fireworks: where are you ooh-ing?

[Pip]

Heck, I'm a south Londoner and I'm going to Ally Pally. I reckon it's the best of the lot. Blackheath may have a better display in-situ, but Ally Pally has a great display *and* you can see a half-dozen others from up there. Plus mini beer fest and fair rides.

What day is it?

 

[gaijingirl]

Brockwell Park as usual. Another highlight of the gaijinhousehold.... usually accompanied by flasked hot mulled wine and then topped off with lots of grub and more wine!

Anyone who's going up there fancy meeting up? I could get gaijinboy to wear a flashing red bicycle light on his head so you can spot us!

Worth it just to see that!

I'd go to Battersea Park (£2 to get in) on Saturday, then watch them go off over the Thames on Sunday if I were you.

Actually, Battersea Park is apparently charging £5. Sod that.

I'm in the minority that hate fireworks. Look a coloured explosion woooo. My neighbours will no doubt be setting one off then a couple of minutes later setting another one off (how exciting!) all night long.

 

[Pieface]

I like the atmosphere
