Health and Safety goes out the window..

Post by kenny » Mon Nov 05, 2007 10:51 pm

In our current nanny state climate I was fortunate to attend the best bonfire night I have been to in years, lots of food, free booze and non stop carnage for about 4 hours.

This is our bonfire from Saturday night.

Image

The fire brigade turned up...

Image

but they were happy that it was under control :shock:

Image

It was a proper brilliant night, none of this health and safety crap, rockets were lit with a firework in one hand and a glass of wine in the other seeing as there was copius amounts of free booze.

I dont remember getting home :-D

Good night then ? :D

Bondies seem to be getting less and less every year.

About to sound old but .... I remeber when it was a big event and people were trusted not to make a complete arse of it.

:D Top work 8)

Our local one was banned due to 'H&S fears' and protests from religious wackos.

So the council built one and shone some lights on it instead

It was really really good, honest, although my marshmallow is taking ages :roll:

it was a very good night :)

once the fire had died down a bit we could get closer and sit by the fire with a drink in hand :D

Don't know about Health and Safety, I might even get the RSPCA out once they find out I put on a firework display for my Goldfish :roll:

No nanny state with Skye and sparklers :wink:

Image

and a couple from my mate's display on Saturday in Livingston. :shock:

I don't think so :shock: It did look great though 8)

The guy setting the fireworks off did look a bit dazed and had a good tan at the end of it all :roll:
