Thanks for the info, will definitely be picking up a few packs in the next few days.

Will come in really useful for creating a finale/ lighting lots of small selection box bits at once!

Decent price too at just £1 for 3!

Plus great stuff with the leaftet too, any luck with ASDA?

Thanks for that Will go and look if there are any leaflets in tomorrow again.
Really want to know price of the roman candles but just know I will be dissapointed with the price.

I don't use portfires for firework lighting;too smoky and obnoxious! I use a rothenburger superfire II from galactic fireworks and it's great value!

£59.99 plus £12.99 for the gas you'll never look back;instant pushbutton ignition of the flame and flame extinguish when released means instantly lit fuses and NO smoke whatsoever http://www.galacticfireworks.co.uk/content/pages/shop/online-shop/miscellaneous/rothenberger.htm#eq1

If you don't like this option get yourself to home and bargain for a micro kitchen torch just as effective and a whole lot cheaper £4.99 http://www.homebargains.co.uk/products/7445-kitchen-contemporary-cooking-micro-torch.aspx nb you'll just need to get a butane gas cannister to fuel it.
