Like the sound of this! Don't like the sound of more cut backs, the day 1.3G goes is the day I give up, making the most of it while it's still here.


Hum...

Well, at the moment, there is 1.3G , and generally speaking it's available around the same price as 1.4G.

So all is good.

However, if a day came when 1.3G was only available at much higher prices , or was gone altogether, I'd certainly cut back on my pyro spend.
OK, interest in fireworks to be resumed in the spring. It usually is. ;)

They might only get 500g cakes in the US, but they also get 3" tubes, and 1.75" reloadable shells! to make up for it and the ability to link fireworks together!


Indeed- and they still have a lot of the smaller items- crackers, spinners, titchy rockets etc.
And stuff like this : 16 000 strip

The government are just trying to kill our industry off much like they did with the cotton industry and many other British industries. Then when more people are looking for jobs they complain. Whats with the noise reductions all time and weight reductions of compounds. It is annoying and a dam right betrayal of the pyro industry which used to be massive yesteryear until it got wiped out much like our cotton industry by opening the borders for cheap foreign imports.
fireworks is my aim setting of is the game

With regard to consumer fireworks, I think there has only been 1 recent piece of legislation that dealt with noise, the 120 db limit- I think this came in in 2004.

The limits of flashpowder, and "flashpowder like compounds" are based on the (perceieved) hazards.
