Hey everyone,

it's almost 8pm in Scotland and I've just watched a kick ass fireworks display out of my flat window. Yes, lucky for me they have the big city display down the beach close to where i live and i get to watch from the comfort of my very own sofa!!! :D This year it was bloody brilliant. Went on for like a half hour!!! gotta love fireworks. :lol: :D :P

So, this thread is for all of you who have seen pretty fireworks tonight or for those of you who don't have Guy Fawkes celebrations (poor foreighners!) to hear about all our lovely British tales of bangers, sparklers, treacle toffee and so on.

i went into town and i saw so many fireworks just from my car window but it was really foggy so you couldnt see things well that far away but aparently there was this huge display at the beach but i couldnt see it.
i usually go to tonnes of parties but this year i dont have ne to go to. it kinda strange. i am busy the only night there is one that i could b invited to so no bonfires of fireworks for me even tho i live in the best place for bonfires!!! Scotland!!!!!!

its cause this dude wanted to blow up the government with gunpowder but he got caught. so now we light fireworks symbolising gunpowder and burn a 'guy' (clothes stuffed with straw) on a bonfire. so terrorism goes back a long way. but what was so imporatant was that he was going to blow up the king as well.
