We pretty much do stuff whenever someone wants a display, so yeah, sometimes new year as well :smile:

What kind of stuff...? Umm, well pretty much anything, really. I mostly do mid size displays around this time of year, but I've done an indoor display once and a few musical displays as well. Sadly, I've yet to have the opportunity to do any of the really amazing ones, mostly 'cos they happen in England :tongue:

How do you learn it? Well, most people seem to learn it because they know someone who does it. The company I'm working for does a training day, but most people learn while doing shows...

yeah, you've got an interest or two :wink:

well, unfortunately it's only a few days a year :tongue: I think the most I've done in a year was maybe a week and a half total :tongue:



Hey that's my job! :tongue: I'm ze DJ over heree

Aww wish I lived in Scotland now! Would be so great hehe :h: Defo want it, can you come down and do a display for me??? :biggrin:

Indoor??? how do they go??? I'm intrigued hehe. Yes they do England is awesome :pierre: Aww okies!
Do you get paid for the job??? Do you do it in teams???

Haha i know I know :wink:

I learnt some when I was on the West end but not much. I was after all a kind at the time, would love to learn in much more depth though! I love fire, its just so cool and I can do many things with fire as it is and candles and that but not fireworks :sad: hmm though I'm not a fire eater or anything :lol:

Oh right, how cool. Hmm little amounts then I guess. So very few but still a good amount! You can only use fireworks so often haha :lol:

Should have been doing your job then :tongue:

Probably not :tongue: But you've got some awesome displays down there anyway :tongue:

Well, they're mostly just smaller and a lot more controlled than the outdoor variants :smile: yeah, I get paid and we almost always do them in teams unless it's really small in which case one person might do it by themselves.

Do you mean you've done stuff with fireworks before?

Sorry for the slow reply again I decided to watch another film...

Oh...Kay yeah that is a bit of a list, dayum I'm usually the most musically diverse person around =[ at least you're not like the rest of my class (10 whole people with the same mindset) which is 'oh I can play 1 instrument (all guitar) so music A level will be a great choice' and they all did badly for As. Saying that I got a C so I'm a huge hypocrite :colondollar:


Well the thing that isn't a banana seems mammal-like, right?
Wow how did I miss this one :koala:
I'm back on track ;D


I'm not too sure what hint I am supposed to be receiving if any?


Exactly like me! I always just switch off to watch a movie! :biggrin: I quite literally always have a movie marathons! :biggrin: had a 3 day one with 2 of bros not so long ago :colondollar:

Haha yeahhhhh LOL> Don't say i didn't warn ya :tongue:
OMG people like that annoy me. Its like that makes no sense its so post hoc. Same, all the people like that in my class failed too. I mean my friends are all like 'oh music that's easy enough' erm..no it isn't! There's so much to do and a lot of work/ time etc. It takes a lot to get the high grades. Well done :biggrin:

Most of the plays I see are small scale ones you'll never have heard of, but they're usually really good. I've seen wicked on the west end which was reeeally good but I saw my fair lady in sheffield for £1 and it was amazing! Hoping to see Oliver for £1 in a few weeks! Btw if I don't reply, I've gone to sleep so will reply tomorrow :smile:

This play called two soldiers...directed by victor meldrew himself :wink: it was just a small scale one you'll never have heard of! Wasn't the best but it was okay


Cool, sounds good! :smile: Theater is awesome :biggrin: you should come to teh West end sometime! I've seen soooo many shows there and on Broadway. I'm just such a fan :h:
Oliver for £1?! Cool, I love Oliver...my friend is in it. That's awesome actual Meldrew?! Wowzers :eek: Hmm ah ok. Still seems good :yep:

Well there's always been something between him and Ziva, its rather obvious. But they don't really go there. Thats like the one real 'relationship' you could say. But being that he is a womanizer is certainly not a good thing.

Aha thanks I wasn't too proud of my music grade actually as I was hoping for an A -.-
Music can be easy, Music Tech is such a simple subject it's painful, but these are people who can't read proper music and only tabs which seems a bit stupid
What did you get for music?

Critters? Not ringing a bell...

A series of 80s films like Gremlins but as a slasher film. They were really odd and low-scale but funny. It's kinda a cult classic.

Aww its well good hehe. Aww I think once you get a drink down ya you'd be fine. I'm quite shy myself and very insecure as well as self conscious but when I've got a drink in hand its all good! XD
I love that too! Except when it comes to meals my friends usually make me cook for them haha but I love it and them :colondollar: I have regular movie marathons! Movies are awesome :biggrin: I enjoy going out for a meal (mainly cos I can sponge off my friend chefs :ahee:. Since my friends & I are adventurous we always find crazy stuff to do, like around London and that. We're mad in fact my friend & I are planning a Christmas party theme: Moulin Rouge :teehee:


I guess so! Yeah cooking's great, especially for friends :colondollar: Haha that's awesome! :teehee:

It's technically the public dress rehersal but nothing ever goes wrong when I go and, even if it did, you can't complain for a £1 really! It's only the first showing of certain productions but, as I said, you get some great ones like my fair lady and oliver, and the other ones aren't bad!
I'll come with you haha! I adore the theatre. I've always wanted to see billy elliot on the west end! I also want to go to broadway at some point in my life!
