A gentle reminder for those celebrating Guy Fawkes' Night on November 5th, not much more than 2 weeks away, to PLEASE be careful with fireworks. For the UK, I have copied the Fireworks Code from the DTI website.
• Only buy fireworks marked
BS 7114.
• Don’t drink alcohol if
setting off fireworks.
• Keep fireworks in a closed
box.
• Follow the instructions on
each firework.
• Light at arm's length, using
a taper.
• Stand well back.
• Never go near a firework that
has been lit. Even if it hasn’t gone off, it could still
explode.
• Never put fireworks in your
pocket or throw them.
• Always supervise children
around fireworks.
• Light sparklers one at a time
and wear gloves.
• Never give sparklers to a
child under five.
• Keep pets indoors.

Thanks for the excellent advice Guido, my lab Jake absolutely hates fireworks, though it wouldn`t be so bad if it were just the one night a year. Where I live it goes on for about six weeks! :o(
