Fireworks why its 8.00pm not midnight yet

[MagnamOfChristmasCheer]

I thought the idea was to celebrate the new year not have them going all night.

I think a lot of people with young kids especially let them off early if they won't be staying up.

we had a few left over from Bonfire night so did them about 7.30pm, before the small people got sent off to bed. There were quite a few fireworks going off then in our neighbourhood. I don't really have a problem with it, fireworks are really for children anyway and I'm happy to do them early then pack the children off to bed.

maybe they're doing what my dad and I did one year (1999 NYE actually) - we had a wee drink for every single country that saw in the New Year before us - and finished about 2 hours after we'd seen it in

For the kids of course

[BarbieLovesKen]

for the kids obviously!!

[MagnamOfChristmasCheer]

I can understand for the children.

Got my grumpy head on as they woke my youngest DS up and I was just about to relax for the evening.

Baroque like your style

They're driving me mad here! Dd is only 15 months and is terrified of the noise. Dh and I have been pacing the floor with her since 7pm

Memoo hope this next lot don't wake your Dd
up.

Happy New Year MNers
