LEWES BONFIRE

Hi Nick

Those days i couldn’t see you because i was in UK,Sussex for Lewes bonfire and i had a great time.

Firstly This event is on 5th of November and it is held in Lewes,Sussex,England.The event not only marksĀ  Guy Fawkes Night -The date of uncoveringĀ  of the Gunpowder Plot 1605 but also commemorates the memory of the Seventeen Protestant martyrs from the burned at the stake for their faith during Marian Persecutions

Lewes is hometo the largest and most celebrated of the festivities in the Sussex Bonfire tradition. There are seven societes putting six separate proccesions and firework displays throughout Lewes on 5th of November. As well as this 25-30 societes from all around the Sussex come to Lewes on the fifth to march the streets. This can mean up to 5.000 people taking part in the celebrations ,and up to 80.000 spectators attending in the country market town with a population of just over 17.000.

I hope that next year i will get you to see the event with me bye.
