    Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear. Poor old Jim's gonna have a heart attack or need to call the men in their little white coats when he sees this one . I'll come and visit you Jim

    Voice of sensibility and reason here...

    Seriously though, and someone has to say it... This sort of stuff puts an awful lot of stress on Jim, both prior to and throughout the LEM. Please be considerate and contact him by PM to ask his permission before even considering bringing this sort of stuff. It's not that anyone is wanting to spoil the fun, but at the end of the day once the LEM's over we all leave to our respective corners of the country. Jim has his community to consider and he can't run away.

    Thanks guys

    Jem

    I realise this Andy and I am glad you have taken hold of yourself

    On a serious note, I must reiterate the fact that this is primarily a laser meet and not a 'bring the most explosive item you can find' meet
    Fireworks are fun but not always fun for neighbours.
    Noise has also been mentioned as a slight issue in the past, but this is a village hall that holds discos, party's etc so what can they expect!! but the people complaining, I don't know exactly who it was but I can guess!, where moaning of noise around 22:00hrs. I believe the 'quiet' night period is normally 23:00hrs to 07:00hrs so I won't worry to much about that one.
    As long as we are quiet up until 23:00hrs then we are within the law.

    I don't want to put a dampener on proceedings in any way but as Jem has said, I have to pick up the pieces and live with whatever happens here when everyone else has gorn home

    Extra big fireworks? Like one of these, maybe? (Yeah, that's my backyard...)

    Instructions? Do not hold in hand. (Duh...) Light fuse and get away!
