Aaaah sorry Justin. I have nothing but fond memories of cracker nights in Sydney; penny bungers, tuppenny bungers, sky rockets & roman candles. Sneaking out to buy just a few more for the arsenal despite being told no more. Seeing how high the ice cream container would go with a tuppenny underneath. Numb fingers and a ringing in the ears after waiting too long to through the penny bunger into the canal (i lived in a waterfront home in the 60's - Sylvania Waters) ... those penny fuses were really hard to predict But the dull thud and flash of the underwater explosion when you timed it just right was worth it !

Cheers, Marcus
