The evening’s entertainment consisted of the fantastic Black Eagles from Tanzania balancing on each other’s heads, circus acts and a fire eater! It was all rounded off with a fantastic firework finale lighting up Rochester Castle and Cathedral. I had many phone calls congratulating Medway Council on such a great event. I hear that the Medway Mile 2012 is going to be even bigger and better. Watch this space!
