Bonfire Night
We would like to remind you about Firework Safety too. We are getting close to Bonfire night and there are already quite a lot of fireworks being set off around the area. It is important to remember that fireworks can be very dangerous. You could check out local press for details of organised firework displays which should be safer. We have also found a copy of the Firework Code for those of you that are planning your own bonfire/firework parties.
Well that's is for this week folks
Enjoy your week and don't forget that if you have anything that you would like us to promote on this BLOG please let us know.
Your Blogging Team xx
