Dear Fido, Chester and Brecon. On Saturday, November 10, at about 10.30pm, I went out for my tiddle.

When mum let me in and I could not stop shaking, even on Sunday and Monday, dad took me to the vet and was told I was in shock because of a firework that was let off on the Saturday - five days after November 5. They were going on for a week before this and two weeks after - three weeks in all. The vet's fees were £15.

Dad also sent a letter to David Lepper MP, asking for a law for fireworks to be allowed on maybe two nights only, November 5 and 6, or organised displays only.
