I think the winner will be the one with the biggest diesels.

Which means they'll have no problems going round comical corner.

Thanks Wizz, but unfortunately, due to the time difference, that will be the middle of the night here, so I probably won't get to see the live feed :cry:
Will there still be access to the video at a later time too?

Hurray, they are still showing the recording. Doesn't look like you had very good weather though.

Weather yuk!! Grey, dull, wet, last night's fireworks were fantastic, almost 500,000 on the Quaysides and I was one of them. Got home after 12.30 a.m.
I've created a Tall Ships Gallery in Curly's Corner Shop, I've got over 200 pictures to sort through, so the gallery is a little slow growing at the moment, but expect it to fill up nicely in the next couple of days.

I haven't been watching TV much lately, but I've seen nothing at all on the Tall Ships here. I'd be glad if anyone living in the bottom right-hand corner of the country like me could confirm or otherwise that the event has been on the TV news.

Omission wouldn't surprise me, but before I give them a GOOD SHELLACKING, I need confirmation.

Some of my website is dedicated to this sort of NORTH AND SOUTH media treatment, and the Tall Ships will be a new entry perhaps.

It was certainly the biggest crowd I have been in during my entire life, a police inspector reckoned only the late pope could have got a crowd that big. I don't know how I managed it, but I got into Baltic Square at about 9.30p.m. (shoulder to shoulder in there), then hung around till after midnight to get my shots from the Tyne Bridge - I needed to wait until the bridge was reopened and the crowds had thinned out. I hope you agree, it was worth it to get some of the pictures.
I see Big Ry has been shooting totty for the gallery, well done mate!
