The dreaded oil drum, i had forgotten about that. As early teens four of were doing the same one bonfire night when said oil drum rolled onto the remains of a very large bonfire. We tried to get it off with sticks ect, When we herd "dong" and dent popped out.... One of us shouted run so we did. Next minute massive explosion which knocked us all flat and we saw the 45gln drum heading skywards at an angle. We were up and running within seconds and a few minutes later increased our pace as we heard sirens......We were scared stiff for a couple of weeks, but despite looking at the local papers we never found out where the drum had landed or if it had damaged anything. We never went near an oil drum again god knows what had been in it as it was empty when we found it.
