Who actually buys fireworks?

Buying fireworks itself is somewhat of a hobby for me- I'll go out on a trip specifically to buy fireworks. Actually letting them off is almost incidental. Well, no- I do like to let them off too. It is like a lot of people who enjoy cookery. They get the most fun out of planning their meal- buying herbs and meat, preparing it and cooking it. The actually eating is somewhat incidental.

I buy quite a few selection boxes every year simply because i like to try things with smaller items occasionally, and i like lighting them.
I find as much joy lighting them with my creme brulee torch as i do buying them. That said i would not drive 2hrs for one roman candle, the big journeys are only happening if im buying a van full!!

Besides the fact that I now make them, the insane price that you generally have to pay here puts me off. It sounds like some of you have prices sorted out though!

Yeah, several. Depending on which way your are coming, of course- but there are several on route. HFM at Cannock and Firework Factory at Lancaster are both 5 minutes off the M6. There is also SP at Stafford, that is close to the M6 too. Epic is just off the East-West motorway (M62 I think).

I am a great lover of large rockets and noisy fireworks and try to get a good selection each year
Most of us are! Well, I'm not a fan of large rockets - I mean, they are cool and all, but value for money wise, not so good.
Noisy fireworks are still around, but getting harder to find- still on sale though as 1.3G or as "pyromeshed" 1.4G. The increasing use of blackpowder does mean that many fireworks won't be as loud, but to me that isn't a bad thing necessarily.
