Fireworks

[sleah]

Anyone seen signs of Bonfire night letting up yet?

It's still going full tilt round here - just had about half an hours worth of bangs. Bloody brain dead Chavs:mad:

Same here, but it is not for 5th Nov. This weekend all the Hindu, Sikh and Tamil folks are celebrating Diwali, the festival of lights.

We had some seriously loud fireworks going off last night, really deep bassy ones, sounded good, and lit up the whole sky, but its a bit late really...

Few occasional ones here in Stoke still being let off - though they can't do better than the signal flares some muppets were sending up on Nov 5th - though I didn't see the lifeboats sent out!

Just in case you missed Robbie's explanation

The date of this varies from year to year, but is usually a week or so either side of Bonfire night.

1/2 ton of gun powder does make an interesting mess.......:eek:

Intentions and whether or not you speak them out loud are different things ;)
