There was abit of a discussion last year about nuisence neighbours. At the end of the day on the 5th of november its your right to let of fireworks aslong as they are consumer ones and not too late. No authority in the country will honour there complaint on bonfire night. You are well within your rights to let them fireworks of so do so with pride !! if that was my neighbours ide go and get the biggest i could buy, infact scrap that ide make a few cheeky flash bangers to kick the night off with a right boom !!!!!! 6 gram of confined flash is awesomley loud :ph34r:

I remember years ago now when i was in single figure ages my old man having crate loads of fireworks including shells and some really crazy flying spinning thingies, ufo's and strange looking rockets that really did look like a real rocket with a bit of unscertain flight path !!! rip raps, jumping jacks ha ha and the old atom bomb and thunder king airbombs !!!

We used to have massive bonfire parties and i mean the hole street at our house for the party a true social event. These days i watch the night sky on nov 5th and see probably only 1 house per 10/15 actually let anything off. It worries me badly over the future of the tradition as the youngsters today are not all that interested in fireworks because they havent been brought up with them. Bonfire night turning into a 10 min display at the local park and thats it home t.v then bed.

Sorry for the rant just had to let it out ha ha, but yea lets have a bigger and better 5th this year than last and make that the case for the future !!!!!

I've just seen recent posts in this thread. I don't know if this a wind up or not but it's completely unacceptable and I won't stand for it here. The member in question knows who they are. Their future posts will now be moderated by us until such time that we are satisfied, which in this particular case may not be for a very long time indeed.

Right, I have changed my list now of what I HOPE to get, due to Firework Warehouse updating their website. Any recommendations would be great, thanks!

Starburst- £19.99 (Absolute)

Lunar Legends £14.99 (Brothers)

Sunset- £10.99 (Absolute)- Unsure about this one yet.

army- £12 (Cube)

Rocket pack- £10

£30 more worth of barrages

I decided after a good think that I just want to buy around 5 or six main pieces rather than buying mines etc, if I get more cash nearer to the night I will buy a selection box from a seasonal seller (its the lighting the of the fireworks thats some times the fun part :) )

Cube, Brothers and Absolute....Not much wrong there at all ! Why not spend that extra £30 on a decent selection box (Brother's Companion
for example) and then if you get some more money nearer the time, get a few more barrages...After all, you said yourself; "Sometimes it's the lighting of the firework that's the fun part" ;)

Thanks for the reply :)

Yeah, I would love to get the companion box as Ive heard some brilliant reviews about it, only problem is is that the firework warehouse where I will probably going to buy my pyro don't stock it according to their website. Although if there is another box that looks decent or Ive heard any reviews about I will definitely get it instead of the extra barrages!

Selection Boxes tend to tell their own story..For example, 'The Big Boom' slection box is £45 for 26 fireworks..That's roughly £1.70
each firework...You know yourself what you'd get paying £1.70 for a firework...Nuff said eh? But if you want said Selection Box for
reasons you've mentioned then that's fair enough.

I, myself, have had the Companion box in the past but these days that doesn't suit my little firework's parties. My kids are older
and more people are now invited and coming. Therefore I have the Wild Cube Box to get the party rolling and move onto much bigger
and better things...I'll be using up my last two King rockets though & although they'll be fantastic to watch, I'll be sad knowing
I won't be having them again...Roll on November!

PS- I sent you a PM :)

Just wondering if anyone on here has ever fired Parallel Universe from Black Cat. Have been searching on the internet and have found it in a few different packages but cannot find a video of it anywhere! So, was just checking if anyone has seen it/ fired it and would be able to tell me if it was any good.

Also, has anyone heard or lit Dynamine by Rage fireworks? Looks like a strange firework, can't work out if it five different mines or just one multi shot firework, any help would be appreciated. Thanks - (link: http://www.thefirewo...products_id=374 )

Thanks Dan

Had PU by Black Cat before now and for the price it's one of the better Black Cat products...sorry I can't show you video of it.

Rage Fireworks are(I think) a product of Absolute - I doubt if one mine would cost £15 odd quid, why not just give the guy a ring
and ask him? Having said that, when a supplier is selling something at BOGOF, it's usually because they can't sell the product in
the normal manner. Or that they've picked a load of them up VERY cheaply and they are still making a decent profit, even with it
on BOGOF.

the firework warehouse


Is that the St Helens one? They are doing a run of demos, good for them.
OK, interest in fireworks to be resumed in the spring. It usually is. ;)
