We moved into the country a few years ago and are now able to do this without bothering neighbours too much. I am so excited to be doing this. I feel like that little boy again. I'll be putting more onto the bonfire throughout the day and getting things ready. Wishing everyone a safe and fantastic bonfire night tonight. November 5th 2024.

    In a dull 5 minutes during working from home (in Essex) I started reminicsing how this time of year, the three weeks before Nov 5th, were such a magical time for me as a kid in the 70s. I was obsessed with fireworks! I was noodling around RUclips and Google looking at old Standard artwork etc. Then I came across this. You nailed it. Firework Fever! I never had a term for it but that's perfect. We never had much money, mum couldn't afford big packs of fireworks. I had to go to the local shop with a home made guy and beg for pennies for the guy, which I then ploughed into my firework budget. Upon finally purchasing I would examine them in the box for a long time, heady with that firework smell, before eventually taking then out of the box to hold, examine and draw. Yes, I used to draw them to keep a permanent record of the Chysanthemum Fountains and the Traffic Lights etc. Intricate plans begun to be drawn up of the exact order of firing, strictly one at a time, which changed repeatedly as the great day approached. Then after taking them all to a friends to combine with theirs for greater effect on that most wonderous of Autumn nights, and after spuds cooked to golden black in the bonfire embers and sausages and onions in rolls with dollops of tomato sauce, and after the final squib had sparkled its last, home to bed to watch others' displays out of the bedworom window. Up at the absolute crack of dawn to ride my bike around the neighbourhood to pick up all the dead fireworks I could find, to examine and pour over the other brands and to keep in the garden, rotting, until forced to finally throw them out... Then the long wait for October to come around again... As an adult I have done some extensive firework parties with massive cakes and so many fireworks brought by others we had to let them off 3 or 4 at a time just to get through them all. But nothing compares to those days in the 70s, with a gloved hand holding a sparkler (colour changing sparkler too, if you were posh!), mug of soup in the other hand, watching those magical little explosives whose output bound my heart forever.

      I can't really add much to what you have written, because you are obviously a kindred spirit and know all that I know and love. I'm just so happy to know that you and others are out there. Our generation is truly the end of the line nostalgia wise, because fireworks have changed so much, as have those simpler times from our 70s/80s childhoods. Thank you so much for taking the time to write down your wonderful thoughts and words. I have another firework related film in the works, hope to finish and upload it in November.

    Love this, only just found it. You are right there is something magical about the seasonality of Autumn that still brings out the kid in me too! I fire large displays every year. However as much as I love everything about fireworks today, they don't come close to the sheer wonder and excitement of those British made blue touch fireworks I grow up loving as a kid in the 1970's and 80's. As you mentioned it was the names, the eye catching colourful labels, the smell of the gunpowder..great memories. Thanks you for sharing.
