I'm sitting here listening to fireworks going off all around me. The smoke trails can be seen shooting up into the sky exploding into reds, greens, blues, golds and every other imaginable colour. The fireworks are a way of celebrating Territory Day which is tomorrow. I like fireworks. Didn't buy any this year instead I stood out in the street with the other neighbours who were watching the show.
The fireworks show from my door step.
I was surprised to find that fireworks are quite expensive. Especially for something that you are going to set alight, even if it does provide an impressive show. The cheapest set of fireworks that I found was $20 and contained a few rocket types and a twirly sparkler. At the moment I can still here them going off in the street and they have been going off for the past two hours so it seems that everyone here has plenty of money. It looks like I won't be getting much sleep tonight, but for once, I don't really mind.

I will show my ignorance and ask what Territory day is? The fireworks sound like a good way to start it off
Sounds like fun, Ryan. Brings back memories of fireworks at Tennant Creek about 10 years ago. One of the fireworks took off in the wrong direction, then landed in a bush right among the crowd... the burning bush of god, hahaha...
Have fun!
