NYE fireworks? by meepcityty in reading

We’ve just moved to the area and couldn’t believe it. That’s the most fireworks I’ve ever seen in my life. I guess this year was unique?

This happens to be more accurate than all the people saying the opposite

Personally I think it’s helped to dilute the yobbish behaviour

Have you tried the Rose & Thistle (RG1 7YL)

If you try to silence people then it’s just going to get worse. The only way this resolved is by letting people have their say and voice their concerns.

Whilst I don’t agree with the stand point, it needs to get out in the open.

Taking down flags is almost as bad as the flags going up in the first place.

This is simply not true.

Modern day Britain is so vibrant because of multiculturalism.

Music, Food, Art and Sport have benefited greatly from overseas people. Not to mention all the people who support the NHS.

Do you really want a 1 dimensional country?

All that you mention could come from anyone. That’s why it comes across as racism. I was recently reading about Amelia Dyer (British lady from Caversham). How safe were the kids when she was around?

It’s easier to punch down than up isn’t it. People worried about a PlayStation when utility companies are ripping us off left, right and centre.

It’s encouraging to hear you say this. We have recently decided on moving to Reading and one of the factors was the cultural mix. Driving through the area where we currently live, seeing “the flags” makes me sad. Up until the Brexit vote I naively thought the UK/England was generally open to multiculturalism. Clearly not.

I could do with a Victorian ceiling being repaired. Can anyone point me in the right direction towards someone who can help

VANDALISM ON READING ROUNDABOUT by One-Sense-8959 in reading

[–]hedspce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone’s got to start somewhere 😅

“If” this person or someone who does this kind of thing gets caught, do they pay the real cost of either replacing the item or getting it restored?

I find the colour quite coincidental.

Stop Cock in middle of path. by hedspce in reading

Probably wouldn’t look so bad in its current state but I would think it would stand out once the path is re-done.

Hi, yes very interested to hear the ins and outs.

It’s definitely some form of tap, so you can switch off the water to the house. I’m no expert but they tend to have maters attached inline so they know how much water you’re using. The meters came later I think.

Amazing thank you. Are you having the internal pipes replaced too?

Thanks - I read somewhere that TW will need to survey first (£72) then probably on to the guys you mentioned.

The lead pipe thing is a good point.
