We arrived with plenty of time to talk through how things would go with event organisers and Cyril as he wanted to be involved with the release. The temperature around midday hit a sizzling 30 degrees and the crowds were out and ready to be involved. With the Mayor and local Councillor making a brief speech, media interviews were done then the countdown began...both stood on the new podium, Cyril was passed the rope from the top of the net as I held the secured neck of the net and began to cut the net as the crowd got nearer to 1. Enjoy the photo's and the lovely recording of the release.
