Back in the day before Health and Safety stepped in. Perhaps for good reason. People lost hands and eyes every year. Sparklers! My mates and I sticking a lighted banger in an empty fisherman's maggot tin, putting the lid on quick and watching the tin leap up into the air. Fortunately I still have my hands and eyes.
Yah.....I remember the day my parents jumped in my shizz because they found my little brother's pot stash......now that was electiric! Not sure why I got lit up (excuse the pun).....but the fireworks! Impressive.
My aunt and uncle had really good fireworks this year. Better than town. Ours were...lacking. prolly cause I wasnt there to help pick them out this year
I always got fireworks for Christmas and enjoyed them. My main problem was starting grass fires with Roman candles. A fried lost three fingers to a cherry bomb.
