So here we are, the night before the last bonfire of the year :(

The weather is looking mild and dry, the costumes are slightly singed, the torches are ready and tomorrow night it’s BARCOMBE BONFIRE NIGHT! :)

I visited Barcombe today on my bike, saw the bonfire being built, tested the pub, took some pictures and got excited :D

I went to Barcombe Bonfire for the first time last year, and even considered joining, because it’s the closest society to work and I felt they did a really good job!

So go to the village shop, buy your programme, give generously to the buckets and enjoy the night!

  1. This year was the best ever wasn’t it!

    Got any photos?

  2. I’m sitting in the pub now Charlie, just asked Jessica what she thought and she said it was ‘bloody awesome’ and Mark and Jessica both said the fireworks were best this year. Photos will be looked at later or tomorrow!

  3. Just wanted to say that these pictures, just like the atmosphere on Rocket FM, really do capture the mood of the moment and the excitement just as it would if you really were going to be there yourself – even if you don’t live in the area. Thanks are in order anyway.

  4. Can I see your pictures & may require copies for the chairmans big black book
