Hmm, now suffering from headache and ringing in ears after the excessive size of some of the stuff that went up in smoke from my back garden earlier.

I won't say how much I spent but when the shop gave me one firework worth £40.00 just a a discount, it'll give you a clue that it was a serious amount. Still, it seemed to silence the neighbour's whose pitiful "sparklers" paled into insignificance. And the cries of "more, more" from the invited audience suggested a high level of enjoyment.
