Fireworks!

We had a leaflet through the door today, advertising Chinese fireworks for sale. In amongst the usual roman candles and rockets there are some more interesting items - one can only wonder what delights the 'Super Stallion' or the 'Goddess of Companionship' offer for £9.00 a pop. The best things are the selection boxes, and I promise these are genuine descriptions that presumably have been somewhat mangled in the translation:

SOS Fireworks Safety Box

Item description : Specialized occasions safety = sos for brothers pyrotechnics contented fun entertainments are guarantee by these garden fireworks. The icons help our little people to learn new experiences

Brothers Companion

Item description : This box is our renaissance in art, science, chemistry and magic. Provide marvellous fun and entertainment to expose emotions by immense passion overwhelming you.

It's almost worth spending £40 to be overwhelmed by immense passion ... :-)

Those were hilarious! It's probably for the best you didn't buy them - how could anything live up to that kind of promise?
