im looking forward to setting off those big rockets! ive never bought any as big as that before. the biggest ive bought before were probably a third of the size of the black gemini ones! you cant beat the woosh sound of a rocket going up then exploding in a burst of colour!
the black gemini's are supposed to be awesome, cant wait!!! (did i mention that before?!)0 -
cool thanks for the heads up
all the fireworks there are 'old' stock supposedly, most of the stuff there should go off with a nice old school bang 
oh i will dont worry!0 -
Great picture! I had some of those black gemini rockets last year and they are the best and loudest rockets I've ever tried. I need to know where to get them again this year, anyone?
Anyway, I popped into my local Lidl's today and stocked up with the 25 Carat cakes. Thanks for that

thanks warehouse
the guy in the shop said they were one of the best rocket packs he had ever heard and seen. i just put that to sales patter, but if other people like yourself say they are great too, that can only mean good things!
i found this whilst trying to find a review of them, seem expensive though
oh also these look to be a newer/different design to the ones i have.
