Bonfire Night from several guys who want to murdered the king in the House of Lords and they called themselevs as Guy Fawkes in 1605, so that day also be called Guy Fawkes Night. However, people want to rember these guys, so Bonfire Night came from. And, at 5th Noverber every year, people will make a bonfire and burn guy named Guy Fawkes.During several days, many places will make firework and many people celebrate for this day. Actually, in Pontypridd southern Wales, 7th Nov. had a wonderful firework that I saw it.
With my frident, I went to the park of Pont and waited for firework. I really hoped the start time of firework can be quickly come, cause that night was too cold and we waited about a half and an hours. But it was my firet time to join the local activity,I think I had a litte exceting for that night. And Taht night I also ate fish&chips that I have never eaten than before. There had a bank to play music and sing songs. Actully, some songs I have never heared before, but I think it should old song and I very happy heared Queen's song some audience followed the bank and singed the song.
I think the firework did not made people disappointment. It was a high quality show, a lot of different firework flied to the sky and exlpoded amazing flowers. I love this night so much.
When I wrote this post I knew today is 12rd Nov. and yesterday is Remembrance Day, although I am not Walsh, I really want to say thank you. Because, you did many actions fo your country and your sacrifice made the new history to the world. Thank your very much.

EU and UK
UK joined EU about 37 years in 1973. Is that all benefits or disadvantages? Actually, I think in the earlier period time, there are more advantages to UK; however, now more negitives exist than before.
In the earlier period, EU bring power to UK and UK develop their economy, then she joined Euro. However, UK had economic depression during that time, if she do not adjust her interest rate, it will had worst results to residents. Therefore, she withdrawed from EU.
Despit, that bring negitive, can not keep out that bring no barriers in trade which is very useful import and export, easy process of travel which is conventent to every residents who live in Europea,

Before I had arrived in the UK, I konw UK has very different the method to issue currency that is many banks has right to issue money. However, in that time, I don't konw there are very distinguish between bank and bank.
