Early hours of the 4th of November here and already people are letting off fireworks.So apart from being an outdated custom from the "mother land" what has it got to do with a colonial country on the other side of the world. .

I could use some quiet time,it's colder and Fall is bringing the Holiday I love.
We are able to have Thanksgiving ,all together this year.Cozy family time.
They have been working hard,I hold two jobs to cover higher costs of
Winter and Fall.Anytime both jobs close for a day and we can spend it
together is another memory we create of loving each other.
November 11 is Veterans' Day." Thank you for your Service".BTW.
Enjoy your Guy Fawkes,is it a family celebration or more public drinking,parade?
Yep.
Antifa (Anti Fascists) is gonna overthrow the U.S. Government.
It all starts tomorrow (Nov. 4th) with a well-publicized kickoff media event...A National Day Of Chaos
NO TRUMP!
NO WALL!
NO U.S.A. AT ALL!
TRUMP & PENCE MUST GO!
THE NIGHTMARE MUST END!
This bit of advice to Antifa from A GLOCK FANBOY...
Basically, the gist of Mr. Fanboy's message is...
'You take away my pen; I draw my sword!'
Others of Mr. Fanboy's ilk have published THEIR schedule of events for the coming Civil War...
Nov. 4...Civil War.
Nov. 5...Martial Law.
Nov. 6...Antifa Massacred Nationwide.
Nov. 7...Business As Usual.
Political upheaval in a country in which hundreds of millions of firearms are in the hands of some eighty million people...
Should Antifa choose to ignore Mr. Fanboy's advice -
this could get...interesting.
colonialism. Poor Sean Connery. He won't coming back to Scotland
Today if he did the same he would be a national hero
Up until around 5 years ago, Guy Fawkes night was just a few fireworks being let off by random households. Now it is military grade mortars that feel like my windows are going to blow in. New Years Eve they start at 5pm and continue for 8 hours or more. Many escape the area and head for a large picnic area on the outskirts of the city until 1am. I do the same, its freezing cold, but better than having my brain blasted out of my skull.
It is truly horrendous, and makes the entire winter months an endurance test. The government loves it, as every year people go to work, earn money, buy fireworks and burn their wages. It takes millions of pounds out of circulation. They have already taxed the earnings, and taken the VAT on the sales.
Hundreds of thousands have signed online petitions demanding action but the UK government couldn't care less.
