Brilliant night
It was a particular delight to have the steam engines gather in my street prior to moving off.
That The Green and the streets were cleared up so promptly and effectively afterwards is a further credit to the Bonfire Society and its volunteers and to our town council.

Editor’s note: Mr Morris will be disappointed on two counts. Firstly, that his was the only letter praising the Bonfire Night organisers – certainly, they deserve a great deal of credit for another fantastic evening of entertainment.
Secondly, as we have reported, the fund-raising target was not reached and was down on last year.
We may be in difficult financial times, but not so difficult that we can’t even manage to give 50p for every man, woman and child among the tens of thousands of spectators, never mind the £1 the Bonfire Society would like to see.
