Billy Jean King Posted December 31, 2021 Share Posted December 31, 2021 Ah so it was supposed to be unannounced to stop crowds ie tell everyone publicly it's cancelled but it's been leaked by the press unsurprisingly. Very strange way to handle a huge scale public event. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billy Jean King Posted December 31, 2021 Share Posted December 31, 2021 Seems very confused, Royal Parks tweeted 10m ago it's definitely NOT happening. Might be fake news who knows (clearly not everyone that should) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck the met police with that if it's being announced as the public display being reinstated by some media outlets. Personally can't see an issue folk watching fireworks outside although why anyone wants to celebrate NY outside is beyond me. Did it once and it was utter shite, a piss poor night out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did it once and it was utter shite, a piss poor night out.It seems to be the same as last year - Sadiq Khan trying to please everyone then ends up pleasing no-one.Agree about going out at New Year - can't be arsed - like staying in one place inside - either my own house or a brother's/sister's. We've also tended to downplay it for quire a few years now because one of our grandchildren has a birthday on the 1st - so we tend to congregate at their house for a few shandies.And anyone who's been in Dundee City Centre at New Year knows that it really isnt fun being surrounded by gangs of drunken teens. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given that it's outside, crowds are not banned in England and football stadia and the darts are crammed every night, they'd be as well just letting people in now if they do turn up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone on that plane would have been exposed regardless of her actions. Made sure she got her wee bit of media fame by telling all and sundry about her courageous "selfless" act too. I absolutely loathe this aspect of modern society. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeeTillEhDeh Posted December 31, 2021 Share Posted December 31, 2021 Is that on this year. Can’t wait to explain how shite it was. I just realised that it's not on - last year's was the final show.Thank f**k.Normally we'll watch Jools' Hootenanny - but Ed fucking Sheeran and Lulu are the stars this year.Hearing Lulu's fake posh accent is like hearing nails down a blackboard to me. And I can't stand Sheeran bland shite 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
