Fireworks equals Stupid

Budgie:
With you all the way Tim, take them off the shelves.

I thought the law changed a couple of years ago making it an offence to set off firework after about 11pm?
Still have to get the police to be interested in doing something about it though!!  :evil:

Don't know what you boys are complaining about.

For Diwali they started letting off bangers, fireworks and strings of crackers before midday yesterday and there are still some going this morning at 8am.
Despite the noise it has to be said that it was a wonder to see that much gunpowder being launched into the sky for so long, although after the events at the weekend some of the really loud bangs got the attention of the foreigners in the place.
And some of the strings of crackers had to be about 30m long  :shock:

But that aside, I remember when you only used to get fireworks on bonfire night, and maybe new year if you were lucky.  Seems that now people let them off for any excuse (Diwali and such like accepted).  But I have to agree with jas, it wouldn't be so bad if they stopped early.

datalas:
I wonder how much CO2 etc this is producing... and whether we can argue that since we don't play with fireworks then we should be able to drive V8s to make up for the defecit in our CO2 production..

hmm, might not work :?

Btw, anyone else see the news about greenpeace running the rainbow warrior 2 aground and destroying around 100m of rare coral reef ?

old joe:
yep agree with tim all the way

Saturday night we have 3 firework duties ( St Johns ) to be at All organised hopefully no incidents, Milton Keynes main fire work display, fire and bonfire in Wolverton and my own Village fire work display.

Crazy night Fire brigades out on shouts and A & E busy due to burns.

what a great night.

did any body watch Guy Fawkes night on Tv when they actually blew up a mock version of the houses of parliment Best TV ever and Richard Hammond was Gob smacked.
