What a waste. Last summer saw the local debris transformed into a beautiful landscaped garden. Bonfire night saw it reduced to a blackened waste littered with mattress coils and half burned sofa's.
Some people just don't want to live in pleasant surroundings.  |

We're lucky and only hear fireworks here rarely. There were a only a couple on November 5th and that has been it so far this year until now. Tonight they are going off but I don't imagine they will be too late. There was a great organized display in the village but I didn't go, I stayed in the warm and watched it through the window.

If this it not a reason to BAN fireworks I dont know what is..
Just on the news a mother of 9 in Cornwall was killed in a fire when a firework was put through the letterbox.
The police have launched a murder enquiry..

Well the criminals only got what they had on hand  . If not fireworks, they had just put petrol with paper.
I think there is a lot of money there, that is why it is a "recreative" activity, it doesnt matter some people are burnt or killed every year. I wonder how these inspectors that are always watching the possible accidents (you see the ridiculous measures as wearing googles to play conkers) and they cannot spot the dangerosity of fireworks. |

Still at it !
one of my cats has HCM (heart disease) last night someone let off a banger near our house and it really frightened him. he is on medication but its a trial as there is no known treatment for his condition that is proven to work. he also has a heart murmur, but this is not as serious at the moment. where as the HCM is only a matter of time.
i mean its the 8th, i bet this goes on for another week at least !

spose we should all have metal letter boxes incase any moron decides to endanger lives. we're lucky we live away from this kind of moron (we hope) and we dont actually have a letter box in our door. |
