red bangersOH Yes..I'd forgotton about them.....what a lovely noise, plus you could break them open and empty out all the black powder, then twist together all the unused fuses to make fantastic 'Genies'. I'm going to bring back a truckload of them when i go to frnace next time.....happy childhood memories a go-go.
Might even risk smuggling a flick-knife...that other reputation improving piece of teenage 'street-cred'

ha, get us some will yaWe did that with a entire box of fireworks and put all the contents into one photo pot. Took ages but it was a pretty decent bang. Looking back I'm thankful I still have all my extremities undamaged from all those pyro days at the back of my mate's garden. He did burn his eyebrows off once though.
I was originally going to put flick knife as well, but I wasn't "cool" enough to ever quite get hold of one. I got a flick-comb instead :)
While I'm here, might as well add "video nasties" to the list. Cannibal Holocaust and Animal Farm on scuzzy VHS?
