I love fireworks. Watching, shooting and making them.

Does anyone remember the Oban community firework display from last year, where they had a technical problem that set off all the fireworks in less than a minute? :lol:

What's up with this glass? Excuse me? Excuse me? This is my glass? I don't think so. My glass was full! And it was a bigger glass!

This was the firework factory in my village, WAS the firework factory!


The fireworks were stored in eight 20 foot containers in side a shed, after the dust settled the shed and 3 of the containers had vanished, I found the corner of one of them about a quarter of a mile away the next day. The other containers were barrel shaped after the bang. :shock:

I was on my way to see what was happening when the world went BANG! :o

I'm that close I can hear and more or less see them with looking out the window last year I watched from the roof but it's locked while the renovations are going on. It is a free show with music live and recorded I will post some photo's later.

Remember, remember, the 5th of November, the Gunpowder Treason and Plot.

I remembered but there was no fireworks around here :(

Ah well.
