    I know fireworks have only been in vogue here for 12 years or so but it is interesting to see countries who have their own separate new year and a pariah state getting in on the act

    China / Hong Kong
    Dubai
    Malaysia
    Taiwan
    North Korea

    Sometimes you're flush and sometimes you're bust, and when you're up, it's never as good as it seems, and when you're down, you never think you'll be up again. But life goes on.
    The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman is seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. True beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It's the passion that she shows to the outside world.

    Took Ruby to the display last year in London. Awesome stuff, and it's hard to find a better display anywhere else in the world, but that was bloody frustrating getting out! We got to Embankment around 6pm, got a bloody good spot infront of the Eye too. All we needed to do after the display was cross Hungerford Bridge, and get to Waterloo. My sister lives in Twickenham so we were staying there rather than fighting for the last train home to Dover. Well they shut the bloody bridge, and make you walk all round the block. Eventually having to get the Tube at Embankment (via Trafalgar Square, the long way round the top of Charing Cross Station, and then back down. Finally get on the tube, think our worries are over when we get off at Waterloo, only to find they shut off the entrance from the tube to train station, making you walk the long way around the block to get into the station itself. All in all it took us 4 hours to get from Embankment to Twickenham! Fireworks were great, but if you go be prepared for huge frustration!

    For those interested, this was my video from last year
