ARRRGGHH!!
Am fuming. DH took the dog out for a walk this morning and happening to notice a poster up advertising a big fireworks display to take place on our street on New Year's Eve, and inviting the whole town.
He went on the Community Association website and discovered that it was accurate, and there is a plan for a big event on our road and everyone is invited to bring their NYE parties along for the fireworks.
For background, we live on one of the mainish roads in our small town/large village. The road is about 3/4 residential, with 5 or 6 commercial properties as well, a chemist, hairdresser, etc. It's next to the river, hence the choice. However there is a big field elsewhere in the village that can be and is usually used for this type of event.
Because our house is right opposite the river, the event will be literally outside our door, with hundreds of people, mostly drunk probably, and extremely loud fireworks. We have two small children and a puppy.
At no point have residents been consulted about this at all, and we only found out about it by accident this morning, otherwise we would have been non the wiser.
AIBU to be absolutely fuming?
DH has rung the Community Association this morning and been completely and unapologetically fobbed off.
AIBU?
To not want a NYE fireworks display outside my front door?
