November 5th, 2009

Tonight is Guy Fawkes night....or Bonfire night. I'm sure that not many people call it Guy Fawkes night anymore. And if I asked "the youth of today" why we have fireworks on November 5th, I am pretty sure that they wouldn't know the real reason. It's funny, as soon as I start writing this, a house a few doors down has just started setting off fireworks!!
I love this time of year.....Halloween followed by Guy Fawkes night, it's a special 5 days....or longer, especially as I am sure that there will be a few firework displays being held tomorrow and Saturday too. I would love to be going to one, especially at Crystal Palace park, even though I am sure that it's not as great as it used to be. I don't see any advertising for it anymore and I'm pretty sure that it's not sponsered by Capital FM anymore. I remember people coming from all over London to go to Crystal Palace. I still would have liked to have gone tonight, but as the advertising seems to have been non-existant (and has been for the past few years), I didn't know that it was on. But then, would I really have enjoyed it on my own?
