    Never saw that happen. If you want "safe" fireworks, go over the border and buy from a registered dealer. The guy who is the registered (with the PSNI) dealer for Fermanagh is also a well known battery sales outlet. He will also build you a brand new 6v or 12v rubber cased battery to suit your classic tractor. Mack in Cavan.

    Ladies of the night too... but I've never been approached :confused:, not sure if thats that a good or bad thing ?

    Meah... doubt the kids of the countryside are getting their fireworks at the ploughing... they are there but I've not seen many buying them.

    Most of these kids would just buy them of a local man, whowould go up the north and buy of a dealer and fill there car or jeep. And yes there is loads of fireworks at the ploughing, the amount of times i have being asked by 10 year old gets to be annoying. :eek:..do ya want a few fireworks lad?????

    Last time I went was 2009 I think. A young lad in a paddy hat asked me if I wanted some bangers and he was gone in a flash when I walked by. Haven't been approached by any ladies of the night, I must not by their type.
