Fireworks.Yea or Nay.
We have a big dog but he is frightened of the bangs and flashes caused by fireworks, even when in the house(dog not firework), it's only the 2nd of Nov and we already had to endure 2 hours of panicky dog, should fireworks be banned totally orallowed just on the 5th at official events?
When the council run official do on the 5th takes place we load dog into the car and head out of town for 1/2ish an hour till the display is over so there is no problem with Archies nerves.

Our dog is fine with them. However, fireworks made available to any over-18 idiot who wants to buy them?
Nope! There's not much good about that.

Ban them. No way would you ever introduce putting explosives in the hands of chavs, so why tolerate it because of tradition? If people want to see fireworks, go to a display.
While I've got the grumpy hat on, ban Trick or Treat too. Bloody American shite anyway. What parent in their right mind would send their kids out begging and knocking on strangers doors. Rant over

If people walked about with explosives any other time of the year they would be liable to arrest . Yet for 5 or 6 days before and after 5th November it's OKWe also encourage every budding fire raiser to legally hone their skills and build absolutely massive bonfires then expect firemen to risk their lives to bring them under control . Ban them altogether I say.

It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!
