*collapse*
We went to Pype Hayes Park tonight.
We managed to park on Chester road, relatively close to the event, got in, got food before the queues became unmanageable, and got OUT and back home in 30 minutes !!
The bonfire was SO HOT that you couldn't stand at the barrier and look into it - it burned your skin. It was astonishingly hot, and the barriers much too close to it, i thought. Much closer than last year' or any year before it, and we've been regulars there for the last 7 years...
We had a blast. Pumpkin *hated* the loud music courtesy of HeartFM but enjoyed the fireworks, albeit with her ears covered. At least she quit jumping each time one popped, poor kid.
She collapsed in bed but spent almost half an hour crying, because we hadn't done every step of her bath and night time routine, and she couldn't go to sleep without it. Poor thing.
All in all a good time, but my god am i gonna be pooped tomoz. Yes.
Remember remember the fifth of November, folks.
