I remember my parents (sensible people) thought it a good idea one bonfire night to build a f**k off fire very,very close the rear of the house,old 3 piece suites,doors,railway sleepers,the works as long as it was highly flammable,I was a kid but my remarks it was a tad close to the house fell on deaf ears.It was like one of those hilltop beacons used to warn of a Viking invasion,it was probably visible from space,flames licking everywhere,heat that could have roasted a pig.All the back windows had cracks in them and the paint peeled off the kitchen door,nostalgia eh.
