Thanks Jake - and for the link too. I’ve had a quick look, quite a few recognisable faces, and will get back as soon as I have a few minutes.

At the risk of sounding overly patriotic, it’s events like this that make me glad to live in this country.
Wonderful stuff, thanks for sharing it with us…

it’s quite an experience Jane - and better in real life I think.

Poliakoff is certainly worth curling up by a fire for, mopsa, and the carnival will be there next year…and the next, and the next!

I’ve seen this on the telly… but it sounds/looks like it is just as amazing in “real life”, you are never quite sure when they hipe it up on the TV. I love this type of thing. Makes me feel glad to be part of this slightly potty race!

I should have been there - but Stephen Poliakoff and a roaring INDOOR fire just took over somehow. How feeble am I? But now, thanks to your post, I was there.
