AK Seven Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 Looks like a nice place to stay... and the extra $60/person for dinner doesn't seem too expensive, considering how expensive it normally is in the UK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevet Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 That would be Guy Fawkes :thumbs: It used to be everyone had their own fireworks in the yard, now it's mostly organized displays in parks and so on. Probably not as impressive as some of the big displays you see here on July 4th, but usually a great atmosphere. Best enjoyed with a pint and a baked potato. And good friends. I think you will be quite near Melton Mowbray (famous pork pies) and Stilton (yes, that cheese). Enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
