Well, the worst time of year is approaching again... the kids’ summer holidays!

Sorry to sound like an old fogey, but my peace and quiet of the winter months is now a thing of the past.

All we get around the top end of Millhouse Lane and the surrounding area is kids out playing football all day and in to the evenings. You dread coming home because all you get is the banging of footballs against peoples fences, vehicles, screaming and shouting.

Yes, I have got children, but I do not allow them to harrass and disturb neighbours. They play quietly and if they want to play football, they go to the field down the road, not somewhere where they are annoying neighbours.

I wish parents would take more control over their children and respect their neighbours.
