People I know have spent hundreds on fireworks for tonight and just wanted to know are any of you like them or are you against!
Me personally, i think its the biggest waste of money! Obviously supervised they can be nice but none of us can prevent accidents

I used to love them. We had a great display in our village every year, and it was always superb. But one year a firework somehow got into the bonfire and went off. No one was hurt, or even close to being hurt, but it scared the living jebus out of the lot of us, and I've been wary ever since.

Personally I like them the bigger the better. Mortars (Huge shells you bury in a tube in the ground an get lobbed in the air), mines (Buried tubes again, projecting stars upwards) and rockets as tall as a man are all good for me.

I've pondered aboput November the 5th, recently though. No one in Englad seriously considers it a celebration of the triumph over catholicism and it's just a bit of a laugh...All except in the village of Lewes near Brighton, where they burn effigies of the pope as a tradition, I believe. Mind you, last year they all got in trouble because they burned a full size cardboard caravan full of cardboard travellers, and got doen for racial harsassment. W*nkers.

Aye I've thought about it to-most people in ingurland just see it as a bit of criac-i don't like the Guy burning though-but I reckon a few fireworks are alright.
I remember that Lewes lot-they're a total bunch of scum and can't leave the epast behind!
What are all the fireworks in Ireland about? Obviously not Nov. 5th?

I used to live in Brigton, and headed down to Lewes for the fireworks. It was sick. Not only do they burn a model of the pope, but they march through the streets with burning crosses!! Seriously found it really disturbing!!

Fe3k! Sick, sick people-apperntly still hung up on Mary Queen of Scots (

) burning a lot of Protestants there hundreds of years ago....to be honest I think they're just racist w*nkers looking for an excuse

No one tell you that Pooh was a tim?
Some traditions really aren't worth keeping. I can't imagine why they haven't been reined under under the new UK laws outlawing religious hatred.
