What time can you set off fireworks? The rules over the Queen's Platinum Jubilee weekend
manchestereveningnews.co.ukThe Queen's Platinum Jubilee will be marked by a bumper four-day Bank Holiday weekend. Brits up and down the country will be celebrating with street parties, garden get-togethers and extended trips to the pub.
The four-day weekend kicks off on Thursday, and there should be some pleasant weather on the way with temperatures up in the high teens in most places.
