🚀Free Bonfire Night Fireworks Display With Prosecco & Fun Chats 🎆

If you love Fireworks like me then RSVP to celebrate the preservation of Britain's finest parliamentary **democratic sovereignty** on one of the most fun celebrated days in our political history with a free mesmerizing fireworks display to uplifting **melodic symphonies** and a red hot bonfire to keep chills at bay. As you'd expect on a cold Guyfawkes Bonfire night (though I swear it use to be way colder when I was a kid!), we'll sip liver damaging **delights** as our eyes track with trepidation those sinister **gunpowder** trails igniting into beautiful gyrating flames of merriment in da sky and wonder what could of been. There will also be food and drinks to purchase. Or, if you hate the **Westminister** status quo and particularly the recent installation of the George Orwellian free speech pluralism infringing incompetent duplicitous dishonest gas lighting Labour government - you can always join to commiserate the unfolding plot! The part II **PRIVATE firework display** we went to last year in Islington is now taking place on the 4th so we will go to straight to the pub around 7pm for more socialising. If you would like to come as my guests (maximum 6 people) to the private display on Tuesday night (likely around 8pm) please message me directly on here or 07941319848. **======ITINERARY / RENDEZVOUS POINT / DRINKS ========** We will meet outside a Central London underground station (will annouce day before) at 5pm sharp. After a 10 min wait for laggards, I will escort everyone to the nearby location to watch the fireworks display up close. After the firework display ends - due to the very big crowds people always end up getting lost and split - we will meet directly in the pub and then play it by ear. Last year we gate crashed an art gallery party with free booze and then took a bus ride singing songs so nothing is set in stone. We love doing spontaneous and genuine fun stuff here - if you think you'd fit in for a night of adventure then RSVP now but **make sure you answer the screening question -** blanks, one word answers or indifference will keep you there - actually show you're interested in the event content!! The exact meeting point in Kings Crioss for will be revealed to the confirmed RSVPs on the on the night in private comments section along with post drinks pub name and address. Note, I wont be taking any calls or replying to phone messages during the 20 minute display - that time is for my own enjoyment. As we wont have time to buy drinks before hand, so I recommend you buy before you arrive - so that you have some alcohol to enjoy during the show as fireworks are always more enjoyable and fun when you are tipsy but not drunk; **REMEMBER KIDs: FIREWORKS ARE DANGEROUS - NO DRINKING, DRUGS N LIGHTING HERE!** I'll have a bottle of wine or presecco with me and may share if I have spare to go around. For identification, I will be wearing a Starwars lanyard. Also I will send out my number to the confirmed RSVPs on the evening. Once the waiting list gets activated, preference will given to my most loyal regulars plus those that have demonstrated genuine passion for key aspects of the event - we want people that really love loud fireworks there to ensure a banger of a night.
