I think everyone wants you to try those rockets and candles and report back. Why not try a tester?

My local garden centre has switched to Dancing Red Devil this year and it is all half R.R.P.,so i urge you all to shop around,there are some real bargains out there!




A bargain is only a bargain if the price paid is actually less than the value of the item bought...

I don't wish to preach, but please be careful with half rrp offers - some rrp's are way over the true worth of the product. Before assuming you're facing a bargain please check if the product is actually being sold at the quoted full price elsewhere (often it's not).

Look for a reputable brand.

If you happen to be setting of some big flashpowder based items from the good old days this year what's the worst that the authorities
can do ? Posted Image Fine ? Public flogging ? What ??



Pre MSER there would not have been a problem, assuming the fireworks were legit'. Nowadays things are different - without storage registration you can only store over 5kg nec for 21 days, under 5kg can be stored indefinitely.

Therefore, if you have say only one cake it would be pretty much impossible to prosecute for illegal storage, and as long it was fired within the legal time frame and on private land you should be all clear. If you had a few cakes (ie over 5kg net) then questions could well be asked about how long you've had the stuff (ie 21 days or more).

Mind you, once it's fired where's the evidence of the chemical make up.....very difficult to prove muchPosted Image
