Every year as we approach Guy Fawkes Night (Bonfire Night as it's also known) the tv is full of warning ads showing the dangers of fireworks. Schools have fire safety officers come around to give talks about the dangers of fireworks. We have it drilled into us from a young age, that fireworks are dangerous and should only be lit by adults.
Still every year some kids get hurt by fireworks.
Me, I am terrified of fucking fireworks and always have been. Not helped by the fact that Mum was seriously hurt by one when she was a kid. A rocket was lit and the milk bottle it was propped in fell over and it shot right into her stomach. I inherited her nerves around them :p
