For those of you who can`t get enough fireworks, Im considering taking a train into London to watch the late afternoon `Lord Mayors Firework Display` this saturday at 5.00pm - 13th November 2010.

For those of you who fancy meeting up to watch it, and perhaps go for a beer afterwards, Im going to be outside `Temple Station` on the embankment, also if I get a few UKPS leaflets through in time, Im going to hand these out to the public.

Anyone up for it?

If I still lived in London Keith, I would be there.

No problem Vic,..... I know you would be there if it wasn`t to far from where you live.

Ive just registered for the british library reading room in St Pancras (not been to that building before) and ordered some old pyrobooks to view on the same day as the show.

I attended the display on saturday evening,and whilst i enjoyed the show,i always like a pyro fix,i have seen much better displays,this year at the Festival of Fireworks at Catton Hall,and The MLE run championships at Belvoir Castle,and Stanford Hall,i would guess the budget must of been slashed,perhaps they should have not done the music,which was not set to the fireworks,or the water fountain displays which could not be seen that clearly,and spent more on Pyro. This is a prestige event,and it need to be top notch.

Regretfully I didn`t end up going in the end because of issues with london underground engineering works (TFL), travel elsewhere in london, and the city of london police for not getting back to me in time regarding leaflet distribution matters.

This event was originally born on the River Thames, they should have closed the bridges fully to all but pedestrian traffic and had water firewoks/fire.

Where did you watch it from?

I watched from the Gabriels Wharf area so had good view,a pyro fix at the end of the day,but as i said,have seen much better displays,and this event for the Mayor should be a spectacular.
