No one ever told them "You'll shoot your eye out"?



And pace and pant and pace and pant and pace and pant and pace and pant and pace and pant
:: Continue until 8am ::



Side note.....all fireworks are illegal here except those lame ones like smoke bombs and snakes.
$1500 fine......get to enforcing it coppers or it don't mean S--t!

I haven't liked fireworks since I was a kid.
I get letting kids light a few but people just go overboard and very few are kids.
Had a cockateil commit suicide one year to escape it all.

Poor puppers. And poor you! The fourth was always hell on our old gal.


They are only completely outlawed here during really bad fire seasons. But mortars and other aerial fireworks are always illegal. Doesn’t seem to deter people much here either though. Our police do actually issue fines, but I suspect it is like trying to bail out a ship with a spoon. Too many idiots, not enough cops, and too much else to do.

God Chicky! That is horrible.
Luckily our cockatiel and lovebird don't seem to mind. The chickens couldn't care less.

I am sure the police have bigger fish to fry.....
Probably the only reason I haven't called them in.

OH Sparklers....I never understood those.
"No honey the stove is hot....here hold this 700 degree sparking stick in your tiny hand".

Oh I definitely set my grandma’s lawn on fire as a little tyke
Dad stepped on it and put it out promptly. And my love of sparklers remains undiminished. Although I am slightly better with them now I think

Although, I do prefer the ones with the longer handles.
