Default Fork in fireworks...

...have started already. My dog (35 kilo labrador) is shaking and trying to get on my lap.

Anyone else think they should be illegal to the general public except for during the one week of bonfire night?

Poor Dog. I don't see the need to set them off apart from the week of bonfire night as suggested. It's pointless.

It is a shame for dogs (mine don't like them either) but I don't think it is fair to tell people when they can use them. You could say the same about loud exhausts.

Dont get me wrong i had fireworks when i was a kid on the streets but now i think they should be banned.
They is no place for them now, too dangerous and now mainly used by chavs.
They cause too much stress to animals, inc my cats.

It's Diwali, the Indian festival of lights. Been going off all evening here, but our three cats are just sleeping through it
