Thank you David, that is another point people are not aware of. There is
a
difference between having a bonfire and burning rubbish.

For a change, I agree with you. Burning rubbish is *not*a bonfire as far
as
I understand the term bonfire.

Just on a point of interest, I mean, how anyone understands the term
bonfire is of course entirely up to them, but according to Oxford
Dictionaries:

http://oxforddictionaries.com/defini...fire?q=bonfire

Definition of bonfire in English | noun : a large open-air fire used
for burning rubbish or as part of a celebration...


I define a bonfire as setting fire to the garden waste that is impossible to
compost. No way you can set fire to anything else and call it a bonfire.



Balderdash.
Try telling these people that they don't know what they are doing
calling theirs bonfires.

You can build a bonfire out of anything flammable
