Fireworks!
Yep one of those threads again! November the 5th seems to come round earlier and earlier every year, the kids (teens) round here were thinking it was hilarious to mess with fireworks, first they threw one into the house accross the roads garden, when they got no reaction, they blew the letter box off when when a couple of lads came out then thought it was funny they actually posted a lit firework through the letter box i saw it blow up in the hall of the house :eek:. this house recently became vacant and now druggies frequent there so nobody was bothered as its not actually anyones home but a council house, i cant go and say anything coz mine is a private house and i want to keep my car and windows, and wouldnt want a firework display inside!
Shops shouldnt sell firework they should be kept for displays.:mad: |

Re: Fireworks!
I used to enjoy bonfire night .... looked forward to it for weeks ... sitting on the street corners collecting pennies for the guy, saving the pennies and buying fireworks .... don't tell me that the fun is gone out of another tradition.:(

I can't remember the last time kids made a guy. Probably when I was rearing my young back in the 80's. Nowadays the kids probably think the guy is someone to be bashed on head and thrown on bonfire. |

I have a stick of dynamite and I am going to explode it in the street.
Am I a terrorist? What is the difference between that and fireworks? Ban them from general sale now! Make bonfire night an enjoyable occasion. |

Re: Fireworks!
To me there is nothing better than an organised fireworks display properly run by responcabe people, the fact that kids can run round the streets with what is in all intents and purposes bombs is crazy When I was young it was penny bangers, 2 penny cannons, but today they cost the earth, and the noise they make is deafening.:(

Re: Fireworks!
A similar thread pops up around this time every year. I can't remember, however, if I previously posted the story of me and the lads and the cat with the bangers tied to it's tail, then stuffed in a guy which was in turn placed on top of the bonfire. It produced fasinating pyrotechnics with sound. Maybe Mick or one of the other moderators could guide you to the full, unabridged version of the tale. If not, then maybe I didn't post it on here.

Re: Fireworks!
Private sale of fireworks should be banned. Too many people get injured and too much damage gets caused.

I lived a couple of doors away when that happened, Don't recall you being at home...but everyone else there thought it was a bomb, the noise was unbelievable.:eek:
Was actually gonna post about it till I realised it was the same event! |

Police had it boarded up for me. Abbey, who I was insured with insisted that a banger could not cause that amount of damage. Changed their minds when I produced the police and Observer reports and paid up. |

One of my older sons thought you were in there and ran inside to see if you were hurt. Proud of him at the time. But seeing as nobody realised exactly what had happened....was a bit of a dodgy thing to do! Funny paper never mentioned that bit... :) |
