I don’t know if this sounds like a silly question but im going to be in Tenerife in the Adeje area on the 5th November and was wondering if there is anywhere that has fireworks for bonfire night?

Nov 5th is the anniversary of the attempt to blow up the UK Houses of Parliament.

1. Damn shame Guy Fawkes didn't succeed !
2. Why would Bonfire Night UK be celebrated in Spain ???

Also he was trying to lead a Catholic rebellion to overthrow the Government, in the end he was executed for this, well actually he wasn´t, he was going to be hung but jumped from the gallows and broke his neck. ;)

Spain is a very strong Catholic Country so can´t see a lot of Celebrations for the execution of a Catholic supporter!

I think he also travelled to Spain seeking support for a rebellion in England but the Spanish refused to support him.
Also ,I think, he fought for Spain in the war against the Dutch so there is a big Spanish connection with him

I've booked to go back to the UK for bonfire night. My first bonfire night there for 25 years! I'm gonna be a big kid for the night and go to a big one with a funfair and sparklers and everything. :spin:
