Me too - didn't use to, but these days they seem to be sat firmly in the land of chav, with chav dads buying little annoying once every 5 minute I'll make a loud pop noise fireworks from the local co-op.

Fuck em - change the law to only properly organised (and big and impressive) displays only.

Just got back from a fireworks party for under 5's - not great advice on the fireworks - the first firework exploded noisily and all the kids started howling ;P

A lot of the fireworks either misfired or just never did much either - next year I may have to make my own...

Do you reckon if I stood in my back garden firing my shotgun people would think it was fireworks?

Although one did go over my house after going off and the stick landed on my car denting the roof (will be able to pull it out)

Oh I think they're quite pretty, but i'm in view of town so can only see organised displays. I'm sure the chavs will be along anytime soon.. I hope they forget to let go of the rockets. I think hoax 999 calls could do the world of good on a night like tonight.

Yer, fireworks should only be sold in batches costing £10,000 or more, fuck all this bang bang blah blah all night, instead of a proper show.

Bonfire Night - the only night when people seem to enjoy their money going up in smoke. If people enjoy it then fair play to them, but I headed to the pics instead.

Fireworks are fun for about 30 seconds. My dog doesn't seem to mind all the noise though. Was like the blitzkrieg walking home from work tonight though.

we had to run a firework show at our rugby club last night. OMG how the chavs flocked to it!!!!!

I really hate them, and h8ed then being on my rugby clubs premises.

That night I was on security and spent lots of time escorting the little twats out of the ground who thought it was their right to be there despite failing to pay the £3 entrance fee.

Highlight of the night was seeing a chav nutted by one of our players on security :) . the chavs complained lots after that happened!!!!!!

Quite like fireworks meself. I just wish people would stick to letting them off on the right night; silly bastards round here start in early October and they're still letting them off now...

Quite like 'em as long as they're only on for this week. My dog, although she is he most cowardly dog ever (she's a rescue dog and won't go near men at all - must have been beaten) and runs away at the slightest noise, isn't bothered at all by fireworks. Last year as I was lighting the enormous ones I'd bought, she was right behind me, couldn't get her in the house as she wanted to be outside with all us lot.

I do like fireworks, when I can actually see them and when they don't seem to be going on all the time for a few nights in a row.
