    just pick these up, anyone tried them? got the wheels for £3 as he priced them up wrong and the mines and candles for £18. good deal or not? i noticed they were the rrp but i was struggling to find anywhere with mines.

    My local garden center always has a massive selection of kimbolton but the chap in there said they had an accident with mines last year so they wont be stocking them again :eek: gutted, anyway saw a little sign on the way home for fireworks and followed it to a guys little shop he runs from his farm, little on the expensive but very close and has massive stock.

    Just fired the majority of the Pyro Time selection box! Wasnt planning on using them in my display anyway, lit most of the fountains and two of the smaller roman candles!

    For £5 they were all really good!! One of the roman candles didnt half bang as it left the tube.:D

    Oh well thats my little bonfire night taster out the way now just over a week til the actual night. Can't wait!

    Only thing is though this thread is making me want to go out and buy more and more! haha!

    That box looks amazing Si, how much was it?

    Also Gazmo thats a great little collection youve picked up today. Dont know if anyone aggrees but these little bargains that are found nearer to bonfire night are more fun than buying the main stash? :lol:
