A sad sight. Alcoholics in the Grange again drinking to excess and singing. Not a nice sight and really unpleasant for families. Where can I complain to in future to get this sorted?

We are paying extra Council Tax to afford this privilege to street drinkers. I also regularly see drug dealing going down in the little ex fountain garden.

I am not proposing a ban of alcohol (being of course an anti-prohibitionist), but we need to take it more seriously and stop glamourising booze in our society. Perhaps using the same strategies as recent governments have taken with tobacco over the past couple of decades would help (increasing taxation, more public health awareness campaigns, advertising bans etc).

At least the incidents you've noted seem relatively "harmless", and just people being a bit noisy and "jovial", but we shouldn't ignore the fact that 53% of violent crimes reported in the UK involve alcohol consumption.

Horseman7, you've made a really good point.
We pay LDC additional taxes for the provision of these public areas and, as such, I feel that they have a duty to maintain them.

Its ok "Pot Addict", don't feel too bad. Its far better and healthier to have a cannabis addiction than an alcohol addiction in practically every possible way measurable.

Perhaps I should have used an anonymous username to post my previous message, it surely would have been better received. Oh well! But just to demonstrate I've no hateful bias against booze, I did have a glass of wine last night - so cool your jets.

As we did in eastern central London before moving here, you must rigorously report every incident and observation in detail to police and to the district and county councils. In that way, a case can be built to obtain a proper Public Space Protection Order for as broad an area as possible. My family obtained one of these in an improving borough where my husband was once a local councillor. In this way the nuisance and any rubbish left behind can be cleared away quickly and legally. We will all thank you for helping!

OP, how do you know they were alcoholics, as opposed to people who'd just had too much and were getting a bit raucous?
I used to love a boozy picnic before my hangovers got so bad I can barely ...

Because they had a huge bottle of cheap cider in their hands.... Which they were drinking openly and flagrantly... Burping, shouting, singing... Why else?
I am disturbed by the way some members of this forum like to pretend that alcoholism and its associated social problems don't exist - as if it is purely personal preference.

Nowt wrong with drinking and burping. Weeing in the bushes is beyond the pale.

Ring the police. They can assess if said drunks are a public nuisance or causing offence. Personally I find the loud behaviour of many families v annoying, but it's just life, so I avoid going where the hoorays are likely to congregate.

I like the walk along the ouse to Hamsey church, the view from the top of the Castle, Pells pool, the antique shops and boot fair, the lion in the window of the 15c bookshop, keere street
