Re: 2004 firework thread
 

fireworks are now banned in our household after a couple went wrong on saturday night. we had a rocket explode as soon as it left its firing tube and another firework that ejects stars and bangs ejected 2 from the side 1 hitting me in the gut and the other hitting a friends hand then fell under the childrens chairs before exploding. we were well over 25mtrs from the fireworks and we were lucky there were no serious injurys as our local hospital was taking in passengers from the train crash and the a&e dept was closed.

No, I live in a house. :dozey:

I think fireworks would be more acceptable if those fireworks making a bang were abolished. I've seen some really lovely displays of fireworks, which are a joy to see and which have the advantage that they don't disturb pets or people trying to sleep.

The thing that annoys me is when people set off fireworks like "bangers" at bedtime or in the early hours of the morning, which demonstrates a lack of consideration for others.

Yeah some people that let them off during the day dont seem to be able to tell the difference between day and night.
Stupid Chavs.
