Not good.....

Seems the management is fond of posting on forums as well saying its all "lies" and appearing as AE's claiming to have had a wonderful time......

  • Saw this on BBc breakfast this morning - apparently 3000 complaints were made or some number like that.
    One viewer did write in to say that those moaning were just cold because they weren't dressed properly lol - must have been the management then.

    It's only a game

    I saw this on the news, UNBELIEVABLE. the feeble excuses they used on the news were hysterical, it looked like a bit of wasteland with a white "grizzly" bear hiding by a tree (A BEAR???)

    To appreciate this amazing experience means that you must have time and space to take it all in. The attention to detail of our theme park will truly wow you!

    ... we therefore have to limit the amount of visitors each day, so early booking is highly recommended.

    ADVANCE NOTICE: Three weekends have quickly sold out - Santa will attempt to expand his village, but it's advisable if you secure your visit to wonderland soon.

    :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:Oh the theme Park...................was that the merry-go-round I saw on the news, I must admit it was the only thing there to say "wow" to, unfortunately it didn't seem to be running........I must admit that grizzly white bear snarling its teeth, popping up in the trees, I found hilarious. Very "christmasy" I envisioned all these little kids coming out of the Grotto (forgive the pun), bawling and crying "mummy I dont like it in here, Grinch is scary", with a que of parents n kids entering at the other end, kicking and screaming..."I dont want to go in...pleeeaase, nooooooo!!!!!!"

    If it snows down that way tonight or tomorrow, they'll be laughing.
