The Legendary Graham

Had a close call this year guys which could have been quite seroius had it not been for my choice of PPE.

Most people like to wear fireproof protection or hi vis jackets ect whilst firing but my choice of gear for the last few years has been heavy bikers leathers, lets be honest your not going to set on fire what you really need is impact protection and thats what my leathers provide.

1 week ago whilst firing a show a salute from a Homeland waltz cake didnt lift very well and came back down and exploded a few inches from my left inner thigh. It felt like id been whacked with a lump hammer and had i been wearing just the fire proof boiler suit i would have been left with a rather large hole in my leg, thankfully though due to the leather all's i have a week later is a bruise about 2"x2".

If your of the dying breed with huge spheres that just loves to hand fire or are new to this and are hand firing forget the fireproof boiler suit and get some decent impact protection on yourself.

This was all hand fired, I was on cakes candles and certain shells for sequences including the finale blast Mr Harwood and Wayne were on shells.

The setup.

Oof I made a bit of a racket the other night.

Allrounders finale

Mr Harwood made a fair bit of noise too.
