Hastings Borough Bonfire is meeting tonight; all Bonfire Boys attending have been advised to stay away from the pier. The Society in its present form has existed since 1995; the original Society ended immediately after the Second World War.

The Cliffe boys in the Lewes video are actively discouraging the presence of turkeys as the fireworks you will observe them merrily lighting at their torches and dropping at each other's feet, kicking into the path of a friend, and so on, are sold as agricultural bird-scarers. (The other prominent fireworks being used to good effect are hand-held yacht flares and Chinese crackers.)
