Sparks in the Park Alexandra Volunteer Fire Brigade Fireworks 03 Nov 12 dismal display
As advised (NOT)..
Alexandra.
Pioneer Park .
8.30 pm - with 30 minutes worth of amazing fireworks.
???
Yeah right .. and whose army (of) ??? - Said that.!!!
..
What transpired was NOTHING really ..!!!
All it consisted of was - 20 minutes worth of all the SAME (type of) fireworks..
Most likely bought as (overstocked) Warehouse seconds..
The whole show.. was a veritable disaster from DELAYED START .. to dismal finish.
My wife & I (and others up on the Scottish Grandstand - Lookout & Clock hills) ...!!!
Am certainly glad.. that we didn't go into the cold & windy Pioneer Park ..
Just to wait for over half an hour .. for this to start ..
PAY A GOLD COIN DONATION ?
What - ? - Just to pay for better fireworks .. NEXT YEAR ..???
...
And then to ONLY SEE .. what anyone could purchase ..
From any: ... The Warehouse Store (in NZ).
Nah nah nah..!!!
That wasn't a well thought out & properly planned FIREWORKS DISPLAY.
Which was just (someone) setting alight several individual similar-type Shooting_Balls
...
Being those that any kid could purchase - as common store bought items.
Needless to say .. obviously all those people whom paid a gold coin to see that.!!
Doubtfully would NEVER come back (there) again.
...
Especially when..!!!
It's FREE -- in any BIG CITY .. and it's always way .. WAY .. better.
Most CITY displays have music & co-ordinated (synchronised) display effects.
What we saw there (on the 3rd of Nov 2012) was pathetic & dismal - in the extreme.

The Pioneer 2017 – Stage 7 from Snow Farm to Queenstown (NZ) & Overall Highlight
KIWIS PREVAIL IN EPIC PIONEER MOUNTAIN BIKE RACE
New Zealand’s James Williamson and Scott Lyttle (Team Watson & Sons Manuka Honey) took out the 2017 Pioneer Mountain Bike Stage race, holding off the fast finishing Spaniards Tomi Misser and Ibon Sugasti (Imparables) on the final stage into Queenstown today while Nina McVicar (Nelson) and Reta Trotman (Christchurch) in team Hirepool took out the women’s honours.
In a race that has already established itself as amongst the best in the world and with a truly international field, with 17 countries represented by a total of 154 riders, there were emotional scenes as the winners and those further down the field rode into Queenstown to greet family, friends and hundreds of supporters celebrating their achievement.
Team Imparables crossed the line first but were in reality never a chance of making up the more than twenty minutes they needed to catch the Kiwis, with Alexandra’s Williamson and former Masterton based rider Lyttle following soon after to a rapturous welcome at the Queenstown Events Centre, having completed the 545km in just under 27 hours.
