Unhappy warning bad fireworks!!!!

Just let some of the smaller/ meduim rockets that are on sale at lidls,

the bigger one were ok, went up 40-60 ft before going off

the smaller ones have problems, so far 2 out of 5 dont have a lot of propellant

they made approx 20ft before going off. It was like peppering the ground with flares!!!!

how we didnt singe anybody i dont know!!

If you'd have waited until the 5th they'd have been fine.

Indeed Mart .... the Lidl's fireworks only work on 5th November!!

Our neighbour started letting them off, I kindly adviced that it was too early, he said what would happen if he continued .............. I said that the hospital will not take too kindly to removing a box of standards from an arsehole!

BAN THEM!!

Agreed - ban time. Though its not been as bad as previous years, should only be allowed on the night, nearest weekend day, new year and organised displays only.

Well I like fireworks. Don't ban them. Regulate them properly and we won't have too many problems.

IMO you will always get kids/yoofs acquiring fireworks and letting them off wherever they like, even if they bring them back from abroad.
