Nice one Mark.

Check out www.spectacularfireworks.co.uk. Mick, a mate of mine runs the place, and I'm sure he will sort you out via mail order. CrisPDuk & me usually spend a weeks wages with them every bonny night.

Can reccommend the 5ft high mortars, especially if you hate the neighbours.

I know an Irish bloke down the pub who said he could get some "quite spectacular bangers".

Mr Google.com has the answer as always!

My mate uses one of these (can't remember which, of course!) and he gats fantastic ones by Mail Order - they might all be a bit busy at the mo, though

My mate bought a party pack last year (cost about 125quid) then found that the warning in the box said this "do not set these fire works off within 25 meters of a house, to be used only in an open area" or words to that effect

Great stuff chaps - I'll have a mosey around.

We are letting them off on common land so 25 meter radius will be fine.

Tony,

I never buy fireworks unless they say *at least* 25 metres minimum safe distance

If you are careful with setting them up, they are perfectly safe in a back garden. But being careful, I mean by making sure that if something does go wrong, spectators are not going to get a face full.

Cheers

Ian

Believe it or not, I saw some impressive ones in Homebase, including one monster **** off one about the size of a shoe box!

(makes mental note, must go and buy the bugger tomorrow)

You can always do what Iain Banks (the author) and his mates have done. They set up a ltd company to do firework displays, with the sole intention of getting trade accounts with all the big manufacturers. This means they can get hold of serious fireworks for their own use
