I agree! I don't mind them on bonfire night and new year's eve but I can't understand why people would need to faff about with them in their gardens any other time of year.
My dad bought an enormous box a few years ago on the cheap from a friend and set them off on a random night, they were incredibly loud and he eked them out over the course of the week. This was pre-noise phobic Breeze but I refused to participate in his "displays" - they didn't even seem safe let alone how inconsiderate it was. He's also set off crow bangers as fireworks, stupid man
I'd like all but the special "garden" fireworks which are quiet banned for public sale, and restrictions on when public displays are permitted. I do like fireworks but could happily live without them!
