The shows goes on as Paul & Dick duck the waves

It was touch and go in windswept Bournemouth but our intrepid team were determined the show must go on. With a heavy swell and high winds, the first of our Friday night displays was almost called off. But such was the professionalism of our senior firer Paul Roberts & his assistants Dick Budgen & Jules Gibson that they got 100% of the show in the sky for a grateful audience. 'The boat was rocking so much that the kit slid across the deck, but we fired it all the same,' said a relieved Paul. A big well done to both and here's hoping for better weather next week.
