Dobbie,

Our local rugby club had fireworks last night, and theres a big display tonight down at Gloucester Docks - its brilliant, and I will be going. Theres also usually one at Cheltenham racecourse, and lots of villages will have a display tonight.
I used to sit at the window nearly crying when I was a dub. My hubby would never let me go. I LOVE fireworks.
Now I go to all the displays and i go "OHHHHH" and "AHHHHH" at every single firework! Im like a kid. They nearly make me cry for happiness. I think they are so indescribably beautiful. (I know its pitiful, but I really do!)

I'm a cheapskate - I live in a house where I can sit and watch everyone else's for free - and stay warm!

Excuse my ignorance but what are the fireworks for?

I can watch them from my own home. The local yobs have been putting on a fireworks display every night for the past fortnight.

I quit - It's to celebrate the failure of Guy Fawkes' attempt to blow up the Houses of Parliament in 1605.

We both like fireworks, but we aren't going to a bonfire tonight. We were thinking of doing so, but with Trev having been ordered to rest by the doctor, we are having a quiet night in tonight. I hope everyone who does go to a bonfire has a lovely evening.
