ok so this post is a little late but i feel it's important that some body says this. We need more socially acceptable events that involve fire! i'm not an arsonist (yet) but i have to say that fire makes things better! much like random explosions making a film better. it's just cool.
There is something wonderful about an open fire. Bonfires in particular given that they tend to be mahussive!
And who doesn't love pretty showers of light in the sky (apart from dogs, cats, babies and other people who lack a certain sense of fun)? i still get a certain thrill hearing the loud crackling bang of the very first firework of the night and i'm sure many of you are the same. Even my wonderful Grandfather who is possibly the most serious person i know has admitted a certain keenness for the things.
And sparklers! they're like tiny sparks of joy for very grown up people like myself and don't try and tell me that you don't write your name with them because you'd be lying and everyone will know.
But why is fire confined to very few seasonal events? why can't be have a fire for everything!? easter for one would be far more interesting in my opinion if we were allowed to set fire to things, I, personally would pay to see a man handing out eggs in a flaming chicken suit. wouldn't you? or perhaps a wicker man style bunny rabbit? just a suggestion
