Is it not enough that our animals get scared to death on burn a Catholic night?

Why would you need explosive devises to see in Hogmanay?

The sale of fireworks to Joe public should be banned.

I thought it was illegal to let off fireworks now in a public place unless at an organised public display - or is that just legislation for England & Wales?

Explosive devices, sure, but nothing wrong wi a good old sky rocket ta see in the new year, indeed decade in this case.

 

As for the poor little animals, it may make up in some small way for those terrorised, even mauled or killed by so called "pets" every year....

Yes you did here.

 

From this news story

Lantern alert

 

SHETLAND coastguard yesterday (Thursday) reminded people setting off Chinese lanterns into the sky to let them know, in case they are mistaken for flares.

 

The call came after the Lerwick lifeboat was called out after a red flare was seen over Mousa on Wednesday evening around 6.30pm. Nothing was found at the scene, but on their way back at 10pm the lifeboat crew saw several Chinese lanterns over Brei Wick, off Sound.
