oh yeah and one of those bangers things that the processiion people keep on randomly dropping on the ground(why do they do that?!) went off RIGHT next to me

i actually went DEAF for a few seconds

They are are called Rookies and I was still tone deaf this morning. Great fun - If people don't like it they don't have to come.

don't get me wrong, i did enjoy it, i was just a tad bemused as to why they were letting off massive 'rookies' next to everyone!

In Battle Hastings

I think you will find Battle is actually a separate town about 6 miles from Hastings.

Just one of our quaint County Town ways.

I, for one, always wear long-johns under my Bonfire outfit.

More pictures of last night can be found here

 

[Bluejuice]

Well I had a great night, as ever.

Waterloo's display was delayed somewhat but when it went off it REALLY went off. Best I've seen for many a year.

 

[ezmally]

That'll be my last Lewes Bonfire. Too many f***ing idiots did my head in.

Waterloo fireworks were quality though. [/B][/QUOTE]



Couldnt agree more. The twats have ruined it, but waterloo was well worth the wait.

 

[jevs]

East Street residents move their cars as they know its on the procession route is your road on one then

Nope....next question wanksplat

 

[desprateseagull]

i think the people chosen for effigies are meant to be ironic - just like the guy who started it all, guy something..?

 

[desprateseagull]

...Walked home and was met by the entire commercial square procession walking up my street and i decided to try to pick a fight with them all after the cretins started letting off bangers under the cars....including mine !!! [/B]
