In bed and wondering why some silly fool is letting off fireworks nearby. Then I remembered it’s almost Guy Fawkes night and the general public are still allowed to buy fireworks. Unbelievable! Poor old Sasha is terrified, and Oshi’s growling and barking.

@crossingthethreshold Yup, ridiculous as that is. Really only with fireworks, not guys. We’re a constitutional monarchy and also the largest number of non-indigenes are or are descended from English, Scottish, Irish and Welsh.

I knew about the connection with the UK, but thought that some things might be left in the UK! I guess when you miss home, you'll bring things along to remember it?
