Fucking fireworks still going off

[WeekendCarbs]

The sooner they are banned from public sale the better

They are very dangerous. I've always been surprised you can buy them in britain, in some cases with your weekly shopping.

We've had 9 consecutive nights where we live. It's been doggy stress hell. Especially tonight.

Same here - the ones that make the ground shake.
Incomprehensible really
Sad for wild nocturnal animals and our pets but at least they are safe and warm indoors

My eldest has autism but thankfully she seems to enjoy fireworks. I know a lot of other kids with learning difficulties and special needs don't cope so well with the bangs and noise.

Luckily in my area it's been quite wet recently so we haven't had it as bad as usual.

I'm an NT adult and they're making me jump. They're just at the right intervals to think they've stopped too. Ridiculous.

We have them going on here. My normally chilled out cat is really unhappy.

Same here. I live in a row of small Victorian terraced houses with small gardens, surrounded by streets of small Victorian terraced houses with small gardens.
Can't see how its safe to set them off. They've been every night for the past 2 weeks and some nights haven't stopped until past midnight

Same here, it's freezing and pouring with rain too

The bastard banging away as I type 😂

Here as well. They are so loud. I think it should be illegal to sell them to the public. Just public displays on the 5th and that should be it.

They are really pretty though. You should be thankful that you can see them without going out to a cold display. Just can't please everyone but no need to act like it's crime of the century! I've been doing fireworks without any complaints for the past few nights and even had a thank you!

Christ but some people like to moan. Yeah I think everything I don't like should be banned. There's a long list and whingers especially whingers with dogs are at the top.

Can't see how it's safe to set them off.

Apart from looking out of your window at the non carnage and non damage, you mean? That type of being unable to see?

What about whingers with a toddler waking up screaming every half hour ? Oh pleaseee can I be on your list? And @sahej your on a wind up tonight aren't you ? Ever thought you had no complaints because we are all inside trying to consol babies and animals while your repeatedly letting off fireworks this week?

Yeah, I know this was three days ago, but OP you are lucky they were not going off at 1.15 am. like here.

but the think they have stopped and randomly start again thing is shit. we had more fireworks going off tonight.

*console

It's almost as though other people don't live their lives based on what you want at all! The nerve.

You must be some kind of stupid to not realise it isn't about what we want -it is about the distress we see caused to people/animals that we can't explain the situation to.

Does not letting off fireworks on 10th november cause distress to anyone ? No. It's about being considerate of everyone around you.

Let’s ban outside cat ownership while we’re at it. If you want a cat keep in in your house. Don’t buy a creature that will come in my garden, dig up my plants, and shit all over the place. I get that all year round. Your cat has to put up with fireworks for a few nights.

I don't have an outdoor cat so she doesn't shit in your garden. She still hears fireworks from indoors. And she's a chilled out kind of cat. Being freaked out by inconsiderate tossers.

What about foxes? Badgers? I've got a big arse badger that knocks its way through my garden fence at night shall we ban them? Now, I don't have any cats but that is one ridiculous comparison. Perhaps make a thread about it though ?
I'm pretty sure it's not "a few nights" either as of it were, you wouldn't see threads such as this every bloody year. It's weeks.

I've got a big arse badger

You want to get someone to take a look at that, son.

@RLOU30 you should have thought about that before then. Did you think fireworks would stop existing just because you had a kid and got a pet. If you can't see my good advice don't read it
