Bonfire Night


*** ... Remember, Remember.. The 5th Of November With Gunpowder, Treason The Plot.
I See No Reason Why Gunpowder, Treason Should Never Be Forgot ... ***

Ok, so in the United Kingdom, once a year on the 5th of November, we have what we call a Firework night
(this is for all the people whom are not from UK)
I do not know much about the history of this, but i have some idea.. but then there is always google etc. for gaining the information required.

I didnt have any fireworks tonight, nor did we have a display - or at least what i know of!
But once a year there is a local football club, and they hold them once a year but i dont think it is in November? - i cannot remember.. hehe
But  i know every year when the fair comes to Bognor during July when our carnival is on, they hold fireworks one night, kind of like an opening night i suppose.. and they have a nice display, but i have not been to them in a couple of years, and i took some footage with a mobile phone at the time also...




These videos i took with a mobile phone, so the quality is pants, plus you can actually hear talking in the background of some of these.. just to warn you! lol

There is also a big firework display in August every year after we have our annual Illuminations gala.. which is great!
I was involved with the Gala in 2009.. not this year as few days before the event everyone started falling out and causing problems and upsets, so in the end we just handed it over to the people whom thought it was for them, and their "event" but then, they decided to change their minds at last minute..
Still, there is always better luck next year... i guess!! lol

I have to admit that i love firework displays.. but i dont really get to go to many of them to be honest..
