Bonfire Night
Found a great video that shows what would have happened if Guy Fawkes succeeded in his plot. 36 barrels of gunpowder going up in smoke.
A really WOW video! Enjoy!

Cool explosion!
I am actually amazed that such a huge amount of preparation and thought ended how it did, so much back stabbing and scheming contributed to his failiure though, just goes to show that the pen can be mightier than the sword, or in this case the ton of gunpowder.

DS had to do an essay once on whether it every existed or was actually a Protestant plot. Wish I could remember the details but was fascinating.

Awesome
Because of my scaredycat dog being terrified of fireworks, we couldn't leave her alone to go to a display. Instead I played a utube video of the 2012 London New Year's Eve display. It was brilliant.

Awww, bless.
At least you were not grovelling round the bottom of hedges with a torch, finding ducks that had been traumatised once by son bouncing on the trampoline they were sitting under in a somewhat stupid attempt to get them to go to bed, then by the local firework display noise presumably sparking an evolved imprint in their tiny brains to hide at the first sound of a gun! Oh...in the pouring rain.
