I went to the dinosaur show at the assembly festival yesterday. It was really good.
The setup is great for a few beers and food as well.

Assembly Gardens is an off the shelf package. Can be bought by any city. Not saying it is not enjoyable, but smacks of lazy programming. I have yet to see anything that will leave a legacy for the city and future generations. The total opposite of what Hull achieved from being City of Culture.

Hopefully the legacy is showing that there is an appetite for something similar in the city centre long term. Best we can hope for.

To be fair, Hull didn't have to do it in the middle of a pandemic.

Speaking to the Mrs about this and we can’t quite understand the offering. Is it literally just him doing a show at 10pm? Is it like Coventry Dining Club? What we saying?

Anyone catch the drone display last night? It was stunning.

I couldn't get tickets for the Memorial Park, so my daughter and I drove up to the top level of the Belgrade Plaza car park and watched it from there.

It was beautiful and so clever.

Yeah I did and it was very well done and put together.

Hate to tell you this but you didn’t actually need a ticket as there was no checks anywhere when walking into the park.

Good few thousand people in attendance and really was a spectacular finale.

The technology behind this is a start on how driverless cars should be managed. Integrated into one control system.
