Well you can tell it's September, inconsiderate people have started letting them off. It's like this every year now. Scares my pets whitless. I'm sick of it. What's happened to just having them on Bonfire night :rant:

When I moved to Sheffield I couldn't believe how far in advance fireworks were going off and how long they continued to be let off after fireworks night. Must be a northern thing. :huh:

I totally agree. I have pets and two young kids and it is very annoying.
Bonfire Night seems to last forever

Its true. When I went out early this morning I did get that run upto Christmas feeling!

I think the OP has a point though. Fireworks at organised at displays are great on one night. Let off by little chavs all year round is annoying though.

I agree loopylass.:thumbsup:

I am sick of the people setting them off all the time, i have a neighbour who decides to start his parties at around 10pm and then sits there all night setting off fireworks and throwing his empty lager bottles in the Greenbelt behind us, whilst playing LOUD music and shouting like drunken idiots do.

I have two cats who have to be locked in at night and two kids who would like some sleep.

Also how long will it be until we hear on the news about someone "Blowing Up" a post box or telephone box.

The original tradition for fireworks night was to "Burn" an effigy of Guy Fawks (On november the 5th), then later on Fireworks were added.

90% of fireworks that you hear in the day and night are set of by Lowlife ASBO's who need to get a life (to quote newvanman) not the respectable people who are trying to live an honest and quiet life.

I am sure that most of the people who thinks its ok would have something to say about it if one of their loved ones got injured.

Also why now do people have to set them off at weddings, birthdays, Anniversarys & Newyears.....

I thought we were in England / Great Britain, NOT China.

I really hate them too especially because of pets. I used to have to give my dog tranquilisers because he was petrified of the bl**dy fireworks. Sadly my dog is doggie heaven now.

They do seem to get earlier & earlier and louder & louder every year. Some of them even shake the house.

ahaha :hihi: like this post tom.

On topic though, if people 'celebrated firework night' as earlier as shops 'celebrate Christmas' it would be far worse.
