being "timid"? And what about the foxes and other wildlife? Is it ok for them to be scared? Firework noise is not a noise that "comes with normal city living" ! What a very strange thing to say! Are you one of the people who have been constantly letting off fireworks recently? I'm assuming you don't have any pets yourself, or you wouldn't have these opinions, but if you do have pets, please share how they react when they hear loud bangs. Unless they are goldfish, in which case you probably wouldn't be able to tell.
