Guy Fawkes

[kemosabe]

Well its that time of year again.

So whats everyone up to tonight, anything interesting.
I'l be out next to bomb fire hopefully with a burger an a beer in hand.

Have a good one if your out at a display or in your back garden, just remember to be careful with those sparklers.

Dude... you're like 4 days early...

I can't stand this time of year to be honest. Except the weather - the weather is great at the moment. Absolutely love it. November 5th/October 31st on the other hand, are both huge wastes of time/effort/money celebrating nothing particularly worthwhile. (imo anyway)

[kemosabe]

Silly me... theres quite a big display goin on tonight round my way so I kinda assumed some people here might be doing something aswell. Week early eh... silly council

[Howard]

I agree with Theo.

I get to hear my own god damned fireworks display because of the berks who live round here who think it's funny to let off bloody great fireworks in their back gardens thus annoying the neighbours and giving my mum's birds a right fright!
Just look out my window for my fireworks display!


Haloween is just another farce for people to scrounge stuff as well, one group came to my door and weren't even dressed up and my mum still gave them some food! (I refuse to answer the door to them, too much effort).

It's pathetic really kids turn up a week early for trick or treat, and your neighbours (who always think of people other than themselves ) have a fireworks display in there back garden 2-3 weeks before the 5th of november..

i hate fireworks, i hate fires too. I cant walk anywhere at this time of year, in the fear of losing an eye/limb/random piece of viatal body organ due to stupid prats throwing bangers and dropping fireworks out of the 3rd floor flat balconys \o/ they should only sell fireworks on the 4th of november if they HAVE to, but its a total waste of time and money and i wouldnt care if they just scrapped it altogether.

"If I could work my will," said Scrooge indignantly, "every idiot who goes about with 'Merry Christmas' on his lips, should be boiled with his own pudding, and buried with a stake of holly through his heart. He should!"
Quote from Ravens "scrooge" Nest

"You may be an undigested bit of beef, a blot of mustard, a crumb of cheese, a fragment of underdone potato. There's more of gravy than of grave about you, whatever you are!"

Darkness is cheap, and Scrooge liked it.

Howards just miffed that his local shoop refused to serve him with aero bangers

fireworks are too much of a townie pursuit tbh

[Howard]

LMAO @ Steve and Ravens Nest.

They're all right IN MODERATION. But they've been going since FIVE O CLOCK THIS EVENING

[Korky]

last night i was teeing off some fireworks at the 16th tee of the golfcourse i live near and of course there was the issue with eggs

[shiato storm]

well, its that time of year that despite all the warnings at least on kid is gonna get a firework blasted in thier face. It happens every year - does no one learn??!

p.s. I like standing there going 'ooh, ahh, ooooooooh'

[kemosabe]

Personally Fireworks should be illegal to the public.

I mean the amount of injuries that occur, the noise (If your neighbours decide to do thier own), and the underage little twirps that think its a good idea to aim a firework at someone.
I doubt they'l ever become ilegal, tax reeping goverment.

You'l never be able to beat the excitement of a proper display though.
