Bonfire Night
Last night was well good, had a huge bonfire party at my parents with about 40 people and lots of fireworks :)
... Oh yeah and a huge bonfire!
Sadly, I haven't got any photo's from during the night because I forgot to take my digital camera (doh!) and only had my phone. I should have a few coming though, so I shall try and put them up on Gallery.
Anyway, yeah, the night was class in the end, I say in the end because it was looking like it could all go wrong for a while. What with the constant threat of it absolutley chucking it down, not being able to light the bbq to feed 40 people because of the wind and oh yeah, a table full of alcohol collapsing!
But it got better and the fire and fireworks were really cool, Jamie and my dad set them off and did a good job keeping them going (apart from a small issue with running out of matches...). They must have gone on for more than half an hour, pretty much constant and all really good fireworks. Not really bad at all for £200.
Mike came down and got dragged into helping me bbq :) Which mainly consisted of us choking on smoke in the workshop - photo's should follow when I get them.
Another cool thing was I got to see some family I'd not seen in about 10 years! Particularly my second cousin, Noel, who was 5 when I last saw him!
Even managed to get a few games of poker in at the end of the night, so all in all one of the best weekends i've had in a long while! (particularly since I won the poker, sorry Mike ;-))
