The Dogmother Posted March 19, 2007 Share Posted March 19, 2007 We went to the Luminox display in Broad Street, Oxford on Saturday night - the displays were fantastic, and made vene more dramatic by the high winds funnelled down the street blowing the flames and cinders around. Here are some piccies from the site: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dogmother Posted March 19, 2007 Author Share Posted March 19, 2007 It was only by chance that we saw it - Phil saw it in a local news item on TV. Unfortunately Rosie was with her dad this weekend - she'd have loved it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Louise Posted March 19, 2007 Share Posted March 19, 2007 Yes I can just see them trying to explain why Exeter College or the old Bodlean Library went up in flames Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted March 19, 2007 Share Posted March 19, 2007 Carl says when you join the Bodleian you have to read out a declaration stating you will obey the rules of the library and "won't kindle a flame therein" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
