| Still daylight, which means there's only limited firework activity, so far. _________________  |

| I have seen no signs of any bonfires being built in my neighbourhood. When I was little, you couldn't move for them.  _________________ |

| There was always one at the top of the street. One at the bottom of it. One on the way to the local shops. One near the church.
And those were just the communal ones. On top of that, there were plenty in people's back gardens. _________________ |

| Bonfire sighted on the rural hills near the far North-West horizon.  _________________ |

| It's like someone's firing a cannon, repeatedly, on my street.  _________________ |

| Yes, not a single "squeeeeeeee!" or "whooooooosh!" or "fizzzzzzzzz!" or "POP!!". Just "BANG!" "BANG!" "BANG!" "BANG!" "BOOM!!" "BANG!" "BANG!" "BOOOOOOOM!!!" etc...

| I've barely heard any fireworks at all this year. There were a handful when I was back in the Midlands last weekend but that was nowhere near like what it used to be 15-20 years ago when they'd start in pretty much late September. |

| There was substantial firework activity here last night. I was interested to find out what the Scottish attitude to Guy Fawkes might be.
