Fireworks in the early hours of today
Who heard them?. What clown thought of setting fireworks at 1am when everybody's asleep? .

They were around Rhyddings High School area (the fireworks).

Re: Fireworks in the early hours of today
I heard a series of explosion type noises. I looked out of the window as they were happening, in the direction of Rhyddings park, and saw no lights in the sky. I am not certain the noise was fireworks.

Have you lot not learnt yet what fireworks going off at obscure times, and for no apparent reason means. It happens regulary in the Higher Antley Area.
Its the local drug dealers signaling a new shipment has arrived.

They were in Rhyddings Park. We have just been for a walk and cleared up the mess they left.
