In Clacton, locals revolted at seeing this and it was replaced with a proper one

Guessing so Brucie - they looked quite busy. We just skirted around the edges last night, so could see them, but didn't actually bother going in. :-)

Really ? That's "OK" ??

Looks like an oversized 'Vesuvius' firework from a Standard Fireworks variety box ... & they were always shite.

Then again, in Stockton ... I suppose ...

Indeed! I don't think it looks too bad when lit up if it was just a decoration, but as the actual tree, how did that happen?!
