my Six Words:missing Guy Fawkes Night this year?
Last year we were in London on November 5th and got to burn Guy Fawkes in effigy. That was a different experience for us.This year we will not be able to attend. I will have these pictures to help me remember of the bonfire though.
A lot of work went into the building of this bonfire and it took a while to get it going good. But when it did that was about all. Enjoy the pictures, we did (Mrs. Jim and my picture, bottom right).

I'm missing one too, Jim :) There was a firework display at the seafront tonight and it's the first time in many years that I've missed it, but we had a busy day already. :)
ReplyDeleteGuy Fawkes night has pretty much died out in Australia, since fireworks in the hands of ordinary citizens were banned a long time ago. I do remember the bonfires when I was a kid - coinciding with our autumn here, so the eaves made good fires. I liked the sparklers.
ReplyDeleteBonfire are great fun! What a lovely photo of you and Mrs. Jim... such a cute and classy couple of kids you are! :-)
ReplyDeleteWhat great memories Jim! Very cute pic of you and Mrs. Jim!
ReplyDeleteGreat fun your Guy Fawke's day bonfire and photos of the event!
ReplyDeleteWe had a few fireworks go off in my street last night. Thanks for sharing your memories.
