while the rest of NZ is watching the night sky light up in an array of beautiful colours and lighting what could be potentially dangerous in their backyard, I am watching my glare of my computer screen.Australia don't celebrate guy fawkes and fireworks are only to be used on special occassions, in the hands of professional (so I've been advised)
One of my youth groupies said it a New Zealander had told him that it's because New Zealanders are much more friendlier than Australians. That's why they have it and we don't :(
Oh well, lest we all remember...
"Remember, remember, the 5th of November
The Gunpowder Treason and plot ;
I know of no reason why the Gunpowder Treason
Should ever be forgot.
Guy Fawkes, Guy Fawkes,
'Twas his intent.
To blow up the King and the Parliament."
