Bonfire Night

Okay, so this is the firework display in Wellington, New Zealand, but Kilchoan does its best every year to emulate best practice. We do struggle under a number of constraints. For example, it's quite difficult to produce an inspiring display when the wind is force 8 and the rockets have a disconcerting habit of travelling horizontally rather then vertically. And rain isn't only a damper on human spirits.

With bonfire night only a week away, appeals are going out for firewood. If anyone has any, please take it along to the site next to the Community Centre, or contact Gael on 07920 752 742 to arrange collection.

The event is at 6.30 on 5th November - food, fireworks and fun guaranteed.
