WELL, it's about a month since I wrote about the Oldhams Estate.
Have things changed? Very much so. The good thing is the little ones are not putting their lives in danger by using the middle of the road as a playground on their wheeled toys.
Anything else changed? Yes and no!
The no is that young people on the mini motorbikes and scooters are still going up and down the roads without helmets - very fast and very dangerous. I would not like to imagine the injuries if one came off.
The yes is that fireworks have started on and off for two weeks. Last night there were quite a few, very loud and very close, worrying pets and older people. Now that has started we will have them for a long time - we know this, it happens every year. A lot of the time it sounds like the fireworks have been put in sealed containers for maximum effect.
