Please Take Care! It's that time of the year again......fireworks, sparklers and huge bonfires. This weekend will be the start of the big noisy build up to the 5th....... Most of the accidents at this time of the year happen to children,. so please take care with your little ones. Also, make sure your all animals are safely indoors after dark. Every year animals suffer physically and mentally during November as a result of noisy firework displays and inconsiderate people. It is a pity there aren't more considerate neighbours around like Moli's neighbour who took the trouble to find out how her pets reacted to the noise......and then decided to hold her firework celebrations elsewhere.... Enjoy yourselves but please stay safe everyone!

Yes Mummy! lol! Honestly though, you have an excellent point there Mags. I have bought a little £3.98 box of garden fireworks for the girls. OH will set them off at the back of the garden, and they have no loud bangers. Apart from the fact Hayley hates them, I know a few gardens up have quite a few dogs and I wouldn't like to scare them. My 3 dont bat an eyelid as I found out a few nights ago when across the road set off the loudest fireworks I have ever heard (I actually got OH to run outside, I thought there had been a gas explosion). |

Well, the firework display we'd booked to go to has been cancelled. Someone from the park called with a rather mysterious message of 'threatened safety and security issues' . . . which is all a worry so I'm glad they cancelled!! We will get a box of non-banging fireworks for the back garden and have a 'winter barbie'  I hope everyone has fun in whatever they decide to do, and Mags - thanks so much for the valuable warnings! |

I've had to bring my cats in tonight as someone is setting fireworks off now. Unfortunately I can't find Salt so am off out to call her again in a bit. Just 2 streets away from us we have a rugby club and they are doing a display along with the fire station. The kids can see loads from their bedroom windows. A nice cheap display and saves me about £7.50 Fortunately we've not had any bad accidents where fireworks are concerned over the past few years. |

I've learned something today..knew the 5th of November was Guy Fawkes Day, but had no idea it was so celebrated with fireworks, etc! And that explains the strange avatars tht Mags and Moli have...wondered what they were about  . Have a safe one! |
