Remember, remember the 5th of November


Saturday 1 November - Ian and I braved the wind and rain to see at least part of the fireworks display this weekend. Throughout november we will hear and see fireworks almost every night as people celebrate "fireworks night" or Guy Fawkes day. The Brits often celebrate by having private fireworks displays and parties with bonfires in their backyards. The towns and villages also have larger displays. The display this year was mostly red and green fireworks and not particularly exciting (although spirits were quite damp considering the rain). However, we are looking forward to continuing the celebration this weekend when we go to the Bridgewater carnival.
