Call me a spoilsport..

Im not that keen on firework noise and feel really bad for animals as a lot are scared to death by them.

Years ago we had explosives on Guy Fawkes night, and new years night.

Now, we have explosives in the hands of children, from October 31st, until around January, or when they have used them all up.

Its a disgrace and about time it was stopped.

I'm not sure how old you are but it's a lot harder for kids to get decent fireworks these days. Long gone are the days of 'Super Aero Bang' airbombs etc. being sold at the local newsagent. We used to take them to bits, remove the 'bang' part and blow all kinds of things up with them 20 years or so ago. :D
 
Atleast you don't have a party going on next door :( I gotta be up at 8 and there's no way I'm gonna get any sleep tonight
 
I won't call you a spoilsport, personally i think fireworks are a waste of resources and money, as is the whole idea of halloween, poor stupid excuse for the shops to extract money off people (mainly parents) for a load of crap that doesn't exist.

I'm cheerfull eh? :D

You are joking right?

They are not even fireworks today.

They are explosives.

My 13 year old daughter can dress up and get them, so NO, it ain't harder.

Open your eyes and ears man.

Has she actually tried, or is that an ever so slight exaggeration?

As for the thread subject, I live in close proximity to Croydon. I am used to hearing constant screaming what what sounds like gunshots every Saturday night :D

You can get a gun, knife, fags, booze, at any age, and now you question the availability of fireworks(explosives).

Get real.
 
I don't understand the fuss. for a few days a year there are a few more explosions outside, unless you go outside it isn't really that annoying. people need to get over it. It does my head in how someone tries to get it banned every year.

My grandma goes on about it like it is the end of the world, yes it was bonfire night again, yes there were a few bangs yawn.
 
They are pretty annoying - I don't mind them on bonfire night but whenever it gets within 2-3 weeks of the night you'll feel like you're in a warzone :p
 
I have a few fireworks ready...just for the kids you understand:D

Also Busa, those look awesome. I'd probably mash them all up into one huge firework and try and blow a hole in space and time!

If you can show me somewhere that I can buy airbombs of the quality we had 20 years ago I'd be very appreciative. :)

I thought fireworks had been ruined by the nanny state but if what you say is true I was thankfully wrong.
