Dogs scared by noisy fireworks
Why, at 10.45pm do I have to sit with Sky News on full blast so that my dog doesn't have a heart attack? Why?; So that Wayne and Sharon can take little Chelsea Beckham to see the fireworks.

Fireworks are a menace. Full stop. Loud, irritating and worthless in every respect. Have fireworks become the new ego extension for the lower classes? 'Look how big mine is' and 'See how loud that was'...

| 11-10-2009 | "Personally I would ban the sale of fireworks to the general public and restrict their use to professionally organised displays. They're invariably better anyway. To have a decent display at home you'd need to spend a fortune. Why not just spend £3-5 a head and go to a proper disp...more | MikeP |
| 11-10-2009 | IK sounds like some ponsey, middleclass w***er who needs a good solid kick in the head. Sadly though, I doubt we'd be able to locate his head, what with it being lodged so far up his a**ehole!
I don't think this gripe could be anymore generalised if IK tried. Then again... | The Truth |
| 30-4-2009 | I have no problem with fireworks on a given night, early in November. I do have a problem with random people letting off fireworks at random times and dates. Pets & wildlife have a hard enough time of urban living, without being subjected to the whims of people who have a 'laugh' at the ...more | Kryton |

I do not live next door to you.
I am sure we are both happy with that arangement. | Retro |
| 24-4-2009 | you are all mean wanting a ban on fireworks, mean nasty and really unworthy of living in the UK, why dont you just get out, go on get out and take your things with you, I ban you. | bgger you all |
| 29-11-2008 | citizen smith , I broadly agree with your point, but would stop short of a total ban, merely because in the past ten years, the present government has erroded our "freedoms" so much, that if we banned everything that caused us annoyance, it would be just another nail in the coffin of "...more | Hawkeye |
| 24-11-2008 | why do we have to put up with stupidity .ban all bonfires and fireworks .only allow supervised bonfires with fireworks on nov 5th . safety comes first and fireworks are a pain In the ass on housing estate's . the children who seem to have no money buy them .absolute waste of time .

| 08-11-2008 | I am also annoyed by fireworks and would dearly love to ban them. I have a dog who is terrified & who won't go out to relieve himself. He is now reluctant at any time to go outside whereas at one time he used to be first out. I work in a school and see children who are excited by them - isn&...more | Annoyed Dog Owner |
| 07-11-2008 | Not so many years ago, Bonfire night or if you will Guy Fawkes, or even fireworks night was "celebrated" on the 5th of November, regardless of whatever day it fell on. But in recent years, it appears that date is now insignificant because people sem to have fireworks displays or let off fi...more | Hawkeye |
| 06-11-2008 | Why, oh why do we have to put up with this menace every year? My cats spent most of the evening last night (most of this week actually) shivering in the corner, too afraid to go out. Why can't people go and see their fireworks at a public display or at least take them to somewhere isolated and...more | Emma |
| 05-11-2008 | To all those who advocate banning/time-restricting the sale of fireworks - fair enough I understand why you feel the way you do.
The problem is simply banning them won't address the issues fully.
If properly made licenced fireworks are not available people might be tempted to make/use home mad...more | Safety First |
| 16-10-2008 | I hope the sad story posted by Freddie is enough to make some people think before posting facile comments like some of those made below.
I reiterate my point about fireworks being 'appropriated' by the anti-social element of society, a true shame for those of us, children and adults alike,...more | Spuddy |
