Scorrano Light Show 2015
Every year, the town of Scorrano, near Otranto in Puglia, Italy stages an amazing display of lights. This is to mark their Patron Saint's day. Santa Domenica.
The town has become known for its lights, and the companies that make them compete to produce the most spectacular show. They are huge structures running the length of streets and fitted with hundreds of thousands of computer controlled lights.
The July evenings finish with firework displays that add to the spectacle.
It seems that few people outside Italy have discovered this phenomenon - yet. There were very few non-Italians in a crowd of thousands that was growing as we had to leave.

    That clock was part of my childhood growing up in Nottingham. It’s so lovely to remember that tune and all the animals twirling round. I used to stand and watch it, fascinated for ages. As I became a teenager, it was the perfect meeting place. Glad it was restored but very short sited to have it upstairs at the back of the Vic Centre. Looks so much more dramatic when you look at it from the upper floor as well.

    I haven't been in the Vic Centre for a few years, but last time I was in there this beautiful art timepiece had been shifted upstairs to the back end towards the bus station. Such a shame, because that part of the VC is the arse-end of nowhere to be frank. Its rightful place is downstairs near the front of the building at the heart of the footfall. Anyway thanks for the upload, brings back some happy memories from the 70's and 80's.

      Sadly no record with the DVLA or the Austin Seven Clubs' Association. There's always the possibility that it has been re-registered with another number plate, or exported.

    replacing the water movement with an electric quartz one is not restoring it, it's ruining it.

    • @canonvela
      @canonvela 6 років тому

      Rather an unfair and inaccurate comment. When Emett built the clock the waterwheel was driven by an electric motor. At some time in the past the motor burnt out and, rather than replace it, someone decided it would be a good idea to bolt aerosol can caps into the flower heads and turn the water pressure up so that it would turn the wheel. The result was that water splashed everywhere causing a great deal of corrosion damage. When we restored the clock we replaced Emett's original motor and reversed all of the changes that others had made so that it was as close to the way Emett intended as possible. The only change is that we decided not to reinstate the water supply to the bouquet in the centre as this had also suffered badly with corrosion. 'Electric quartz'?

    Before it was re-installed in the Victoria Centre, the clock was restored, replacing the parts that had been lost over the years and repainted in the way Emett had originally intended.
