About Me

42 yr old chap in plymouth, only just rediscovered a love of fireworks and an even deeper love for the nostalgia side of them (oddly, it helped retrieve lost childhood memories), addicted to obscure 80's synth music as well as the mainstream from then plus rather enthused with the current retro indie sound.
nature/woodlands/gardens/insects are on the interest list, even steam trains (ideal for relaxation).
not great at socialising as don't conform with 40 something peer groups (ie corrie, booze, and 'oh well my kids are better than yours because).
hoping to discover the secret of time travel (and will bring back some old fireworks for us all to share and enjoy), although not worked out how quite yet.

Ironically, I've got a load of fireworks from over the last 2 years, but after the fuss I had with my neighbour (only setting off the tiny fountains from the small box, ie. before getting really started)I feel a bit inhibited.
Need to find someone in Devon with a garden who's in the mind to be a pal with a complete stranger.

In Topic: Selection Boxes

Seems most of the local shop branded selection boxes have been disappointing (men shun, standard) from the various comments posted, so having such a good reputation, can anyone give a comment about the larger Kimbolton selections from personal experience? eg emerald or solitaire?
