there cannot be many of these folk around now unlike in the 50,s where nearly everyone from senior school upwards would have remembered them in many parts of the country. fireworks were never thought of being a problem back then. two reasons were they were not as loud and only went on anyway for a few hours one day a year. imagine the uproar then if celebrations went on for a week or for every birthday through the year.
