Lovely. Like Spike I miss the fireworks. Really nice domestic piece and I liked the insights into his past.

We had lots of noise last night, but no proper display we could see. We usually have a big show at the castle on the closest Saturday, but that was cancelled of course.

Thanks for reading and commenting.
