Today is the day that here in England we celebrate the foiling of the Gunpowder Plot.  We do this by burning effigies, letting off fireworks and eating bonfire toffee.  I’ll let you draw your own conclusions on that one.

So here are a couple of really poor photos  from my phone of the big event on the seafront this year – the light displays on the Spanish City Dome (yes – that the one made ‘famous’ by the Dire Straits ‘Tunnel of Love‘ track) and the somewhat dissapointing fireworks.  Never mind.  Sure they saved us a fortune in Council Tax….

Don’t you feel like you were actually there?!
