Remember remember ...

...Guy Fawkes and the Gunpowder Plot of 1605...

Last night Southwark Council gave us a pretty good free 15 minute fireworks display in Southwark Park accompanied by music. We got there 30 mins early and I was starving so we shared an expensive crepe, followed by roasted chestnuts - also overpriced! And then my camera batteries died! At least the display was good.

These pictures are from the very first bonfire night I experienced in the UK - in Norwich in 2005. The large bonfire was lit in the middle of a sports field - it looked amazing.
When roasted properly these are delicious little warm, slightly sweet in the centre, treats.
