Don't know what everyone else here got up to this evening, but in my street about four families got together and we blew up hundreds of dollars worth of fireworks (plus some home made devices tongue.gif) in the street- which was fantastic fun! biggrin.gif biggrin.gif biggrin.gif

I got a few clips on my phone which I'll try and upload some time. Let's hope they aren't banned next year and we won't end up with the same laws as Australia ay?

Yeah and a quite a few others tongue.gif

Heres a quick video I made of last night- only catured the small bangs unfortuantly because I was busy lighting (then running back to the garden) the larger ones.

I had a bit of fun...we had a 3 year old box of fireworks, the 10 shot had 7 pathetic shots!!! The cascades weren't impressive at all, they weren't loud or bright, so I put 20 in the dirt bucket, had all the wicks joining, lit and ran for it......2 seconds of extreme noise and bright lights!!!!

I have found in previous years that a good one is to put strobes on the top of a ten shot or similar so that it gets fired up into the air biggrin.gif
