# Yeah, we were along the canal side approaching the square
When someone set fire to a car just in front of us. The people on the other side of the canal were firing rockets at us and blocking our attempt to escape from the burning car before its petrol tank went up was about 3 and a half tons of chinese crackers which someone set off right behind us.

We thought we were going to die, it was great!

# I view it the same way as christmas
I may have no affinity whatsoever for what the day traditionally represents, but that doesn't stop me celebrating it for what it represents to me, which is a day to say "I'm proud to be English", even if I'm not. It's just become a dirty thing tto say, so it's nice to be able to say it without being accussed of being a Nazi
