November 5 normally goes with a bang, not to mention lots of oohs and aahs, as crowds looks to the skies as they fill with colour and sparkle.

Things will of course be very different this year. Some will be having small displays in their gardens but for the most part, it will be the memory of Bonfire Nights gone for many of us this year.

The Leader:

Above: Buckley Bonfire Night, Precinct Way, 1985.

On the Leader's Local Bygones Facebook page, member Jill Howell recalls: "Sitting on the table looking through the window and my dad lighting the fireworks in the garden, then we had sparklers, and jacket potatoes for our supper and my mum sometimes made treacle toffee too.

"Later as a teenager we went to the Parciau bonfire (Bellevue Park). It was always exciting and nearly always raining!"

Joan O'Brien agreed: "Them were the good old days and the home made treacle toffee was the best."

And Jane Rowlands added: "We used to go to the big bonfire on Buckley common, went a couple of years ago and it was still great."
