Fireworks Night - Sat 1 Nov

per Wikepedia "Guy Fawkes night is an annual celebration on the evening of November 5th. It celebrates the foiling of the Gunpowder Plot of the 5th of November 1605, in which a number of catholic conspirators, including Guy Fawkes, attempted to blow up the houses of parliament in London and kill King James 1."
So we celebrated a little early so that it was the weekend... but we all headed over to Matt's cousin Claire's place on Saturday... for some homemade chilli and fireworks. Felt a bit strange letting off fireworks in the backyard.. has been many years since we've been allowed to do that in NSW!... some kind of just popped and fizzled, but most were great... and only a couple headed off in the wrong direction.. but nowhere near any people thankfully!
