    Fireworks

    Fireworks have been going off for at least the last hour and a half here. Not kidding, some of them sound like car bombs! Unbelievably loud. Can't be right. It's still 3 weeks to bonfire night! Hate fireworks, they should be banned.

    How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.

      I think individual councils are taking a stance due to the number of complaints. Most are going for the date restrictions for sales accept for the organised events.

            It's that time of year again
            Think I'll stay in tonight
            My dogs are barking
            Shaking scared
            We don't light fireworks in this house
            I hate the way they shoot and sparkle
            It reminds me of a time I often clung to
            And when I see the Catherine wheel turn
            it only leaves me with heartburn

            Cause it's the 5th of November
            It's the 5th of November
            It's the 5th and these fireworks make me blue
            It's the 5th of November
            It's the 5th of November
            It's the 5th and I'm remembering you

            It's cold out there
            The grass is wet
            And I don't care for muddying my shoes
            I can see them from the window
            See them if I want to
            Leave me here with arms that I can cling to
            Cheers are getting louder and louder
            And roll around the sky like thunder
            And later all my friends will come to tell me
            About amazing fireworks they've seen

            Cause it's the 5th of November
            It's the 5th of November
            It's the 5th and these fireworks make me blue
            Cause it's the 5th of November
            It's the 5th of November
            It's the 5th and I'm remembering you

              Agree mate. Diwali I understand, but people have them for ordinary parties now, on any day, and some seem to think that midnight is a suitably apt time to start letting them off.

                Didn't think of that. Hopefully they won't be letting any off tonight then.

                  I don't mind the fireworks and it gets the cats used to them before Nov 5th.
