Tiresome fireworks around Wood Vale / Langton Rise

[swipes]

There's a house somewhere around the Langton Rise / Wood Vale junction from where very expensive fireworks have been going up for over 1 1/2 hours now. Exactly the same last new new year and November. The host is either putting on a show for what must now be some very bored guests or he / she is all alone. Either way it's odd and enough's enough. Just venting. Aahh.

It's like Beirut outside, must be the ones I can hear.

Yes, it was mad loud here too! Upset my baby no end.

Golly, I'd completely forgotten it was bonfire night - I figured East Dulwich was getting shot up big style.

I didn't get a chance to get to one of the displays this year, and I really enjoyed the Wood Vale fireworks. They were among the best home fireworks I've seen and must have cost a fortune!

I bought 250 quids worth one year in 94 or 95 and they lasted for 35 minutes............

Sounds as if your neighbour spent a grand or more.

There were very big gaps between sets of fireworks - someone with me suggested that it was a party and that people were arriving perdiodically with one big firework each (the boxes that go on for a long time) and that as guests arrived and got drinks they were then setting off the latest firework to arrive - hence the lapsed time and the gaps between events. Seemed plausible. The time it went on to suggested this was an adult, not a child thing.
