I WOULD just like to thank and congratulate City of York Council for the lovely firework display on Saturday evening.

I am a great fan of fireworks but, living where I do, I didn't think that I would see any of the display.

So you can imagine how delighted I was when I was able to watch the fireworks going off around me. The night sky lit up with the most beautiful colours and sights.

I watched from my bedroom window for the full 20 minutes and it was breathtaking.

So, once again, thank you. It just goes to show that not everybody was disappointed.

Mrs T Lock,

Cranbrook Avenue,

Boroughbridge Road, York.
