No you didn't. They were cancelled because of the Total Fire Ban.

Err, you can't light a fire in your own back yard.
Any fire.
Anywhere.
'Cause GovCo says so.

Think about that for a while, and try to hold onto that thought into
the new year.

Interestingly tough, Vic has a partial fire ban in place.
So in some places, one person can't play with fire, and the neighbour
can:-)
Amazing stuff.


But this all gets down to stupids.
You see stupids light fires in tinder-dry high wind conditions.
Because of this, everyone else isn't allowed to light fires anywhere.
Because we're ALL stupids, you see.
Just like we're ALL criminals.
And ALL speeders.
And ALL illicit dwug takers.
And ALL social security cheats.
And ALLbirdie-flu carriers.
And ALL tewwowists.

And so on.

Actually the fireworks are on in Melbourne and Geelong because they are over
water.

I withdraw my comment from earlier today.

Not so. The East hasn't had a total fire ban this summer (I think) and for
good reason. There just isn't the fuel that there is in other parts of the
state. The conditions haven't awrranted it either.

If we are so stupid, we won't obey the law anyway because we won't be able
to comprehend the consequences. I remember a bunch of people caught outside
of Melbourne several years ago of a particular ethnic extraction they were
having a barbecue in a public park on a day of total fire ban. The MFB
arrived and they ended up having to call for police reinforcement because
the fools were throwing everything they could lay their hands on AT THE FIRE
FIGHTERS. No one was going to ruin their day!!!

Now that is stupid.

Bloke up this way lit up a pile of logs a few years back on a non-ban
day - but defo 'high' fire danger.
No police, but it was piss-funny watching the rural brigade pursue the
stupid around his paddock at high speed in the truck with pumps on
full blast dispensing the water left over from putting out the fire to
good use.
Or the other local who lit one up and didn't warn the brigade first.
Some well-meaning citizen spotted the fire from his pilots vantage
point. Well, it was a Ball Tearer of a fire.
Brigade turned up sirens lights the works - embarrassing the hell out
of their fellow member, sat down, watched the fire and drank all his
booze:-)

Heh - the usual disgusting stuff - but there's a difference!!
This time, there 'may' be violence from that element of the population
that goes about rapin people with bombs in their teeth.
FAARK!!
Anyway, it's welcoming to see the non-bylined imbeciles simply didn't
just copy last years putrid release - shit, they managed to get the
proprietors propaganda message/instructions right in there.
Good on 'em.

2005 ?

You drunken cunt JDL.

Anyway I guess your disappointment at missing out on the
fireworks was tempered by being buggered.

My father used to have himself a bonfire every year with the tree prunings
in the back paddock, and every year the airport would send the fire brigade,
who'd put it out.
So one year, he rang everyone he could think of, to warn them he was havign
a fire.

so he lit up his fire, several brigades turned up, but this time he could
stop them putting the fire out because he'd got permission to have it. So
the brigades chased each other around their trucks, having water fights with
their hoses....

True story!
