for future refernce ...
1) LeMaitre make some very big marroons for stage use.
2) it says they need to be in some form of container when they go off.
3) do NOT use those funny square dustbin/ashtray things (with the two
flaps of steel as a lid) as the container (see [2] above)
4) the lids on [3] are, apparently, not attached very well.
5) Members of the public attending an event do not take kindly to being
whisked off to hospital to have lumps of metal removed from their legs.
I tell you this to help you avoid long chats with staff from the local
HSE and insurance comapanies, neither of whom seem to have much 'sense of
