I think you'll find the phrase is, "it's like downtown Beirut out there!" :lol
It's not just kids around here. At first, I used to think people were getting halloween mixed up with Guy Fawkes night. But now I just think it's as soon as fireworks become readily available in all the shops. Actually, if a few trick-or-treaters get shot to bits by rockets, I'm all for it [/grumpy old git] :lol
It doesn't really bother me much. It's just that if these folks can afford to literally burn their money like that, can't they spare me a few quid? :'(
