OK, I realise that spotting an animal in the wild is always more satisfying than TV or Zoo, but I am always astounded at the number of people who attend such occurrences as this, often driving many miles to do so. And sadly often to the detriment of the animal's welfare.

I wonder how much it has to do with "bragging rights" - i.e. I was there

Whilst I understand that people may want to see the animal they should consider the harm they may do to it. Not that he seems bothered. You could probably smell it miles away and save yourself the journey. I can just hear the first of our fireworks going off. My cats used to enjoy the display ( from behind the double glazing and sitting on a warm seat).

Rest easy! Thor the walrus swam away not long before midnight. The firework organisers must be furious!

SBC's Christmas came late but just in time for them to use it as the perfect excuse to shut the display down ;) I'm sure they would have blamed there being no firework display on the seagulls.

A victory for the thin-lipped know-alls in anoraks who rule our lives these days.

I would hardly call Sunak particularly thin-lipped, certainly not a know-all, and I've never seen him in an anorak.

And I fail to see how any of those epithets add anything of substance to this thread.

The Prime Minister ordered the cancellation of the fireworks?
