It's like Operation Shock and Awe outside my house at the moment Wee Agnes , my 70 + year old next door neighbour is terrified and her cat has vanished causing more worry. Am I a killjoy or is this night just an excuse for eijits to legitimately make a racket?    |

I'm currently making a fruit punch for a party.
1 70cl bottle of Vodka
1 70cl bottle of White Rum
1 70cl of White Wine.
4 litres of Orange Juice
2 litres of Five Alive
1 litre of Cranberry Juice
1 litre of Apple Juice.
Numerous fresh and canned fruits.
It's only one night a year. (Unless you live in the middle East...)

The very last hand of the night goes to Dewi James, who finds ACES and talks Raymond O’Mahoney into calling his all-in preflop bet of 15k. “If I had AQ, I’d call!” says Dewi. Raymond calls holding pocket 66’s.

Aww c'mon.... Fireworks rock. I spent an hour gently freezing in Harlesden watching their 'Don't Try This At Home' public display. My ears hurt and I keep seeing floating lights in front of my eyes but I'd do it every day if it were socially acceptable. Blowing small things up which make exciting showers of sparks is pure entertainment. And Dana's cat is so old I don't think it can hear anything anyway. Sorry about your neighbour though.

Fireworks should be banned, there's no upside imho of course.

They should only be sold to organised events. I know there are many responsible people who have the right to buy them, but unfortunately there are also many Neds who aren't responsible enough to be trusted. As a result banning them from being sold in shops is the only solution to this problem.
I was on a Bus the other day and two guys in their 30's got on with a big box of fireworks. They had just bought them and one said to the other " I am going to try this one when I get home". It was 11:30 am and not even Nov 5th. If adults think like this, what chance do their Kids have. None. The Kids see this as acceptable and unfortunately we are plagued by them for another generation. The cycle continues.

I agree but atleast you were fortunate they didn't light them on the bus (which does happen!).
