So here I am in Stratford
upon Avon in a crowd of hundreds of people waiting to celebrate Shakespeare’s 400th
anniversary with a fantastic fireworks display. The practice run which was the
town’s new year’s eve celebrations was compared with those of London, and even
made the morning papers. So for the last forty minutes we have been shivering
in the crowd awaiting the start. There was some excitement just after ten when
lights began to turn off inside. Then twenty minutes later a cameraman arrived
to much cheer. After another twenty minutes an announcement was made as the tv people
were running behind. We’re now doing Mexican waves asking where art thou
fireworks and watching out for any signs of life from the show inside. I was
really looking forward to this show but my faith in Big Will is starting to
shake, I just hope it's worth the wait…
