If Susan Mckenzie’s mother (Beat your own drum, Letters, September 14) is such a longtime local, she would know that sitting near the biggest pub in Byron Bay is not likely to be a quiet spot to listen to the sea, drumming or no drumming.
Why didn’t Susan and mum take their fish and chips down to Belongil, or to Clarkes Beach, or any of the numerous quiet beaches round Byron Bay instead of choosing a busy tourist spot and then complaining about the noise?

Maybe, what if we put the drummers on the beach where the kite surfers ,umm. kitesurf ?
