We bought a cheap box of fireworks on saturday morning and decided to throw a fireworks party. It was last minute and friends from Uni had exams and write-ups to do so we didn't expect a very big turn out. In the end there were only 5 of us, which wasn't too bad because our garden is only small.

Some of the fireworks recommended a minimum distance of 25m. Our garden is only 8m long so we were a bit close. Things started to get a bit worrying when we almost had glowing embers raining down on us from one of the larger fireworks.
