Hi everyone

I'm going to start with a bit of a rant.......is it me...or was anyone kept awake by the music emanating from the " Club Planet  " bar in Green lanes (opposite Melbourne Ave ) until 3 a.m this morning , this does seem to be getting a regular occurrence, and what makes it more worrying is that they now have a drinks licence....well?
