With the Sky-show on tomorrow night, are any members on this forum going to watch the event?

I'm gonna go with the missus and will take my camera so if I get a chance I'll grab some car pics and no doubt they're will be heaps around.

If will also post a list here on any marked cars that I see.

cheers

Tom

I want to go to the skyshow, but i'm undecided on where I want to park. I live near Dianella but I don't want to cross over the narrows... Just somewhere I can get in and get out fairly quick, from a North location if possible.

Anyone got any ideas? I'm not really fussed if I can't see the fireworks REALLY well, just want somewhere I can sit in the car and have a gander...

I know, i'm lazy!

According to the info in today's West Australian the foot path over the Narrows bridge is closed which is a bit piss poor.

Yup. Should be fun :-)

Catching the train in though... driving is insane!

I don't need to go to the skyshow, I can see the fireworks perfectly from my house 8)
No traffic hassles, no pondering where to sit, no drunken idiots (except the ones that I don't mind being at my place hehe...)
Good luck to everyone who's going to the skyshow :D
