small update,

i got the urge to splurge again at the weekend so i had to go out and get my fix. Of buying more fireworks of course!

first off i went to lidls and got 2 ipanemas and 2 25 carat golds. theyre smaller than i thought, but the vids do look impressive so i cant wait to set them off

next i went to tescos and bought the shot tubes they do, £25 bogof. i had them last year and they were really good (i put a review up about them last year) i think they were called mercury rising last year, this year theyre called crystal shot. look to be exactly the same though

lastly i went to a different garden centre and bought some stuff made by cosmic. i got the venus selection box @ £19.99 as it came with a free 6 pack of golden eagle rockets which were priced at £24.99 they had some other good fireworks, but were quite expensive.

time for some pics!

this is what i got from lidl:



stuff from tesco:



stuff from garden centre:



to go with the rest of my stuff here!:



cant wait to let this 'little' lot off!

pyro i do this with my dog every year but would feel guilty to leave her in there for a long period of time and i cant remember calling my dog a 'it' unless that was ment for someone else

That collection you have looks great Windmill!

25 carat is an amazing cake, it really is VERY loud compared to other supermarket stuff. I have never seen a piece like that available from a supermarket before!

Im going back to Lidl today to buy rather 2 25 carat cakes or 1 of each of the cakes!

heres hoping! i love fireworks

well the big selection with the rockets and cakes was a special deal from a firework shop, should have been £470 i think and i bought it for £240
the lidls cakes were £24
tescos shot tubes were £25
and the garden centre package was £19.99

so £308.99 in total! :O
