We clubbed together with a few fellow Brits, ate fish and chips then set some fireworks off in the sandpit of a local park......great fun but bloody freezing!!!

Re: Bonfire Night
two - why restrict yourself to one when two will do? 
and besides which, we'd spent two loooooong hours making them with Canadian Wolf Cubs various, and I desperately needed to see the back of them. (I was slightly alarmed that local tradition ran more towards crucifixion rather than straightforward burning though... I managed to convince them that was rather more 'scarecrow' than guy fawkes per se, and managed to locate the bloke with the matches in the nick of time...) I was petrified I was going to have to take them home...
