[RegimentalPyro]

A sound plan!

Are you going to be responsible some of the display? I'd love to find out how these things are set up / fired!

If you keep a look out for someone wearing mostly black, a large leather hat, and a manic grin then that'll be ME - Fourpack and party head on standby......Anybody else coming along that I can say "hi" to?

[blasterbert]

Anyone going to the Semi-Professional Fireworks Championships? (www.fireworkchampions.co.uk)

6 amateur teams, or semi-pro as they are putting on a properly choreographed display using cat 3 gear. Most teams spending several ?hundred to make truly awesome displays. Each display will be several minutes duration, using lots of fountains, cakes, candles, rockets, wheels etc etc to their maximum potential. And to finish off a professionaly fired pyro-musical display. Not bad eh, ?7 to see 7 displays!

Anyway, I'll be working there so if anyone fancies a meet up and a coffee...
