The cat4 display did you guys donate money for it, I don't want to get anyone's back up but there must have only been about £50 worth of pyro there max.

He was hoping to notify us within a couple of weeks although BPA said that too for their course and it took 4 weeks before the notifications came out.

I'll send illuminate an email in the next few days to remind them and see if I can find out when everyone is likely to receive them.

I can assure you there was just over £400 worth of cat4 there including insurance. There was probably more than £50 worth of ignitors, but I had those so they didn't come out of the budget. I paid the £100 venue hire and food etc myself, and half the fireworks. Any donations I got exceeding this went into the charity fund which was split between Nottingham QMC, teenage cancer trust and Sheffield children's hospital cancer charity (PACT).

As I'm sure you know Paul, costs such as insurance are factored into a display. Also consumables, it all adds up

Did you have to pay for a 1 day insurance then ??

I expect it was done under fuse fireworks insurance as all the main firers were fuse employees and paul had already done all the required risk assessments.

Yes you're right, the display was done under fuse-fireworks insurance. I received my certificate too today, congratulations to everyone that passed!
