Obviously there's still the typical school trip gifts, but it seems they've upped their game with higher quality stuff for sale, such as the large orange mugs, which are ace! As well as the Wipeout mugs, plus fridg...

The park really lacks atmosphere in places these days, and the only place that music is played is on Wipeout. Even though it is just commercial chart stuff, it really creates a buzz around the ride! The park could do with speakers and different music lining the paths and around different rides. The sou...

Haha, before you all wet yourselves, again, its nothing permanent. They've confirmed on Twitter that for Fathers Day, there will be a Bungee Jump at the park. I guess it will be off of a crane? They're expecting it to cost £10 each, but that is to be confirmed. I must say I do like what they're doing with al...
