A Plymouth Hoe Bonfire Night of 'Oohs' and 'Aaaahs'. What do you expect, it is a perfect setting

It took more than half an hour for the bonfire on Plymouth Hoe to light, but that didn’t dampen the proceedings, according to Lynne Marshhadi on In Plymouth.

With The Citadel glowing with multicolourd floodlights and Smeaton’s tower emblazed with the words ’250 Years’, there was a fun celebratory atmosphere at the Hoe event, says Lynne.

She says: “The fireworks were worth waiting for, as bangs and explosions of coloured patterns burst through the night sky and shot around Smeaton’s Tower. There was a great atmosphere and lots of ‘Oohs’ and ‘Aaaahs’ from the good natured crowd. At the end, the crowd burst into spontaneous clapping before dispersing among the fun fair rides.”
