Luan Pra bang

After finishing work late yesterday night I recieved a phone call to say there was a rave happening in my field. I went down there phoned the police two officers turned up first followed by a van and some dogs. They phoned the police chief who instantly gave them permission to use force and dogs to clear the area and confiscate the sound system after which the they went and explained to situation to the organisers who proceeded to pack up their gear pick up all the rubbish apologise to me personally and then left the site with no fuss or trouble. Admittedly it might not have been so easy had it got going as we turned thirty cars away at the gate plus more people on foot but they way the police handled the situation was spot on and all credit to them.

All credit to the organisers as well - that could've got messy very quickly.

Good job by the police tho' - nice to see them react so well.

eh?

Have you been to planet earth lateley? - the sort of people that attend these raves are pikeys with bad taste in music I'm sure you'd appreciate 2000 people and 120 DB in your back garden till 7 am.

dpb

unclebuck

by the police yes , ok, so you have spent all night dancing in somebody elses field, it's 7am, and you have run out of nose whiskey/happy pills.

Now can you go and pick up all your litter please? - its never going to happen.

unclebuck

It *does* happen. The savvy landowner lets the party proceed as a 'private party' for a healthy cut of the proceeds and employs a few to litter pick at the end. The council will provide skips if asked.

(At least - that's how it used to work )

fair enough UB,luan bra prang's post read slightly differently.


set the people free.let them dance.then ring the rozzers when you have collected half the ticket money, and dissapear for a couple of days.

(well that's how I'd do it )

bloody hell

our local feds assesed the situation, and felt it was to dangerous to go onto the site to stop it...

it started at 8pm on a warm summers evening...!!!!!!!!!!!!!

oh and the busses had been on the site for more than a week!!!

bet you if the cc had lived in the vicinity, it would have stopped sharpish

funny how they can wake you up at midnight with a parafin budgie & 40 million candle power!!!

bring on voted law enforcement

Exactly. Nice warm summer's night, standing around 'monitoring' the situation and 'directing traffic' = a good little overtime earner for them too.

Everyone goes home happy.

Pffffff PMSL. First thing I thought aswell.

scrappydoo

I bet at least one crime was committed after they were turned away cos they were bored

Maybe the Chief Constable from Notts had an effect with his open letter. Wonder why they did not ask permission first.
