I know it's early, but anymore takers on pyro talk/demo.

I know a demo on tube rolling will be boring to some, but with a few tricks i use, you can roll pro tubes that don't need cutting.

Yeah, I'm looking to come to the display.

Here is a suggestion- Given the date, maybe we could look to do a daylight display? Smokes effects and suchlike.

[phildunford]

Although some daylight items wold be interesting, I don't think we could come up with enough ideas for a complete display - maybe half and half?

Yeah, that sounds good. The issue is just time- it will only be dark after about 10.30pm, giving us half an hour to fire "night" pyro.

Simple-half hour long finally

[Arthur Brown]

Nobody thought it was quite dark last time but the fireworks looked great!

We must respect the 2300 curfew.
