the link below i have been too in 1984.....it is the craziest night ever 5th of november BONFIRE NIGHT [GUY FAWKES NIGHT]

PEOPLE FROM ALL OVER THIS TOWN merge in on huge prossession that then divides into 5 routes out of the town for seperate bonfire parties..

sadly you cant see all the TUDOR like buildings of this old town on this link...but on the night when muskateers march through dragging cages of burning matter...and noise of explosions every where....its like being in a time warp of 1700

You can't know how very much I am enjoying those links David. I think I've told you before that I feel a mistake was made...I was meant to live in England...my heart is there and watching those links reminded me of our wonderful trip to London....the names of the places we visited..Cotswolds, Moreton in Marsh, Stow on the Wold, Bourton on the Water....I loved it!!

Did I admit that we arrived in Bath so hungry...the first place we came upon to eat was called The Open House Centre on Manvers St and the food was so good and so reasonably priced....when we realized that we were in a soup kitchen, run by volunteers from the Baptist Church!! They were so gracious to us...needless to say we left a sizable donation.

The rain certainly didn't dampen the enthusiasm of the musicians!
What fun...traditions are wonderful!

Thank you for sharing and I'm going to spend a lot of time looking at the other links on those pages.
