Greetings Christmas Friend! What is Bonfire Night?


My family always celebrates Bonfire Night in the midwest/south. Originally it was an English custom - but the Germans also have a similar tradition. Both sides of my extended family came together for the Nov 5 traditional date for us to build a huge bonfire, sing Christmas carols, roast marshmallows and enjoy a mini-family reunion. Since family travels at Thanksgiving & Christmas time many family members celerbated the event in their own town. Then at Christmas we shared the pictures. It's a pleasant stop on the road to Christmas. :wink:

Ah, interesting, I did not know this was celebrated outside of England. Interesting though to wonder if historians don't have it backwards. That Guy Fawkes might have used the traditional bonfire night fires as cover for his illicit activities. Either way, it sounds like a nice time to get in the Christmas spirit. Sharing pictures at Christmas sounds like great fun! :elfgrin:

I watched this at lunch today. The audio sounds rushed to me, but then I have a headache which is no Christmas fun.

I was just looking at the fall Hallmark movies. I hope they show up on FeelN, Fall movies are a fun way to look forward to Christmas!

Yes I hope they do too Jolly. For many people it's the only way they see Hallmarks' new and Christmas movies. Good luck. :scene:

Don't tell Hallmark, but they are already on YouTube. I don't want them to be pulled due to "copyright" issues. It can be our Christmas secret. :peekleaves2:

I have not watched it yet. But I look forward to it the same way kids look forward to seeing what Santa left them on Christmas morning. :shop:

Merry Friday Christmas!

Working at home and listening to some Christmas tunes on Live365. If I finish early, maybe I can catch a Hallmark movie on YouTube. :whistle: :elfgrin:

Watching the Hallmark Movie Autumn Dreams on YouTube. It is too Christmas cute. I was never one to fall in love with main characters, I am in love with the chauffer. He looks like Perky who is as cute as a Christmas elf.

Insomnia kept me up since before 3am and my "to do" list is longer than my arm. I'm thinking of listening to Christmas ccarols and going back to bed. Wonder how that will turn out? :laugh:
