Description
Two important community events, Guy Fawkes / Bonfire Night, and Remembrance Sunday. One to celebrate, one to commemorate. Both draw people together from all backgrounds around the United Kingdom. Thank you to Bradford Cathedral for allowing me to use some of their sound recording of the 77th Bradford Festival of Remembrance. You can find their Youtube channel at: https://www.youtube.com/@BfdCathedral and their Instagram page here: https://www.instagram.com/bfdcathedral/   I also have sounds from the Eldwick Grand Bonfire and Fireworks Spectacular, which took place on 4th November, 2023. Their display was greatly enjoyed by all who attended. I said 100-200, but it could have been 500 for all I know. I shared a 59 second video of the event here: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/1Pr_Qu9K13A I have also shared on Youtube separate episodes on the two events that fell this weekend: Bonfire Night: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ysqegf4toMQ Remembrance: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jUHwiE3IPKk Subscribe to my newsletter, and perhaps like Donnie, win a lucky podcast prize: https://youtube.us9.list-manage.com/subscribe?u=b3afdae99897eebbf8ca022c8&id=5165536616 Support the show
