So it's that time of year again. Anyone doing anything for it? Visiting the local fireworks spectacle, or burning a Guy at the local bonfire?

He was innocent so I make a point of boycotting this shambles of an event

Indeed. Heaps of people from the UK seem to think it's actually a thing here as well though for some reason. Was talking to some ****s yesterday from Gloucester who moved out here recently and they were asking about why we weren't having fireworks shows etc.

It's a bit much with Melbourne Cup Day around that time of the year.

Hate it, sends the dog mental every year and you don't just get it on the 5th as you have ***** setting off fireworks every night for a month either side of it.

When do peeps set of fireworks then?

From a Wellingtonian's perspective, I wish they'd ban the private use of fireworks on guy fawkes. Fireworks, northerly gales and drunken ****wits do not mix well. On two separate occasions in the last 10 years, my house has been set on fire by drunk neighbours on or around November 5.
