It also makes it clear that you may be out alone after dark and in dimly lit places. Also, that your home may be empty. Not too bright all round really.

Only if you know where rgutsell lives. I assume he hasn't given out his address on the forum. Duh.

Erm... maybe because most people are at work during the daytime?

Not quite sure whether it's you or me that you're trying to make look silly.

I thought in the summer the darkness came in much later. Of course I could be wrong I guess.

Y'man, I don't really understand what you're talking about! But here's a pint anyway... :)-D


KK, not trying to make anyone look silly. Perhaps rgutsell runs in the light during the summer, but at the moment it's winter, and it's dark in the evenings. That's all.




Right, I think my participation in this thread is over... I haven't been running for over a year, and even then my time would have probably been rubbish.

Only an idiot would run when he's pissed.


I'm with the late Jeffrey Bernard on this one. When asked by the medical profession why he drank so much he replied: "To stop myself from jogging."

You must have seen me pass you, no. You're the waiter with the "tray of glasses" right ?

    • 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! 
    • Does anyone know what time tonight's events, the second night of the new phenomenon of Halloween Fireworks, end? These do sound too major to be anything but large- scale organised events and they are loud, very loud. So anyone, for their own reasons, that dislikes or objects to this level of noise for the next x amount of hours, really has no choice in the matter! Could those addicted to loud bangs possibly have a kind of silent disco setup with the bangs sent through headphones, so the rest of us could be spared?
