Cracker night.
Lived in Brown Hill, near Kalgoorlie.
The whole community donated to the bonfire, great time for a clean up, old tyres, trees etc.
everyone turned up, great fun.
Then the slime dumps at Williamstown.
Political correctness????????????"? Bah Humbug
When I was living in Darwin 5 years ago fireworks were permitted on Territory Day, and I believe they still are.Quote:

Ever tried an old hollow key?????
Fill the cavity with match heads. insert one close fitting nail and belt it against a solid object.
WOW scares the hell out of the unsuspecting. Little old ladies, dogs, little old ladies, dogs, did I mention lite old ladies??
I think you might be the reason cracker night was banned....Quote:
