The firworks went on for a while and just when you thought that was it they started again. You could just imagine somebody on the Arndale roof shouting "Hang on I found another box in a carrier bag "

well how crap was that down there tonight? one poor bloke switching the lights on by hand on broadway, seems they spent all the budget on the fireworks instead of getting a power cable long enough to light all the lights all at once

Hmm Spice United certainly left a lot to be desired, no not the 1 in pink
Other than that it was great!

They were in lots of cardboard boxes, I was looking at them this morning.

I thought they were the best Christmas switch on fireworks for years.

I hated it. Trying to walk through that many people while pushing a pram was a nightmare, then when people wont move out of the way and the pram taps them in the ankles they look at you like your the devil. Thought the fireworks where cool, didnt really see much though was in a rush to get home.

Re: please don't shout at me! BUT .....

yea i did the same it got anoying tho there was some one with a pram thay could see i had a double pram but nope thay still stand a distance away from the pram leaving the baby in the pram in my way and i wasnt going a differant way its hard enough pushing the double pram enough without having to turn differant ways just to get past the thing that makes me laugh is that the ppl in your way give you a dirty look for catching there anckles or catching a wheel on the pram and thay expect us with prams to move ha yeah right
