So we aren't experts on UK culture, but around this time of year there are a lot of bonfires. All centered around November 5th, which is the formal Bonfire Night celebrating the night a plot was foiled by a guy named...Guy Fawkes who was caught under the parliament building about to blow it up. To celebrate the foiled plot, they created a day in the honor.
The kids school had a bonfire night - where they put a dummy of Guy Fawkes on the fire - last night where they light a large bonfire and do a large fireworks display. It was nice- very cold and muddy - but an experience nonetheless. See if you can see the dummy on the fire.
Some videos from last night.

Hey I saw the dummy. Usually I don't see those things. Looked like our fourth of July celebration minus the dummy.
