  • So, I went to Alton Towers yesterday; good fun or what!
    It was lovely in the morning, went on all the rides that make your head and tummy funny; but then it tipped it down in the morning, got absolutley bloomin drenched!! lol

    Altogether I spent:
    £8 on half of baby sis' entry
    £2 on half of car parking
    £2.50 on fridge magnet (wot a rip orf)
    £7.50 on my KFC and half of baby sis
    £5 on a drink that could be re-filled all day and shared by us all.

    So £25 for a day out at Alton Towers, food and drink there is not bad at all in my books!!
