I am just being an old stick in the mud really. But they do go mental for fireworks up here, they were still going off at past midnight last night - a random Tuesday! But it isn't to do with fireworks anyway, I have no objection to celebrating Hallowe'en or Guy Fawlkes, I object to it all being taken over by capitalism! Also, why is Roman Catholic in quotes?!
