Sun, Nov 5

I think Dawn is completely fed up with November the 5th. Back in 1605, there was a plot to blow up the Houses of Parliament. However, the seventeenth century terrorists were captured before the buildings and King went up in smoke. And, since then, bonfires have been lit to celebrate the safety of the King. Over the years fireworks have been added to the tradition. Well, for the last 3 nights fireworks have been going off from dusk until very late. On Saturday night some even after midnight. Dawn was not happy.

Anyway, that aside, we spent the weekend at the house and kept Tiny company. Needless to say, she will be a very unhappy camper come Monday. Paul did however pop out to the Post Office down the bottom of the road to pick up the newspaper and also went on the treadmill as usual.
