Hello and welcome to the English We Speak.
Thanks, Rob, for inviting me to your firework party.
Is there any reason why you are having it tonight?
Yes, Fei fei, remember, remember the 5th of November.
As we say, remember, remember the 5th November.
I hadn't forgotten.
That is today's date, Rob.
But, yeah, it's what we say in the UK to remember the day when Guy Fawkes tried to blow up the Houses of parliament back in 1605.
Now, on this date, we have firework parties to remember the event.
Rob, that is quite a serious event to celebrate.
But this party is fun.
It's going really well.
Thanks, Fei Fei.
It's going with a bang, isn't it?
Going with a bang?
It's certainly going with a bang because of all these fireworks.
It's very noisy.
Yes, it is.
But when something is going with a bang, it doesn't always have to involve fireworks.
