Isn't it the law that you must be 16+ to buy fireworks ?

Why is there so many little sh*ts near me that get hold of these things and chuck them into the road, at passers by etc.. !? Last night me and the girlfriend were crossing the main road on the way to the supermarket, and as we did so a banger came flying towards us and went off in the middle of the road... Not sure if its just me losing touch or not, but aren't they getting louder too ?! The ******* were nowhere to be seen..

Can't believe just how irresponsible some of these shopkeepers must be selling what are pretty much hand-granades to young kids...

They probably get them from the same place they get their super-strong 99p/l cider.

Now, when I were a lad .......

Thought you had to be 18+?

They probably pay an irresponsible adult a few quid more to get them

Cant agree more, responsible adults like myself, had the little ba**ards throwing lit bangers at our box of fireworks a couple of years ago! Mind you after I chased them up the street with an eight shot ariel bomb in one hand and a rocket in the other they decided discretion was the better part of valour!!!

Roll on Nov 5th cant bloody wait!

EvilKyote

Why don't you point the ******* in the direction of the local speed camera?

the sad thing about kids these days is when we were young we had on the whole a responsible adult behind us so to speak! nowadays kids are having kids and they don't give a ****!! they should all be sent out hunting for land mines!!

we have not had many here yet the police are taking a hard line on the shops selling the bloody things seems to be working at moment

Interestingly they're banned in the Irish Republic - one of the few things I found that was done better.

they were made legal here a few (? 6/7? whatever)years back in good old n.ireland but now in the last few years you now have to buy a license (even to use them at home) which costs like 30 quid which u then need to buy them. all this in an effort to stop the little ***** from getting them

I might sound like a miserable old git, but I would like to see them banned from sale to the public altogether. I don't mind seeing them for a week around the 5th but where I live they start 5 months beforehand and go on for 6 months afterwards
For some reason they think it is funny to fire off air bombs at 2 in the morning for half an hour, just enough time to wake everyone up and p1ss them off! This can go on every night for weeks, you think they would get bored of it but they never do
Fireworks aren't cheap either
