This year, I got to watch two local fireworks displays for Bonfire Night / Guy Fawkes Day. The first one was on Friday night, November the 4th. The second one was on November the 5th. The weather has been really dreary and rainy. The one on the 4th stayed dry, but there was rain on the next night. I love watching the fireworks. This year, there hasn't been too many personal displays. After watching the fireworks last night, I headed home and met up with a couple of friends who came to my house for drinks. We had a variety of pre-made cocktails and Prosecco, and I also offered "Bonfire lollipops", which tasted of treacle toffee. There were a few fireworks going off about a block away, and we watched these from the garden.
We actually stayed up chatting until 1:30 in the morning, which completely caught us all off-guard as we totally lost track of the time.
Happy belated Bonfire Night.
