Your local Garda station usually have a few for sale, just ask the Sergeant.

Presume you're not planning to use them in the 'south'...

Across the border is across the border. The UK is UK. What do you want an international border buffer zone?

I'm really bloody sick and tired of listening to bangers and fireworks going off. It's a selfish fricking thing to do. I met a woman at the vets last week whose dog is so traumatised by them that every Halloween he has to be admitted to the vets and sedated overnight on Halloween:mad:

She should duct-tape cotton wool over his ears. Be grand. Mine sulks under my desk when they're going off in the area. I reckon he should man the fcuk up. He kinda knows it himself too. Can't look me in the eye.

It's not selfish you killjoys.

The moaning nanny state lovers are the selfish ones imo.

I dunno who's more embarrassing, the dog or the owner. Dry up to f*ck. My pets never have had too big an issue with them ever. It's only for one bloody night like. I know for a fact that dogs will bother neighbours more at night throughout the year than the neighbours will with one night of bangers. Might as well stop putting up Christmas lights too just in case the poor pooch gets a seizure.

While I have no feelings on the subject of fireworks plenty of dogs are terrified of the noise (and of thunder for that matter) and it isn't only one night.

People should use unimaginative buzz-phrases correctly.

If people hate bangers and don't like the effect it has on their pets, that is their valid opinion.

They don't bother me, but that's because they don't go off in very close proximity to me either. I don't see the appeal though.

I think you got a hold of the kind of bangers people use in nightclubs to 'dance' eh?

How did I use it incorrectly?

Killjoys who want everything banned/regulated = love the nanny state

,but sure we shouldn't use common phrases with meaning, we should be imaginative and come up with our own words. Good times.

And people who don't like some stuff (not everything) are not necessarily nanny state lovers.

I'd bet more kids have access to the more dangerous fireworks like bangers in Ireland than in the UK.

It's not like they're not everywhere already.
