The most enjoyable part of fireworks must be searching through catalogues and shops getting a copious ammount of fireworks and letting rip on your garden and seeing all the neighbours pulling faces and curtain twitching.

Doing displays is good but requires planning - getting a huge cake and letting it off for the sake of it can often be more fun.

As for watching displays they are never as much fun as doing your own.
