Hi all

 

Do any of you go to the Eastnor Castle competition? My partner has bought us tickets and Star Fireworks from Bracknell are competing.

Freud. Artists, in this view, are people who may avoid neurosis and perversion by sublimating their impulses in their work.

Was a great night and thanks to Karl for letting me come and have a look at the setup. Spyro won and I dare say by quite a margin, there was no comparison between their show and the others really. Star did a good job given that they apparently kept to a tight budget. The finale set to "Protectors of the Earth" was awesome, including those 3 inch titanium ground salutes :-)

They were 4" Ground Salutes ;)

 

Was nice to meet you Sparky look forward to having you along in the future, great weekend, unfortunately a few anomalys with the firing system early in the show (fired a rack of shells and 5 cakes in one hit then another rack of shells later on) but nevertheless a stunning finale and a great result :)
