The barking has begun

I was in Wales all week and didn't see or hear a single firework. One shop sold sparklers, but I didn't see anyone buying/using them.

As soon as I got back to Birmingham last night it was like driving into Aleppo. Flashes and bangs all over the place. People must be burning a bloody fortune.
 
Fcking shite Is bonfire nite..utter shite! Just been guilt tripped into buying some by daughter queued up for half hour at Tesco's got 2 boxes and some rockets..rocket stick broke after 1st rocket so cnt use anymore of them,1 of boxes fell over so all I got was a minute display fired into the grass and other box lasted 30 seconds..fcking shite now daughter is crying saying is that it!

Last night was a nightmare here out Bruce (the bullmastiff) was going mental.

My misses bought him a massive squeaky toy earlier and so far this evening hes been calm just chewing on it!
 
Remember been I was 14 this other young lad used to hang about with us sometimes tried to scare us with a banger. For anyone who doesn't know what a banger is, it's one of them small fireworks with wick on it, you light it, throw it and it gives off a loud bang! Anyway, where sitting on this 2 ft brick wall with grass field on same level as top of wall. This one cut the wick, sat beside us for few mins and turned around when we weren't looking, lite the wick.

I heard the wick fizzling away quickly, jumped out of the way and a big bang! Next I heard the little f**k*r screaming like a little girl with his hand in the air and putting it in our face screaming my finger! My finger! Stupid c**t cut the wick to short and it blew up in his hand and his finger blew off about 30ft away LOL. He was rushed to hospital in awaiting car then we found his finger in the grass. Looked like something you buy in a toy store. Looked false as f**k just lying there. Got bag if ice, brought it down to the hospital to him but they couldn't stitch it back in because damaged to much.

Some laughs we had at the simple f**k*r trying to frighten us but ended up one finger less lol

Hope it wasn't wasted you'd have to at least zip it up in yer flies and parade about , or have it dangling out yer nose.:sisi:
 
When I was a kid we would collect wood for weeks before?We would have to leave someone guarding the bonny in case a rival gang came when we were out looking and stole our cache. It's not like that now. Kids aren't adventurous anymore. We'd throw tyres and asbestos, gas bottles, everything on it. And we'd do penny for the guy outside pubs?
My wife is a schoolteacher? And one of her ex pupils killed a man and tried to burn him on a bonfire. It was on the telly.
 
My puppies first fireworks night, wondered how it would go. Ears pricked up, run to the window, led down, feel asleep. So far so good, let's see what happens next year.
