Fireworks go in off again tonight, for the forth night running. I guess they are up at Goodwood house.

I suppose people could be having 'gatherings' for Christmas :-(

As it's in the news - shame it's for all the wrong reasons, and it's a bad picture - but it's Mum and my elder brothers on the 'Empire Windrush'

Would it hurt to warn people though? so you can keep animals in etc.

Or is it a film crew maybe?

So people have something to complain about ;-)

Like me, I pop up when people least expect me. :-D although I am not as noisy as fireworks.

Researching:

They're pretty when they're just lights :-D

If they were quiet, we could hear all the 'aah's' and 'oooh's' :-D :-D :-D
