It is Hallow`een which is celebrated here in the north of Ireland, Guy Fawkes day was unheard of, regarding fireworks anyone who keeps animals would like to see them banned forever.
The sight of a terrified dog, cat, or fowl cowering and whimpering in fear should dispel all of that rubbish about entertaining the kids, during the past `troubles` fireworks were banned here, so we had peaceful nights, with none of the local vandals letting of their fireworks from early September through to November, and this throughout the wee small hours. For the sake of the animals and our overworked firemen ban them.
