I absolutely love Fireworks, although I hate the way they seem to be let off for about 6 weeks around November 5th for 2 main reasons...

• It gets to be bloody annoying and scares the crap out of the cat! Although she's not so bad now she's getting on a bit and tends to just come inside if she can be bothered
• SWMBO is terrified of them. Silly really as she trained as a chemist and understands them, even enjoys watching the pretty colours... It's just the explosions

There is a theory behind Number 2 though... When her mum was late on in pregnancy with her they were at Cowes Week and got separated from her sister who is only 3 years older. Theory is the loud bangs bring back the stresses felt through the womb Plus, as a Hearing Aid Audiologist, they can cause severe hearing problems

That said, she has had to "man up" a little in the last few years so we could take our nephew to the ones here on the base, which are normally pretty good She just wears some earplugs

LMFAO at that but a clever way of getting around the problem
