Key to the 7 Lewes Bonfire Societies

LEWES BONFIRE

Just spent my Saturday night in the historic town of Lewes, just north of Brighton. It's hard to explain the atmosphere that takes hold of the town after dark on the 5th November. I'd call it a pagan war party but many wouldn't. I'll let wikipedia tell you the facts about Lewes Bonfire, but you can see it through the eyes of my shaky camera right here right now....

KAAAABOOOM! Had such an amazing night. We didn't see half of the action, it's just too manic. We found ourselves being part of the Lewes Borough procession, helping to pull a giant paper mache Gull up a huge hill where a large crowd were bombarding the pope with bangers and fireworks. We joined the crowd in chorus shouting "burn the pope, burn the pope!".....

It's safe to say you'll know where to find me on the 5th November from now on.

This is Noel. I met him yesterday in the Sugar Loaf, Market Harborough's very own Weatherspoons.

Stunners

Last winter I unfortunately found myself living in my art studio. No running water, no heating and the windows didn't even shut. On the plus side underneath my room was a transsexual club called Stunners. A super seedy little dive that attracted sexual adventures from far and wide. I never did pluck up the courage to go inside but I did hang about outside a couple of times and chatted with the smokers. They loved my camera....
