Same here Mo, I had to keep the cats in, fireworks going off all over the place from teatime until 10pm

We also had a lot of fireworks going off last night, Milo barks at the loud bangs and runs around and around. They should not sell fireworks to the public, just have organised displays on the 5th November only.
