AS SOON as the skies clear and sun comes out, inconsiderate people (mainly men in my experience) come out and light their wretched bonfires.

Immediately I have to rush out and get my washing in before it stinks of smoke.

It’s so ignorant on their part, why oh why can’t they wait until the evening when our washing has been dried and taken in?

Please can we have the old law back that says you can only light bonfires after 6pm? That way they would have to be more considerate!
