Bonfire Night

Bill writes: Last night was Bonfire Night. From about 5 pm till 1 am, it sounded like the Blitz all over London. Climbing up to the roof of our flat, we could see over the city, and the glow of bonfires as well as fireworks were evident throughout London. Below are a few pictures from the bonfire and fireworks in our communal garden.













Aline adds: Look carefully at the first picture, and you can see the "Guy" in a chair near the top. He has a balloon head. I have to admit, it was slightly creepy to watch an effigy burn, especially as the many youngsters were dancing around and yelling things like, "when is his head going to go?" and "look he's burning!"
