Bonfire Night

[Dicko]

I'm stuck with a couple of kids on Wednesday.

 

They want to see a fireworks display, but I can't find anything local on 5th Nov??

 

Does anyone know of any?

Rose bowl have one on Friday, and Victoria Country park on Saturday.

The Portsmouth one is on the 5th, if you fancied going to that. It's normally pretty good I think. It's on the King George V playing fields in Cosham.

If you have the time the place to be is Lewes in Sussex. The whole town is shut off the streets are packed, there are flaming tar barrels rolled down the streets etc. A wild and exciting experience! http://www.room139.lewesonline.com/

That looks quite good MOG, but I think Lewes is a bit far

Do they still burn effigies of the Pope during their celebrations?

They did last year, so I'm guessing they will again.
