Guy Fawkes Remembered

Not only the youngsters, but mum and dad too thoroughly enjoyed the annual excuse to let off a bit of steam and fireworks to celebrate Guy Fawkes Day, The Enner Glynne School committee saw in the celebration a chance to make a few bob and staged a fireworks display and guy competition (plus stalls) and at Wakefield the show run by the fire brigade attracted a very large crowd. The pics on this page were taken at the Enner Glynne School.
