Title: Anyone hear fireworks explosion this afternoon?
Post by: roversontheup on January 28, 2021, 08:22:26 pm
I was walking behind Potteric Carr this afternoon and there was a sound like fireworks going off. It lasted for ages. Sounded almost like a firework factory had exploded. Anyone else hear it or know what it was?

I nipped home for a quicky with the missus earlier. Probably that.

It must have been loud, I heard the French have surrendered.

Doubt it was that, apparently the banging lasted for over a minute.

I've heard it was Scawsby Steve trying out the sit on giant rocket he got for Christmas. He was over the moon with it.

He was probably off to his Mars.

It was a mate of mine. He set them off to celebrate his wife’s birthday. Spent hours setting them up to go off in a particular order but they ended up going off in an uncoordinated explosive mess. He said his wife’s not talking to him now.

I said ‘that’s bang out of order!’

What is the story with this, especially around the intake area?

If you hear fireworks at a random time it usually means the drugs are ready for collection.

There's the same urban myth in Bradford as well.

That's a good idea. We have to go on the off chance for our prescriptions at Boots in Bentley.

The fireworks thing was something my wife told me she from Sheffield and it seemed that the estate that she lived on got busy with people walking dogs shortly after a firework went off

If that’s the case it fits in with what and where I heard it. Went on for ages.
