    Seen photos just.

    It looks good, seems a shame to burn it to the ground!

    I've been up for a drive past. Looks good. Think it's open to the public all next week so will definitely go for a look. You have to buy a ticket to see it being burned, which I think is a bad idea.

    I think it's a great idea. They have to restrict numbers as they only have so many places. The only way to police it is with tickets. All the proceeds are going to Foyle Search and Rescue.

    I didn't know where the money was going. It just seems alien to me paying to see a (admittedly better designed!) bonfire in Derry:pac: Great location for it though.

    I was up at the Temple on Saturday evening. It's amazing. The amount of detail is mad! I'll stick up some pictures later.

    Totally agree, a shame to burn it.

    I went last night, definitely worth a visit if you can. Looks really good when it gets a bit dark. Interesting just to walk around and read some of the comments people have wrote on it. Bring a torch with you if you do go in the evening!
