    I've seen it all now....the bonfire in a neighbouring estate is huge...easily 30ft tall. and they've erected floodlights on the road side pointing to the thing...astro turf floodlights,powered by generator..its mental.

    They should make Synchronised Arson an Olympic event, we'd get a gold, no trouble.

    Did the council start the fire or just put the barriers around it?

    In fairness to the council they done a great job, well organised with the fire brigade, civil defence, gardai there and goody bags for every child.
