autumn is here...winter is near

its that time of the year.....trees shed their leaves...its the season for leave pile jumping for kids as gentle giggles fill the air.

walking back home today..approaching the driveway into the 'estate' where i live..i found myself staring at a sight to behold...below are 3 pictures taken

the colour contrast is best in this pic =)



ahh...loving it..after a long day at the office =)

on to Guy Fawkes and the Bon Fire and Fireworks Display on Saturday.

Brief Background:
It all started in 1605 when Guy Fawkes was caught trying to blow up the House of Parliament, want to kill the King la.. in protest of negative treatment towards the Catholics. On the very night the Gunpowder Plot was foiled, November 5th, 1605, bonfires were set alight to celebrate the safety of the King. Since then November 5th was known as Bonfire Night.

In Witham though it was held yesterday.. should be because of school going children hehe...There was a life band, children rides and food! But the highlight was of course the Bonfire and the Fireworks.

On a cold day, the Bonfire was just very pleasant. Pics Below!!

Not clear but some guys setting up the fire

Bonfire in its glory..lol..ahh nice and warm

Half an hr passed and the fireworks began. could not take the best pictures but 1 pic would do no harm. :)


and in this picture if u strain ur eyes towards the bottom right hand corner u could see bunny ears. thats another highlight of the night..they're everywhere..geared with glow in the dark wrist bands and blinking accesories. lol..

ahh...all in all it does have a romantic feel to it..perfect for a short romantic experience.. hehe..okie..signing out ..be blessed all my peng you :)
