Motherfawking Night


  • There was a HUGE fireworks display right next door, at Victoria Park.
  • It sounded like Americans decided to bomb the park and our apartment, plus the whole neighbourhood, got covered with smoke.
  • The alarms of neighbourhood cars sprung to life.
  • We are not at the park because Kevin is still sick.
  • I can see amusement park attractions glowing above Victoria Park's trees. I want to go on the bumpy cars.
  • I could hear a crowd in the park cheering once the fireworks ended.
  • Mushroom clouds and sparkles are still bursting all over London. If today is going to be like yesterday, it won't stop until 11pm and, tomorrow morning, the city will rise with a thick powder smog.

I saw those fireworks from the train home. I would have been there if sodding work had given me the day off. Got to see the ones at Alexandra Palace yesterday instead.

In the five years I've lived in London, I don't remember seeing so many fireworks. Have the prices of firecrackers gone down, or something?
