Very strong rumours that Sir Cliff will make an appearance with Bonnie tonight.

Yep, he did!
That apart, wow, wow, wow! What a night, Bonnie was brilliant, I didn’t know she was such a rocker, fantastic, Tens of thousands of people, the town and atmosphere was electric, the bars coped, the taxis coped, all that talk of bad behaviour? Rubbish, not one sign and we were down there until 2.00am, everybody was fine, no idiots, no grief, cracking night. And then the fireworks! Goodness me, what a display, superb!
There’s a lot of criticism/negativity on here but not this post from me, can’t praise it highly enough and I guess it’s the CAMARA that arranged it all and so they get eleven out of ten from me for last night. Brilliant.

Good to see the old guy is out and about again.  He's had a dreadful time.

I don't know numbers but thought it was bigger than New Years Eve
