Fantastic night. We were really impressed with all the effort put in with the beautiful owl and pussycat and all the children’s lanterns. Next year we will definitely return. P.s. lovely photos and videos too.

A great evening, which I hope will be upheld as a tradition for a long time to come. Great coverage Gary!
