The fun stops before it begins_

The person who created a clone of my blog has conceded defeat before it begun so my plans for playing him at his own game are over already.

A rather different year for fireworks_

Anyone else that this year the fireworks that drive you mad all through the night haven't been anywhere near as bad as previous years?

I'm wondering if the new laws actually did a good job because this year my dog hasn't been anywhere near as scared as he has been before. Normally you start to hear fireworks going off a month before Nov 5th but this year I didn't hear my first one until a few days before the 5th.

Let's hope this carries on next year as it was certainly a pleasant time this year.
