Bonfires

I went up to Wigan again yesterday for a visit , and as usual had a walk around Pem , and a ride into Norley , On the field between The Green and Saddleback Cresesnt there was a HUGE bonfire , looked as if it was an organised event . Great . ( yes I did but some more pies .)

Great news, nordic. Wished I still lived there.

Whenever I go back I go to Englands for half a ton of sausages...!!

You must give us your recipe for bangers Admin.

Gerroff.

I promise...

We had parched peas on bonfire night

The ones you got on the fairground. I've googled for supplies, no joy. Does anyone know where they could be bought, pet shops here don't know what I'm talking about.I'd love to introduce my granddaughter to them

Here ye go lassie,

Have you tried asking for pigeon peas?

That's what we called them, also...

You're a gem. I'm just off the phone to my BIL to search Preston Market for some.

Found some. yesterday at the local Farm shop. I never knew they were also called Carlin peas. Cooked and now eating them

Look good to me. Just as I remembered them. I hope you enjoy them, Lolly.

Asda launches low noise fireworks. I wonder how low a noise? will people buy them? and will the kids like them,as opposed to the noisy ones? Still it's another step in the right direction IMO

That's it............someone , last night robbed our bommy . Lamberhead Road lot , or that mob from the bottom of Saddleback Crescent . Our shed roof was piled high .poo.

Or even that lot from Saddleback RD

Bommy was built like a den.Kids used to sit inside with torches and candles to guard it from that lot on The Green.
