5th November Bonfire Bangs & Fireworks, smells

Hi,

Out of interest, anyone else really struggle with fireworks etc? I tend to watch them from the window. Although I do really like the smells ( any others having amazing sense of smell)

Also, too many people in one place.
I do love hear from a nice bonfire & crackling wood but not fireworks.

This year I have my new puppy to take care of too.

What’s everyone doing? Anything nice??

  • I love to see the colours and shapes of high quality organised firework displays viewed from a distance.  What I find intolerable are the ones that are let off willy nilly in the street or in private gardens—those unexpected bangs and whizzes infuriate me.  As for bonfire night itself, much like Halloween the week before where people dress as evil characters or celebrate horror, I've never understood the attraction in stand ingin the freezing cold surrounded by a noisy crowd of complete strangers.
