    Firework displays

    Did anyone see any good Firework Displays at the weekend? Or maybe you are going to one tonight?

    The Fishbourne recreation ground held their display again this year which was completely free. Sadly we just missed the main display by the time we got there, as it was much earlier than last year, but another display was going on across the road so we watched that one instead.

    There are also some other good ones in that area each year, but we missed them all this year due to other things happening.

    The allotment society where my GF has an allotment is holding a Bonfire party tonight, but I'm also going to be missing that as I'm working.

    Hopefully next year we will get to see them all.

    If you haven't played a classic game in years, it's never too late to start!

    We go to the top quality display at Banchory every year - they have it before bonfire night so we get to see this one and the one at the beach in Aberdeen which we can see from our bedroom window. Banchory is better though - its shorter but with just as many fireworks crammed into the time, and its surrounded by woodland so the sound booms and bounces off of the trees. It was probably this that caused my daughter to scream 'Daddy I want to go home' at the top of her voice after 5 minutes...
    Anyways, my GF is taking her to the beach one tonight as she couldnt make the saturday show and I am being wined and dined by a client. Its a hard life...

    They have a display in our local park.
    Should be able to see it from my couch with any luck.

    I went to the one at Clifton Park Yesterday. It was good, but I don't think it was quite as good as last year.

    There have also been some good fireworks that I could see out of the window.

    It was hardly worth going to the park on Sunday considering the amount of good fireworks I could see out of the Window.

    Same here.
    Everyone tends to use industrial fireworks anyway.
    They are always seem to get nicked from the local displays .
