Stay away from the firecracker shops guys, a firecracker market got gutted tonight in Faridabad, some 200 shops got burned. My sister and niece escaped it by a whisker. They left the market just 5 minutes before the fire started. They captured the event on the phone. Say no to bloody firecrackers and its market.
 
If the cat in your DP is you then that cat (you) should be put to sleep early on diwali and with ear plugs on. :D
I am safe in my underground cat bunker. It's the goats that have to fear. And street dogs. :(

I love the lights, the rockets and the stars in the sky. Ah and the smell. Also the rows of diyas. :tup:
