    After reading our local paper about the towns big fire work display I am really pissed off! Not only does it go on about how generous our mayor is and the display he is putting on for us........hang on a minute are you telling me he is paying for them and it has nothing to do with the flucking £196 p/m i hand over for your rediculously priced council tax?!?!?!
    How generous of you Mr mayor!

    Oh hang what's that? Oh you are going to charge me £15 per adult and £9 per child
    Hang on though my children are young 1 is 2 years and 1 is 9months, yes we will still rob you of £9 for each of them too!

    What a generous man!

    Jeanette kicked off big time over the amount I spent on fireworks one year so I video'd them then the year after invited family around and ran the tape. I then explained to everyone that she was too tight to let me buy the real thing and the problem went away.

    As I've aged and......matured I do find myself wondering how unlicensed explosives can be sold to an untrained and, face it, largely stupid public.

    Well I took the family 20miles up the road to a free show :) they do however ask for donations at the end if you wish too, I donated the same amount as it would of cost to go to our show (out of spite)
