ISN'T it time some fireworks were banned for noise pollution?
Most kinds have at least the merit of spectacular visual display but on Saturday, November 2, people in or near the Craig Lea estate (Tomato-lands) west of the Pickersleigh Road were subjected to a series which comprised only especially hideous noise and flashes of brilliant light.
I took them for war simulators, meant to intimidate or annoy and activated by people with serious degrees of sensory impairment. Most of us do not have cloth ears so why should we be attacked by those who do? Malvern seems particularly full of firework addicts so can we please have some control on the noise they make.
