Haven't seen a fire in the park for the past few years at least. Firework Display is normally pretty good though

The Bonfire (one of the few left now) is usually on the beach and so are the fireworks. The tide is in by 11pm. People are encouraged to stay on the prom by the Lifeboat men and there is usually some refreshments available to buy. Usual bucket collection for the Lifeboats - a voluntary organisation which saves local lives. Parking is usually in any of the streets leading down to Hoylake Prom. Last year the rain was horizontal, but its all in a good cause - wrap up warm and waterproof!

Just back from the display in Wallasey central Park. I am not really a "fireworks person" but the Mrs wanted to go.

I must say I was quite impressed with the display. A good variety of types and I guess it lasted 25 mins. There was a very good crowd turn out. The amusing bit (to me) was the Police control van getting stuck in the mud and having to be pulled out by a breakdown truck.

Sure, it is easy enough to say that in the current economic climate it is wasteful to spend ratepayer money. Fundamentally that is a correct view but I am sure that this years display was fully committed financially well over a year ago and cancellation was not an option even if that is what some folk would suggest.

You'll be surprised but the Chav's where helping the Police get the Police van out...Wasn't too bad at central park, didn't last very long though, but better than the usual one I go to in Vikki/Mersey park
