It’s dark outside at the moment. I can hear fireworks somewhere, in a garden, though I can’t see anything. Dogs aren’t happy. I can hear barking.  Who can remember that the reason is treason? There was a Gunpowder Plot in 1605. The Catholic conspirators wanted to blow up King James in the House of Lords when he opened Parliament in London. Thirty-six barrels of gunpowder were found. There’s no display this year, because of COVID-19. I remember beautiful displays in past years.
