    There was a display in Castletown last night. @RJS & myself got the full bore of it. He was leaving his home and I was going in mine. My poor cats were really frit up.

    MOD Fireworks is November 3rd, I believe - no doubt we will have further details from @Hixon & MOD Fireworks at some point.

    Probably similar arrangements to previous years.

    Haha, after so many, it's you that I would expect to have lost count...

    The title appears to have been rectified.

    Saxon Hill do not appear to be putting on a Low Noise show this year.

    They do appear to now be an Academy school.

    I'm almost certain that these two random facts are entirely unrelated.

    I'm tempted to go up the castle if there's other people going, best free display in town.

    We usually watch it from our garden but I'd like to support it too - and just for once @Goldilox is free.
