It's been the same here. More fireworks tonight than there was on Thursday. It has only just quietened down but there is still the odd very loud bang every now and then. Some of them sound like bombs going off!! |

This year does seem to have been particularly bad. I quite like a good organised firework display and there is one on the field at the end of our little cul de sac, starting at 6 pm and finishing early. That was last night and even that was extra loud this year. But there seem to have been a lot of random parties this year, including one that was letting off very loud bangers at 1 am. And we live in a quiet area of town! |

Maggie - next year you could consider making a bit on the side. Rent out chairs in the best viewing room + sell homemade soup or snacks ;-) |

They started up here again about 6.30. I don't normally mind fireworks but, like Maggie, I think this year's are particularly noisy and never ending and they do seem inappropriate for Remembrance Sunday........or perhaps I am just a grumpy old woman. |

It was pouring down here last night so I'm guessing some parties were postponed. |

It's the people with birthdays around the 5th Nov like my dau that are the main problem. |

It would be a funny old world if we regularly banned things merely on the offchance that they may or may not upset/offend etc etc |

Which proves my point - it is not an issue with fireworks, it is an issue with careless/thoughtless individuals. |

Same with guns. Fortunately, they're difficult to buy over the counter. |
