I love he way he kept saying how fantastic the public had been over the whole thing!

Spectacular 30 seconds though.

Fab, wasn't it? This is how all firework displays should be.

45 seconds in: "Wow, this is a lot better than last year's!"

55 seconds in: "Oh"

I think my local town had about 3 secs of that display in 15 mins, would have loved to have been at this one

Mr McCuish said: "It was like daylight. It was absolutely fantastic."

"I was expecting a carry-on but they were fine when I announced that unfortunately 'that was it, put the lights back on'.

The public of Oban were only ok about it because they hadn't been able to catch the sheep in time for a quick 'fumble in the dark'

Had it been 5 minutes in, then there would have been anarchy!

Just as well there isn't a motorway near Oban...

 

[Keith Oates]

That's a little insensitive!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I thought that was much better than it lasting 20 minutes. Personally a bonfire party that goes a bit wrong is more fun..(but I would say that)

The whole point of fireworks is that they're expensive and last hardly any time at all. More people should embrace that fact. That display looked incredible and I'd have been pleased as anything if I'd been there. I've never been to an event that wasn't too few fireworks dragged out over half an hour or more and I've always thought it was a disappointment.
