VALENTINE'S night proved a particularly hot and fiery evening for members of one York club - but it wasn't all down to romance.
New Earswick Sports and Social Club chose the day for romance to hold its rearranged annual fundraising bonfire and fireworks display.
The event had been rained off on November 5, and another attempt later on last year had clashed with the firefighters' strike.
David Lockwood, club treasurer, said it was a very cold evening, but the event had attracted about 500 people.
He said: "People enjoyed themselves, it has been a good evening and I think it was a success."
