Bonfire Night

Nick 0208 Ldn · 3rd November 2008, 02:43

Well its turned ito more of a week with it fallin on a Wednesday as ti does.

Anyobody beat the weather and go to a display at the weekend?

Do you have a regular one that you go to? Any family traditions?

Or do you get some in and launch a few in the garden maybe?

One of those times of year where a spirit of ocmmunity can rise to the fore, which isn't necessarily as common as it used to be in Britain.

I never do anything for it any more. Will be in the pub watching the game this year.

I use to go to the local display when I was a kid. It got cancelled tho cos someone got hit in the face.

I have 2 dogs (Well if you want to be technical 1 dog and 1 bitch - wanker). The dog just barks constantly and the bitch runs behind the TV, which is quite funny until you realise it's cruel and there's nothing you can do to stop it

If your dog barks to much there's these collars you can get that gives them a tiny shock when ever they do it (i know it sounds harsh, but its alright) and you put these on in the environment where you want them to be quieter, give it a week or two and they learn.

Yes there is that side to it

, we always try to get the cat in before it gets dark at this time of year. Mind you, that still leaves the morons setting them off in the middle of the day.

I think from the PoV of pets and wildlife, the spread of cheaper and seemingly only noise based fireworks is one of the main problems.

Weather permitting, i'll be going to the same way i've been to for...well years now. The local scout group stage it at a field they use, proper bonfire and a Guy on top, mulled wine and a BBQ [not to mention the fireworks].

We used one with one of ours, she's a the sister of my brothers collie.

She was crap as a farm dog and was gonna get shot, so me mum took her in, was only meant to be temp, but never was gonna be..

She was really nervous as she had been mistreated, she had wire wrapped around a rotting tooth we didn't find for a few months etc and was always barking at night, obviously to keep her we had to quite her down cos of neighbours etc.

She's now the fastest flyball/agility dog on the island, and holds her own in england.

She's won a few single flyball events. To fast for me mum to keep up with the agility though!

To be fair, many will probably be at the weekend and not on the night itself.

Oh, and don't be such a wimp!
