Ah that was Betty don't mention that
Her husband owns a baseball bat

Even sparklers make a noise. It's the bangs that launch them into the air and then another to eject the stars. I don't think public displays of ground based coloured flames are going to be overly popular.

It probably is time to only allow public displays though with every Tom Vladimir and Mahomed having birthday fireworks.

He seemed to be a greedy chap. Remember all the freebies?
Indecisive too. Remember all the U turns.

There were reasons for him becoming the most unpopular PM ever.

Hoping Liffy is OK and the vet doesn't charge too much. 

It's about 26 °C outside here in Northumberland just now, but quite bearable
indoors. My heart goes out to you all in the warmer areas.

Hope Liffy is OK.

A few spots of rain..  Not going out..

All the best for Liffy...

Agreed Tabby OR, they could start using the silent ones. 🤞

Oh dear it seemed that someone moaned
Not to me it was the police they phoned
The police turned up all lights blaring
Jumping in the pond, they're all for sharing
And under a bush someone groaned !!

I don't like fireworks - never have.  At one time, though, they only happened once a year - on bonfire night.  There was time to make sure our animals were safe.  Now they are set off for Guy Fawkes, Divali, Christmas, New Year, birthday parties - any old excuse and there are rockets screeching in the sky, without a thought for terrified pets, farm animals, and wildlife.  Not to mention the Injuries and/or damage they cause in irresponsible hands.

While I am not so much of a 'kill joy' that I would like to see them banned - I would like them to be restricted to public displays on designated dates.

Apparently, Miliband's camp is the only ones who are suggesting he will chose Miliband.

He's not PM yet but........ 

Starmer seems a decant chap, but he hadn't a clue..
