Hope you had a good one. Strangely I had an "odd" feeling last night, and decided to leave my Sub at home when we went to a local display.

Don't know why, but I couldn't shake it...

Had a great time though, and the little 'un loved it...

We ended up going to the local 'Round Table' bonfire and watched the fireworks there... Trouble is - we go to the Southport Musical Fireworks Championship every year in October, and the fireworks at Bonfire night seem very 'poor' in comparison....
But great to get out with kids

I also remember Guy Fawkes night fondly from my childhood. Not much of a big deal here in Aust (focus more on Halloween).

What's that saying "the last man to enter Parliament with an honourable intention".
