can they not spend their money on a burberry cap like normal teenagers

Round here they were going off at 6 yesterday evening. Maybe someone should tell them they don't quite have the same "visual" effect when it's still light

Same here, only it was at 3pm up on the Heath next to my house.

Bloody glad to hear the police arriving about five minutes later to tell the little monsters to clear off home and play computer games like all normal 10 year olds!

We've had airbombs at approximately 10 minute intervals, every weekend for the last 3, and they go off from about dark until 1am or so.

How the fek do they afford it?

The police aren't interested, apparently no laws are being broken!

its a disgrace! There should only be controlled ones on actual bonfire night, plus it will crack down on 'accidents'

The new law states it is an offence to let them off between 11pm and 7am, and for under 18s to possess them in a public place. WOW.

Good point. Having been banned, how come these people aren't being 'busted' using the full force of the law as we were promised?

According to an article on the beeb the other day, the Burberry cap has been discontinued due to it's association with "football hooligans". I dont have the link, sorry.

Guess they fail to realise their whole brand is associated with them now.

Edit: Found the link.

Its fun when you're young but a pain when you grow up (not older )

Used to find it fun (school days) but now find it a pain in the **** and view it to be very anti-social and inconsiderate. As a pet owner I would like to see them banned but then I think back to when we messed around with fireworks when younger and conclude I would be hypercrytical to say that.

Not everyone buys their firewors, initially as fireworks.

These types don't even give a flash, it makes no difference if you set them off in the day ..

Nice one Bob, I feel the same way!

You like pets and they like fireworks. The two don't coexist happily, yet neither should be given precedance over the other.

Although personally I have to confess I never grew out of fireworks!

hehe. I never really gave up either....I buy a big box every year but now refrain from using them unless its an annual event (new years, Nov 5th etc). Just down to the consideration of others and mainly pets/animals
