Looks Like Sainsburys Are Not Selling Fireworks This Year
No link as they seem to want to keep it low profile but it looks like Sainsburys have taken the decision not to sell fireworks this year. If you or someone you know are affected by the constant barrage of noise, mess and smoke that happens at this season (and when did Firework Night become Firework season?) then you might like to comment on their facebook page or website? Hopefully another step in the right direction.

Much as I would love to say something to spath, I realise it would be a complete waste of time so I won't waste my time and energy. This is just to let anyone know who might be interested in contacting Sainsburys. I wrote them an email to congratulate them for taking this stance, but unfortunatel

Hi Barsel. I think councils do advertise events, but not sure if it is required. However, whilst fireworks can be bought by adults who can put on there own displays or use them at random, or even give them to kids, we can't eradicate the problem. If only licenced people can buy them, then they can be held responsible for any misuse.

I don't think its about size or breed of dog. Mine are Wei x GSP. Grandad was a show and trials winner; their parents (they are litter brothers were family pets belonging to the same lady who couldsn't count) were both lovely calm stable family pets. They are not nervous or uncertain about anything else, just thunderstorms and fireworks. Sadly they have very acute hearing and will hear fireworks that I cannot and I have got excellent hearing. One of them will sleep next to the TV when there is a war film on so its not that they are nervy. He is also weatherwise and usually knows when a storm is coming or will pass close by, I suspect its something to do with the drop in air pressure. All of my dogs have been raised by me from puppies, no rescues and I have had other dogs who totally ignored fireworks as well as another who hated them.
It gets ridiculous around here, had loads already and a lot of the kids don't even both waiting for it to get dark before letting off rockets.
Was kept awake the other night by them letting off really loud ones (loud enough to really make you jump every time) past 11pm, not great when I have to be up for work in the very early hours.
There have been a lot of issues with antisocial behaviour with fireworks round here, and I imagine elsewhere. just a few of the articles here.
