Nah! Completely different to Halloween!

We - for some reason! - celebrate an old attempt to blow up the Houses of Parliament on 5th November. Oh what little anarchists we are! It is kind of dying out now and getting merged with the Halloween thing but my gawd woman its the principle! Get those fire crackers going!

Well screw that then, can we still get pissed?
 
Well I don't do anything personally and my family never have really BUT the house i grew up in, and the house my mum and sister still live in backs on to a cricket club. Every year they have an organised display there so every year we get to watch the display for free from our bedroom windows :)


This year however my sister and her friend are going over to have a go on the fair etc so my daughter and I will tag along. I am sure my a couple of days then she's 3 year old will be thrilled :)
 
Guy Fawkes night.

1st conspirator: Come on Guido, think about it, the whole of England will celebrate this night when we blow up those vermin.

Guy: Well I don't know. I'm the only one carrying the gunpowder, hasn't anyone invented nitrates for farmers yet? that would do just as well and be less suspicious.

2nd conspirator: Look forget the nitrates will you, you're not going to get caught.

1st conspirator: Besides, what about the glory eh? For all time your name will be remembered and revered as the greatest revolutionary of all time. Bigger than Che Guevara.

Guy: Who?

1st conspirator: Someone who hasn't been born yet but never mind.

2nd conspirator: Oh come on Guy, children will celebrate this night forever with thanks. Just imagine: Guy Fawkes Night.

Guy: Well what about someone else getting the glory instead? How about you Bill Bonfire or you Freddy Firework?



Stolen from years ago, but still funny.

We used to always have a small box of fireworks that my dad had control of - of course! We had a small party - most of the neighbours did too.

Nowadays though its just kids with squibs!
