Morning, everybody, welcome along to your free podcast.

For today, it's Thursday, the 5th of November.

It's gunpowder, treason and plot, and it's fireworks tonight, and just be careful.

I know I mentioned yesterday, it seems a bit pointless to preach to the educated, but those sparklers can be just as dangerous as anything else. White hot metal, be very careful. Very pretty, but make sure kids have got gloves on. It's a lot safer. We've all played around with them. And if a firework doesn't go off, make sure you've got a bucket of water standing by, or at least a hose,

just in case, and then spray it with water so it doesn't go off. You don't want to go anywhere

near these things. And they go, oh, it didn't quite work. Let's go back and re-light it. No,

don't. I shouldn't need to tell you this, but I know that tomorrow I'll be seeing, and probably stories about people who've been maimed by fireworks or kids who've thrown fireworks because they

to be so many people down there. Everybody from Barbara Windsor, Geoffrey Holland, Carol Vorderman, Sir Tim

Ries, Ruler, Lensker, the current Queen Rattling, Melody K. And as I say, there's also a

Downton Abbey contingent. There'll be loads of other... Then there's all the water rats. And, you know, nearly every single one of them is a celebrity.

Nearly every single one of them is a celebrity. And so, you know, I think that would be...

You know, it's worth going to... If you've never been to one before, you must go to one.G-O-W-R.net. And you get the last night

of the water rats proms and they wave, they do the whole business. It's lovely. So let's,

let's hope I can go to the next one that they have. It's good. They do a lot, a lot of good for

charity. And my lady rattlings, you know, do their bit as well so over here the other day we had
