Southwark Guy Fawkes night

5 November 2011

Time: 6pm - 7.30pm


Location: Bermondsey Park


Cost: Free


Southwark Council's traditional firework display in Bermondsey Park.


Set in the stunning 63 acre Bermondsey Park at the south end near the running track.


As well as the much-loved rockets, roman candles and sparklers the council is also set to provide food and novelty stalls, a mulled wine and spiced cider bar and children's funfair rides.

Or in other words set as far away from ED as Southwark council possibly could. Go to Lambeth's Brockwell party instead - that's local.

is 'bermondsey park' really southwark park or is it somewhere else?

But last year was rainy for lots of the month - apart from the last 24 hours the ground is pretty parched. The Muddy Hell event at the velodrome last week had to make the ground muddier in certain places to cope with the dry weather.


And the Sports Ground event wasn't that crowded on the other side of the bonfire last year - people chose to congregate closer to the bars etc. rather than to spread into the field.


Either way, I'll be in Brockwell Park.

Same here, though I hope they've sorted out the way they get people out of the park at the end of the event.


The last time they had a display there it took what seemed like hours to disperse the crowd.


Everybody was trying to cross the main road, there were massive bottlenecks at at least two different gates, and they really should have had police or other officials controlling the traffic at the relevant crossings.

And in a tribute to the pagan origins of the night we will burn you inside a wicker cup-cake to appease the rain/snow Gods.

    • No denying that Labour's first year or so has disappointed those of us who wanted major change.  But this demonising of the man is just ridiculous.  There have been some good things, but drowned out by this insentient right wing driven media hatred.  The same right wing media that loves Johnson and FaaReg (I think I've at last hit on getting the pronounciation right). A good example today - John Crace reports: That done [reference to Trump] , Starmer could move on. Britain had offered its full support to the peace process. Had worked tirelessly behind the scenes, with no need of recognition. Because it was our job. Recognising a Palestinian state had allowed other Arab nations to condemn Hamas. And we knew a thing or two about decommissioning weapons from the Good Friday agreement. But it was going to be a long haul. (maybe a rosy look, but nice to see something positive) A positive view on our position in the world and a player on the peace deal (albeit too late for many in Gaza) Here's GB news: Suella Braverman says she is 'ashamed to be British' after Keir Starmer’s 'humiliation on world stage' HTF can Braverman lecture anyone? Mail: Will Keir Starmer EVER recover from his viral humiliation by Trump in front of world? PM's efforts to bask in Gaza peace deal spectacularly backfire And slightly earlier in the Times: Starmer ‘duped voters’ and five more claims in explosive new book.  In this case the left sharpening their knives - perhaps they could go back to Corbyn's time as Labour leader.
    • This is one of the most stupid arguments used by all the far-right war criminal supporters to justify the unjustifiable. I can only advise you to study what defines a genocide, maybe you’ll learn a thing or two. Perhaps, you should also read about the great (Jewish) scholars Omer Bartov and Amos Goldberg who both (among others prominent intellectuals) concluded that Israel was committing a genocide. At least, they can’t be accused of antisemitism, I suppose. 
    • I am a big fan of Blue Brick..possibly my favourite local cafe for lunch..
    • Love Blue Brick and have had some lovely meals there,, never had a problem with service, always so accommodating.. Try and support local business, as much as I can.. on a recent visit, clapped my hands that Gail’s was done.. pity, as staff were great at the start, just went down hill …. Be, nice not to see another eateries..chain..  all for supporting individuals.
