Hi neighbours,
Is it time to ban the private sale of fireworks in favour of public displays only? Or is Guy Fawkes just a bit of flammable fun?
Would you like to see tighter restrictions on fireworks or are you a sparkler fiend who sees no problem with celebrating safely at home?

All those who have petitions on the go, if you have had enough, let me know and I will arrange collection, if you want a final burst that fine.

There is a face book page about it called Back Beach Steps to raise awareness of this problem,for those of you that love going that part of the beach it's ok getting down to the beach via sand dune,but getting back up to the car park is challeng if you are not super fit,or if you have young children or may be of an age that can't do it any more, you have to walk along beach which is ok when the tide is right. . So please if the community can get behind this page and support the call for the New Plymouth District Council fix our steps so young and old can enjoy this end of Back Beach as they do the rest of beach.
