I wishes I remembered my ear plugs! BOOOOOM! Wowzers is dat loud! But I'm not sure dat I gots ears to put dem plugs in. LMBO!! Gunpowder is placed between dem two anvils and lit and its really noisy. The car alarms in da parking lot was all going off from da sound and vibration. Teehee.This special salute is done on Queen Victoria's BirdDay every year in New West. All da men in da battery is dressed in bright scarlet, one of dem lets me borrow dare hat. See above. Thanks :) I also gots to meet Mike McCardell, reporter for GlobalBC.
