Remember Remember the 5th of November 
didn't think it was going to happen but the rain stopped long enough for the BBQ and fireworks.
Our house is high up so we get to see everyone's parties, but this year we walked round to M&C's place and they are even higher than us.
So we watched the people at the bottom of the hill set fire to their fence,
people over the other side of Parkstone let off a firework that went on and on and on and on.......ate a hot-dog, burger and refilled my glass.......and on and on.
Then the council spent the last of the yearly budget on a pontoon of fireworks in the harbour so we watched those by which time we found our measly 4 or 5 out and set off in the ever increasing wind.
The Catherine Wheels didn't set fire to the plum tree like last year so we all went in for a Gunpowder Plot Quiz (which I didn't do, because I didn't have my glasses and it wouldn't have helped because I was on my 2nd bottle of wine).
Then it began to rain.....hard, so we stayed and had coffee and 'After Eights' until the patio looked deeper than the pool at the bottom of the garden.
Raced Sue and Ray home by using a 'short cut' which wasn't and got told off by No1 son for being immature
It's 4.30pm here and I'm ready for civilisation again.
