can we do a bit better today, please?
are you watching or setting off any fireworks this year?

we're going to the display and bbq at the hurlingham club with friends. their baby sobs at any noise that is even slightly loud, so this can only go well.

I will set off some in our garden.
A few years ago I angled a rocket incorrectly. I think it must have hit a branch so it sort of spiralled off and exploded in someone's garden. No fatalities were reported.

Strap the baby to a fat rocket and light the fuse.
Sorted.

Dunno what "plot toffee" is, and I've never knowingly eaten parkin,
probably by virtue of being a southerner.

poxy southerners would call them treacle toffee and gingerbread
even though it's not really gingerbread.

they are both excellent.

I see.
I'm very fond of both of those things.

Lewes fire festival is quite near me.
Would never go again, horribly packed. I've also got some indoor fireworks, which I assume will be shit.

We go to one of our neighbours farms
Loads of room, mahoosive fire, loads of fireworks, and way more food than even the greediest person could trough. Sunday I will mostly be sleeping it off.

We'll be going to my brother's house to wave sparklers in my two year old nephew's face
and then laugh at him when he cries because he's not allowed one lol.

We went to the best bonfire and display in the country last weekend, which just so happens to be near my home town. Blew OG's mind, it did.
