Hi all,


Its my birthday on Sunday, so I was thinking about having a big bonfire with some fireworks on Dawson Hill on Saturday night, with some friends*. I was wondering, are we likely to be disturbed by any busybodies, who don't like fireworks? Or any dog owners who think their dog is more important than God so no one should let fireworks off, in case it is scared? I appreciate that bonfires might not e legal in this area, but with everything else closed- how else am i expected to celebrate my birthday?


*We'll all have taken a covid test earlier in the day, and we are outside anyway so covid will be non transmissible.

That's fine Steven


Just remember to sit atop a rocket before lighting the blue touch paper to get the full effect.


No good being a tw@t unless others can enjoy the spectacle


oh and get a friend to video it and post it on here too will you, there's a sweetie

I bought absolutely loads for Bonfire night and NYE, so got plenty left over (we were so pissed on NYE we actually stopped letting them off as it was getting a little dangerous!). Also found some dumped pallets down Brixton way which we have dried out, ready to burn on Saturday night.



Now all we need is the weather to hold out- fingers crossed!

We were actually thinking of getting a few black plastic wheely bins from the local flats, dressing them up as Corbyn, Khan and Starmer etc, and burning them on the fire with a bit of petrol.

Sorry to tell you Steven, but I took your advice which you posted a few weeks ago, and have been fly-tipping all my junk on Dawsons Hill (what are the chances?!). If you can clear a path through it all to get to the top, just remember to take a mask, as if you decide to throw some of it on the bonfire, most of it will produce some pretty toxic gases.

    • We’ve got a gap on the roof of our shed that needs patching  don’t want to buy a huge roll so hoping someone has some leftover  happy to collect/reimburse 
    • I never said I thought it was targeted or deliberate. There also has never been a “stand off” or confrontation, we’ve spoken to them in a friendly manner about it. Our experience is they don’t seem to care. That’s the frustrating thing for us, if someone politely raises a concern at least take a second to reflect. Treat others how you would want to be treated.  I don’t want them to lose their job, far from it. But considering it could cost me a days work to fix any damage, I’m within my right to try prevent it.   
    • The SE22 Evri delivery family are lovely, and always say hello wherever we spot them in the area. We gave them a box of chocolates during Covid as they were working their socks off at Christmas
    • What was he doing on the stage at Glastonbury? Or on the stage at the other concert in Finsbury Park? Grinning like a Cheshire cat whilst pissed and stoned 20 somethings on the promise of free internet sung-- Oh Jeremy Corbyn---  What were his policies for Northern mining towns with no jobs or infrastructure? Free Internet and university places for youngsters. What were his other manifesto pledges? Why all the ambiguity over Brexit?  I didn't like Thatcher, Blair or May or Tony but I respected them as politicians because they stood by what they believed in. I respect all politicians across the board that stick to their principles. Corbyn didn't and its why he got  annihilated at the polls. A socialist, anti imperialist and anti capitalist that said he voted for an imperialist and pro capitalist cabal. He refused to say how he'd vote over and over again until the last knockings. He did so to appease the Islington elite and middle class students he was courting. The same people that were screaming that Brexit was racist. At the same time the EU were holding black and Asian immigrants in refugee camps overseas but not a word on that! Corbyn created and courted a student union protest movement that screamed at and shouted down anyone not on the left . They claimed Starmer and the centre right of labour were tories. He didn't get elected  because he, his movement and policies were unelectable, twice. He turned out not to have the convictions of his politics and died on his own sword.    Reform won't win an election. All the idiots that voted for them to keep out Labour actually enabled Labour. They'll be back voting tory next time.    Farage wouldn't be able to make his millions if he was in power. He's a very devious shyster but I very much doubt he'd actually want the responsibility that governance requires.
