    We got some fireworks from the boulevard vendors to let off at new year, all good except the rockets in the photo, 10 in a pack and not one of them would fly.
    The the fuse burns up to the main body then nothing, i should have been wary of these as they were only 150p for 10 and i could see a guy at the back of the stall sellotaping the bodies onto the stick, still you live and learn.
    We had some other rockets 6 in a pack made in Germany by the writing on the body and they were excellent.

    Oh dear Rocket man
    Theres a lot of short fuse's around at the moment, let's put it down to Covid 19
    it gets the blame for everything these days.
