Can't see the point, dossing out £50 to see it go up in smoke.
Another random dislike James MaClean of Stoke.
Lest we forget.

And the rest, diwali follows on, usually good for midnight fireworks for a week around here (E13)

Sorry mate - down arrow in error due to iPhone fat finger issues

I agree with you 1,000%

Was lucky previously that my first dog loved them, she’d sit there and watch them in awe and confusion. As her years collated she suddenly became fearful but I blame ourselves for that.

Then we got our current elder stateslady and she’s a Labradoor who don’t take no messing about from anyone or anything. Fireworks? Pah!!!
However we’ve been joined by a young whipper snapper who HATES these whizzing banging flashing things outside and it’s horrible!! Poor little sod.

Why do some people think it is absolutely hilarious to let these off at 1:00am?!? VVankers!!
As for five days.... more like two weeks due to Diwali round our area; then an interlude until NYE

Fcuk it!

Cherish and enjoy life.... this ain't no dress rehearsal

It’s Xmas for chavs, basically.

Middle ground for me would be to ban retail sales of fireworks to the public.

Nothing wrong with organised council fireworks displays once a year. I just sling a sedative wrapped in ham down their gob.

They use fireworks (or at least fire crackers) every day here. They scare away the evil spirits and help bring prosperity.

We all need some of that.

Let's hope James MaClean doesn't get injured by a firework, that'd be a real shame.

Four of us went to the British Army base here in Episkopi to watch the firework display/bonfire. Very enjoyable, loads of people there, bonfire on the beach etc. Total cost was 5 euros (to park the car).

Worked on two displays over the weekend for my Council. I have to say last nights one at Wimbledon Park was excellent. To see the kids getting excited when they see the fair as they enter the park is great - to see the look on the blokes faces as they hand over £50 notes for the families's entrance fee in an act of open wallet surgery is hilarious. That look those of us with kids know only too well.

It's part of our tradition and related to our history. It is much more relevant to us than the American hyped halloween.

However, I agree with Baz and those saying there should be a restriction, on the sale of fireworks, to public displays (and maybe licensed private parties).

I once saw a display set to Jeff Wayne's War of the Worlds in a stadium and there was a firework 'Thunderchild' firing rockets at a firwork Martian tripod it was chuffing marvellous.

Bastile Day in France when we sold Lee Cook to Fulham was pretty special near fontainebeau. Two towns joined together and put on a display by a lake. It was like watching 'Starwars' lying on the grass wistfully gazing at the moonlit sky.

Apart from that most displays are shit.

Making a massive fire is more fun.
Orthodox_Hoop and I did that during the live City game on Sky on the 5th a good few years ago, sadly a lot of the smoke ended up in the stadium.
I blame his late dad who we nicknamed that night 'The Arsonist'.

What dogs? Yeah agree. The f#cking yappy little thing next door spends 51 weeks yapping in the garden at all hours, lovely to get a week's peace while it's cowering in the corner.

It's being so happy that keeps me going.

One of my best mates loves fireworks (yes, he is an adult) and once held a party on November 5th, encouraging all the guests to bring fireworks. Actually, I do like them too.

Little did the guests know that the two of us had worked out a crude but effective way to "network" them: we wrapped fusewire round the heads of matches with the fuse from each firework sandwiched in the middle of the matches.

We laid all the donated fireworks out on an area of open ground - and posted sentries at all the access points - then, at the height of the party, shorted out the two ends of the length of fusewire on a car battery.

The results were absolutely tremendous! Hundreds of pounds worth of fireworks went off in quick succession, probably in under thirty seconds. It was relentless and pretty overpowering, provoking a reaction which was a mixture of astonishment and amusement (and setting off some car alarms in the process).

A bit anti-social really but we filmed it all so we could relive it.

1:30 the house opposite me was letting them off complete with rave music, selfish bastards, but it’s okay as it’s a religious tradition.

I think that there should be one night for fireworks and they should be an official public display. Then people know when to make provisions for their pets.
However, I think the scum who let their dogs crap on the pavements and on our common should be massively fined and banned from having dogs.

That was a total disgrace last night - right the way through to this morning when the last air bomb went off at 4.42am.

Diwali? Bunch of farkin wallys and those who turned Hounslow and Ealing into a Syrian battle field past 11:00pm are a bunch of absolute vvankers.

We'd still be there today if my old man hadn't turned up and turned our modest fire into the great fire of London! Getting a mention on the MOTD highlights was a nice touch, as was seeing the stewards $hitting themselves.

I love fireworks and I loved indoor fireworks - the Cobra, and Puff the Magic Dragon, the cig that smoked itself.
