Bush Tucker Man:
We're just waiting for the injuries to start at work :evil:

I remember one lad a few years ago decided (presumably?) that they weren't powerful enough...........

So, he poured the contents of several into a tin-can.
Now whether they reacted with each other, the can (the type of metal?) affected the composition, or he lit it - I don't know.

But, it left him with a thumb & little finger on one hand, shrapnel in his abdomen & throat and burns

Thankfully he survived.
I believe that once he'd recovered, he offered to tour schools in the lead-up to Bonfire Night & tell the kids that he didn't think it could happen to him.
And not to be daft & play around with the things

Judging by SGH A&E they already have. Managing to avoid all firework related duties this season as I had more than enough last year.

I like making things go bang so it doesnt bother me. Plus in S'oton we get them every other weekend from the cruise liners.

lenster:
what can you do its the 'festival of light' everybody has the right to enjoy their own festivities. get your own back on the 31st dec. personally i buy the biggest and loudest firework i can and wait until it all goes quiet! my dog is a terrier he loves the bangs, he's also a racist, nothing to do with me he's a dog!

jalopy joe:
Well, Rocketman and I will be working hard on Saturday evening, pleasing some of you and upsetting some of you.  Hopefully though we are the right people doing it the right way, in the right place and at the right time.  Mind you the size of some of the stuff we work with, the wrong way is not an option.
