I saw from my balcony some people in a pub beer garden.

They were clearly laughing, drinking alcohol, smoking and generally having a good time.

What can be done about these sorts of people?
Bum some sense into them.

Mate came round with his new daily smoker . As I was admiring it all I could smell was barbeque .

The car ? Impreza wagon , in that blue . Think it was a 51 plate. Very solid , all the controls nicely weighted and excellent condition all round .

Barbeque smelt nice too .

Think yourself lucky. We're on day 4 of someone nearby burning rubbish - yesterday was mainly plastic, today not quite so unpleasant. If it starts again tomorrow then I'll have to grow a goatee and figure out where the smell is coming from so I can go and confront them!

Lovely blue sky, warm sunshine, birds singing. Perfect spring day.


Enjoy your trip

Still at least he has a nice long garden so that he can keep it away from his fking st hole of a house.
I do feel for you. IMO there's no need for a bonfire these days. Green bin stuff, or take it to the tip. Bonfires should only be allowed if you have no immediate neighbours, so the smoke dissipates before annoying people. But I see plenty of people on here seem to think it's OK.

Funny you say that,

Some friends of ours had to move there for a few years and they said it was very strict about what you are 'allowed' to do on a Sunday, ie NOTHING!

I was once visiting a friend in Koln and as we were stood outside a lady went past pushing a trolley full of glass to be recycled.
My friend stopped talking to me, smiled, and muttered "there's going to be trouble!"
A few minutes later, as the lady was emptying the glass into the local recycling bin, a neighbour came out, said a few strong words and the lady stopped what she was doing and quietly walked back, pushing the nearly full trolley, the way she'd come.
It was because it was a Sunday laugh

Any sun here and the 17 year old a few doors down opens his bedroom window and plays his c...rap music at full volume.

I often wonder what it would be like to strangle him.

If it was me I apologise. it was unexpectedly smokey. won't be burning any more leaves for a while though.

No they still cant run on a Sunday in France. Some fridge lorry's get a permit to run though.
