I'm sure a few of you may have heard about/seen this. I was walking around Fitzrovia on Sat night after leaving a very crap Halloween party and saw that the BT Tower was lit up like a Xmas tree. Thought I would take a closer look. As I walked up to the base a couple of guys came out of a side door and said 'stick around for 10 mins, there's a firework display". So the five of us lay in the street with phones in hand to film. Thought it looked kinda cool.

We were in Potion bar and popped out for a cig. After, I checked the googlegod to see what it was about and saw we were promised a pyrotechnic display lighting up Lodon's skyline. It was cool, but I expected MORE!

London Olympic Commitee - 1000 days to go until the Olympics I think.

Although I bet that everyone in the neighbouring buildings absolutely dropped their load when that first big salvo went off - 9/11 all over again!
Also - here's one I caught in France on Russian New Year in January. Very lovely heart-shaped firework :)
