Bonfire Night

I couldn't blog over the weekend as I had my parents over for our annual bonfire night celebrations.

It is an odd celebration where we celebrate the failure of the gunpowder plot by simulating the explosion if it had been successful!

While I have no sympathy for a religious assassination, I do support freedom for people to practice their faith and the overthrow of the monarchy.

Like many events in history we all draw the lessons we choose from it.

Whatever conclusions you draw, make an excuse for a party.
