Turn out was well down this year, do you not think people who wear ww1\2 costumes are taking the piss out of the guys who fought for king and country and the fallen that did not make it, when all bonfire followers do is drink themselves until they cannot stand and making utter fools of themselves and no respect for what the uniform stands for. shame Lewes bonfire is just drink and drug fueled

You raise an interesting point in respect of drinking. Yes I saw a lot of people in costume (not all military) consuming huge amounts of alcohol - including some in the parades. By the end of the night many couldn�t even stand and there were several rolling around on the street outside St Thomas Church. It seems some people just can�t let go of the macho culture.

From what I understand of Soldiers, they would have been just as anebriated, sobriety is not a requirement for respect.
The Bonfire boys you speak of will be at the war memorial on Sunday, will you?
