    Society doesn't allow or condone children playing with this objects, but it's just too easy for them to gain access. Age-checks are rarely done in smaller newsagents, and parents often allow their children a few bangers to let off. It's when kids take these out of an adult's supervision area when it gets dangerous.

    Maybe I'm being a kill joy again but what kind of society allows explosives to be sold over the counter in newsagents. I know the Americans can buy guns this way :-) but I'd have thought we'd have more sense. Michael :-)

      Halloween is when a rabbit comes down your chimney and hides eggs under a tree. Said rabbit then drives the snakes out of Ireland, eats lots of turkey and falls asleep watching American football. Or maybe I'm confused.:) Craig Dodge This message printed on 100% recycled electrons.

        Age 0-12: It's all about the candy Age 13-20: It's all about the eye candy Age 21-?: It's all about turning off all the lights in the house and being completely silent. Leave me alone. Nah, just kidding, I'm not really that cynical and bitter. I don't know the deep, spiritual meanings behind Halloween, I just know that when you're little, it's a time to dress up and get a boatload of candy. When you're older, it's time to put on a funny costume that makes people laugh (I just wear my regular clothes - seems to work just fine).

          I get your point, but at least Christmas and Easter have some Christian connection (even if the dates for Christ's birth are way off). Halloween doesn't have that excuse. Andy Metcalfe - Sonardyne International Ltd

            Ah yes, 10 year old kids running around playing with fireworks. Round my way at the moment it sounds more like I'm in Afghanistan. I have to wonder what kind of of society lets children play around with explosives for fun. Michael :-)

            it's a sad, but true fact that too many kids are left unsupervised to wander around their estates with their "mates". Talk about a receipe for juvenile crime...:( Andy Metcalfe - Sonardyne International Ltd

Their ad's come on before every single movie I have ever seen. Buxom blondes, handsome hunks, skiing, rich life style, healthy life style, mansions etc. etc. The image of Peter Stuyvesant. #2 - Britney Spears = No talent, but a hell of a good looking young lady!

                Are you bragging? :confused: :-O
                She is as fake as a crash proof Windows. Are you insinuating that Britney Spears is a myth? :-D Foot-and-Mouth disease is believed to be the first virus unable to spread through Microsoft Outlook
