Fireworks tonight (5th Nov)

:( I'm paying 3x that much for a shared house on the same road (it is a nice house though)!

Old Brixton co-op flat... He pays less than £200 a month for it... Bastard... With a garden... :/

I do not participate in celebrations of the capture and murder of one of England's great patriots and heros.

I shit you not, up until 2 days ago I thought Nov. 5th was about celebrating the fact that Guy Fawkes tried to blow up Parliament, I was crestfallen when I found out it was celebrating the fact that he failed and was caught :(

There was a bunch of big fireworks out in Ealing.. guess you missed it though. :P

I got stuck into it last night, sparklers, chicken soup, the works.

Rubbish, I spent my night in A&E after mashing up my finger tip in the chainline a la Sheldon. So no fireworks for me, still it's got glue and steri-strips holding it together. Just want it to HTFU and heal.

Rode all the way down to Streatham to catch up with the kids just in time for the display, only for 2 of them to burst into tears saying it was too loud and they wanted to go back inside.

Jeez - made them HTFU and watch them anyway.

bump Anyone got fireworks plans? Im off to Clapham thursday!

i used to go to the one they did on primrose hill every year .. it was an amazing show. they've closed it over the last few years for crowd safety reasons :(

Same goes for this year as well.

telegraph hill is a good place to see fireworks all over london.

These are of the Brockwell Park display last year (couldn't be bothered to go, just watched from the window):

for all pigs moaning about there not being enough displays, Im going to torch his house this Thursday :)

Who's "his house"?

Blackheath fireworks are good, plus you can plonk your box of plonk on top of a parking metre and dispense wine into plastic wine glasses with aplomb.

Hammerszmitd for me on Saturday just by the Royal Masonic Hospital outside the park.

pigs - pigfarmer - OP that you bumped

Ahhh, makes more sense now :P I didn't bump him though, he's still alive last time I checked

Okay, bump again. I didnt get to go to any fireworks last year. Best ones to watch?

I'm heading to my nearest bubble jet printer wholesaler..

Battersea park is good, bon fire and everything, but you'll have to hop the railings and boyofdating. Unless you want to pay. Otherwise brockwell or clapham common, also good.

^^Sicko.

the peak of primrose hill should give a good view of the west end display

No Brockwell or Streatham this year... Cuts...

i'm going to Blackheath (Sat) AND Victoria Park (Sun) fireworks this year because i am greedy.

both are usually very good and i've seen both several times.
