(Preview)
I must say I'm really pleased with the current merchandise thats on offer at the park. 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...

Music / Themed Sounds
(Preview)
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...

Historic Speed Boat "Rooster" to live on at PWH
(Preview)
For nearly a decade she was the fastest powerboat on Oulton Broad, her striking aluminium hull speeding across the surface like a water-borne E-Type Jaguar. Fifty years on, and still a crowd-puller, Rooster finally made it home to Lowestoft after an epic life journey to be welcomed at her ne...

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...
