Hi Steve

Do you know what they are warning about? Caterpillars, piccalilli, table top sales, or a myriad of other things?

Chemical hazard? Does this mean the sirens will sound every time my neighbour sprays his trees and every bit of vegetation on his land?? (He also swears blind that his finca is bio-organic) ::)

Or when they have bonfires without a licence, and throw all kinds of plastic containers onto the fire, and on a windy day like today?
No doubt sirens will upset and make the dogs bark and howl even more.
