Fire and lanterns

Went up to Forty Hall last Saturday at 4pm to see the lantern parade. Children had been making lanterns which they paraded around the grounds. What we didn't expect was the fire show that followed. Watching this guy juggle with flaming torches and turn himself in to a human Catherine Wheel was quite spectacular. It was good to see the house itself lit up with projected effects on the back wall. This special event was the last now until 2012 when the hall reopens after its refit. It will be interesting to see how the house is refurbished.
In the meantime, I shall still be visiting the grounds and drinking tea!
