just make sure you leave the rockets loose enough to take off, they dont half make a mess whilst still stuck in the tube!!!

Bloody hell they're massive, bet they dont have go with a bang!!!
Not keen on fireworks meself, not loud ones anyway ...
I'll be watching the local council's display from either my house, or might go to the local 'hill' and sit and watch them up there 
Think me and Gaz are going to go to a local theme/kids park and watch there display with a couple of mates

We had a rocket that size explode in my garden on my 21st birthday, my mate put the stick in the ground and not in the tube, so obviously didnt go up in the air. Got it on video too, we were only about 4 or 5m away at the most

Them polaris rockets are good (pm me if you want vids of some of your things )
Just be fucking careful m8 seriously!!!!
It was manic last year and we could have quite easily blown ourselves to shit just for a 10-15min display... hahaha I spent £400 but had a genuine rrp of like £700 worth of stuff 
thats most of the stuff but there was quite afew more rockets and things.
