Yet those that do think it gifts them the upper hand in any area in life or conversation.


"well, as a parent...." etc. argh!!!

If you have to work on Mondays then your Sundays are sacred- not just for you but for anyone who would suffer if you could not do your job properly on Monday having been denied adequate r and r at the weekend. If you had had prior warning of a noisy event then you could have made plans to go somewhere else. This sounds like total inconsiderate behaviour by a group of people who think they can set up in a public place in a residential area. It is not on and should not have happened the way it did- one Sunday or 10 it makes no difference. What would happen if we all did it?

Well life dosent stop just because people have work. What is the big deal??

A group of people?? These people want to hold an event that was given permission from the council. The money raised goes straight back into the community to keep youngsters of the street.

I'm sure you don't want youngsters hanging around outside your house do you?

These group of people are doing a good thing.

I wonder how all you miserable people help raise money for the community?


You guys really need to get a life. There's so much more important stuff going on than an event playing music in the afternoon!

I'd far rather put up with some noise during the daytime, than the racket my neighbours and their child make at 7:30am every Saturday and Sunday morning - without fail. That has a far greater effect and the quality of my R&R come Monday morning.

It's a funny thing noise pollution. People clearly have different levels of tolerence for different kinds of noise.


I think it was loud, but I wasn't unduly disturbed by it. I just thought it's obviously a one off event on a sunny afternoon and loud.

It is unfortunate that some of you for whatever reasons were unable to enjoy the family fun day. Happily my family did. I did not know anything about it before hand either. We heard the music as a gentle rumble from the Boys Academy side when we were out walking in the park at about 11am. We made a game of tracking down the source of the music and were pleasantly surprised by what we found. I paid my ?4 entrance fee, very pleased it wasn't a private party and and the two kids and I (9 months and 3 and a half years) had a great time. Folk were friendly, the music was not too loud as long as we did not stand directly in front of the speakers. I called my wife and we had lunch and spentthe rest of the afternoon there. Great way for me to meet and to talk to other young families and young people. I made a point of congratulating the staff there for putting on such a well organised and pleasant event. The staff/stewards were friendly and helpful, and present in good numbers. I went to one of the stands and had my blood pressure and blood sugar checked, whilst my older kid had the time of her life on a bouncy castle.

Ha ha . Well said. One of the big reasons I moved from my previous abode was the hideous caterwauling from the kids next door at 0600 every freaking morning - including my sacrosanct weekends. Lovely kids, but jeeez....

Didn't it take place this year? I was away so thought I had mmissed it. It's a shame if it has stopped, it was a fun day out for every, Irish or not.

Here's some diddly dee music to remind you of the fun everyone else had LOL http://www.southwarkirish.com/images/webclip_05_fest.wmv

    • The country didn't "hate Corbyn". Labour under Corbyn got more votes than Labour under Starmer, if memory serves, and it was only due to our weird electoral system that they didn't win the previous election. Any hatred of Corbyn was whipped up by the right wing press. The Labour Party has completely lost its way. It doesn't seem to know what it stands for any more, and its members have deserted it in droves. Including me. Anyway, this is probably for the lounge, not being directly relevant to the subject of the thread.
    • Agree but Labour made a far worse start and the wheels seem to be falling off spectacularly quickly. Whatever the reason for Reeves' tears it made the markets very jittery and now there is real doubt about how much longer she will last but Starmer cannot afford to lose her - I think they are both toast and the likes of Rayner and Streeting will be licking their chops. A bit like what is happening with Cllr McAsh locally the internal politics of the Labour party always are the real driver of policy, direction and execution and for a government with such a huge majority to be struggling so much so early is really worrying. We should all be very scared because this is paving the way for Reform and a leadership challenge or swing to the farther-left within Labour would be an unmitigated disaster - we had another term of Boris because the country hated Corbyn and his far-left ideology and the far-left Labour may see a leadership challenge as their only feasible way to take the reigns - a bit like Cllr McAsh and his Momentum buddies.
    • He has been around for a few months now and looks so sad and unhappy   ,he is coming into the gardens at the top end of  Upland and  Dunstans Roads .Just wondered if he is owned as he is not neutered and keeps getting into fights with cats .
    • Starting with Brexit, all the way through to drunken lock down parties, and then finishing on Liz Truss' 'mini budget', I would say it was fairly disastrous from start to finish.
