Thanks for that input Miss. Health, safety and welfare were well good. The best for ages.  There was no ale, but I understand there will be some at the Loco on halloween in Wellingborough. My brother goes in there all the time and reakons they sell it over the counter. What's that all about? Good point well made.

Thanks Bryn. Great to get others' points on that and everything. I live in Northampton and I heard about it through a source over here. I felt let down by the lack of post-event information and review in the local press but what enflamed me was not a single jot on local tv news programmes. Seriously! What's that all about. Probably the most positive and go ahead art based yet provoking event since I remember and nothing to feedback? What's that all about? Thanks Bryn.Good point well made.

Looks great. Seemed like all the people were herded into the middle, like in the Metropolitan Police 'kettling' technique, and then they let rip with all the fireworks. Was there a health and safety isssue there? Who did the risk assessment? Any casualties? And, as Brain said, 'did they have any ale on the go'? I like a pint myself, but surely alcohol would have added to the overall risk.

I only live in Wellingborough and didn't get wind of this event til afterwards. What's that all about?! Derngate and local council publicity machine at work eh.

Innit?

Did they have any ale on the go?!
