There were no large public firework displays advertised on November 5th. (There are two on Saturday: one at Dalton Barracks, and one near Long Furlong Community Centre.)
There are some new Christmas Lights on the Market Place that look a bit like fireworks.
The Millenium needle does look like a Roman Candle, and there were plenty of distant explosions in the night sky.
Waitrose could have been one huge bonfire – using a long exposure.
And HSBC may well have been on fire. One of the fire engines stayed for a couple of hours.
i'm sure in not the only atheist who is happy to celebrate christmas – not for religious reasons but because it's a time that allows families to get together – maybe for the only time in a year.
ever since i got past say… 15 years old my best christmas memories are not the gifts but the family fun.
They could be "Winter" lights.
Are you sure they are "Christmas" lights ?
The fire engine actually had a flat battery!
