Don't understand why they are allowed so late even on the special nights. Here dark by 5 at the latest. I have sensitive gearing so dread fireworks night. Not as bad as when I was young, I would be sick with fear from September. Not just people like me, there are pets, young children/babies and people with PTSD. Make a me more mad that my local navey base had there's 25th October a Thursday. Ridiculous. For noise and safety ban public sales. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro
When I was a kid we'd kick drain pipe off a house and team up in pairs and play war with one loading rockets and the other aiming.
I was in Indonesia a few years ago with my mate Richie who suffers from PTSD after being in the Irish tank regiment in the first gulf war. We'd eaten some shrooms and stumbled across a firework show on a beach near Kuta. He fully flipped and started hiding behind trees and bins, screaming at me to get down. He was lost to it. He demanded that we went back to our room and was freaking out that somebody had stolen our guns. He was opening up surfboard bags looking for rifles and ammo. Proper messy. Took me ****ing hours to convince him that we weren't in a war zone.
Hi P-J I'm your friendly site mod. What football team do you support as we have to categorise all newcomers to the Prem Board?
He's good these days. But he needs to manage it. I've been there with him at 3am trying to talk him down from tying a noose around his neck. It proper ****ed him up, but surfing saved him really. He's in California at this moment, working with a charity that supports war vets through surfing. Such a lovely bloke with a heart of gold. It was survivor guilt that got him the most. He saw his best mates blown up by an IED as he sat in a tank.
