Hi Margaret. here in Australia when I was a little kid, Guy Fawkes.. or bonfire night, was very much celebrated. All the kids in the street got together to build a huge bonfire on a vacant block.. Dads and Mums joined in, Dads roasted potatoes in the ashes, Mums often made gingerbread and toffy for the assorted children. And fireworks of course.
Now all gone-- bonfires are illegal, as are fireworks.. only special Govt displays and exhibitions are allowed firework displays. However, we will have our own celebration on the 5th-- my son and his girlfriend are having a housewarming party, so that should be good even without the fireworks!
Hope you have a lovely, peaceful break away.
Ellie.
