Luckily being in the middle of nowhere and it being sheep farming land as well, we don't tend to get firework displays around here. We hear the occasional whizz bang and that's about it.

I used to live near Welsh sheep farming territory

They had other activities around this time of year up in the hills

there were always strange arrangements of sheep bones around the rocks if you got well away from the tourists places


and not all of them were teenagers messing around!!!
(although some were!!)

Thanks but no thanks. I think I'll pass.

Maybe depends on the area - this was Bangor - so quite close to Druid country

and when I was training to teach some of the Welsh people mentioned "activities in the hills that maybe we shouldn;t mention"

no idea what they were going on about - but I heard it mentioned several times over the years
They never invited you to take part in these activities?

Not Welsh so not "qualified"

but those sheep bones suggested that there were more than normal "teenage hormones getting loose" type activities

for those that are worried - the sheep bones were almost certinly due to sheep dying during harsh winters on the hills and not as a result of "activities"

but the whole thing might just have been an "in joke"
