We were standing just by the distillery in Miniland Scotland and the display
was spectacular! The launch sites were *just* too far apart to be able to see
everything without turning one's head, but the occasional delay meant you
sometimes saw an "instant replay".
We've been to the National Firework Championship for the last two years and
this display, although shorter than competition standards, was more impressive
than some due to the stereo effect!

But at least they've got them! I do like some of the polo's in the Big Shop,
but £60 is a bit much...

You got *two* sets in one happy meal?! Did they know who you were?

Alas, we arrived after dark so it was almost impossible to recognise anybody...
(But in saying that, someone else (non-rtl) recognised us!)

Until January 2000 or 2001? You do know that gives you 10% discount in most of
the stores?... Would you want to help in my campaign for Ambassador's Passes
for LLW? (Just mention to every member of staff that LLC have them on every
occasion you can...)
