I was wondering how long it would take one of you to pick up on that one. All schools were informed when they recieved them of it. My fail totally. #nohiding
Great feedback already about this event guys - Some of the theming is being put out after the weekend, due to the weather etc, but by all accounts it's being fantastically received. I recommend you all come and visit - Satan's Circus is a game changer for regional Halloween events in my opinion! ;)
Jolly was shut today due to high winds. Park seemed pretty quiet today too but the Halloween theming was quite good :)
The attractions were... interesting to use one word and are definitely a step in the right direction for the park. I'll post a full set of thoughts in a trip report sometime soon though!
One negative to end the day though - we walked in the shop at about 5-5:15 only to be told it was closed (despite the door being open, lights on and staff inside). I was with friends who hadn't been before and we're planning to buy some merch!
The car park was not very busy today when I popped up around 2,30pm. Shame to hear shop shut and this is one of my concerns with rides closing at 4pm - two hours is a long time to then walk around the park and have the scare attractions only operating - especially firework night - last year rides ran until 5.15pm on final day which kept people as entertained as much as nothing else.
Saw the weather for week ahead and sadly not looking good and for next weekend there is concern over a "weather feature" due - a long way of I know but I hope it will be dry and less windy - showers we can cope with but we all know our weather
It's a shame, better safe than sorry. Most people understand when they have to close but you always get a few complainers. The park made the right decision, the safety of staff and guests is paramount above all else. It's been calm here since about 11am is it calmer in Lowestoft now.
As a little sorry for the park being closed today, here's a little preview to what we're putting together for our main attractions at #TheChills this year. They'll be added to the website shortly...
Now that's very cool. This may be a stupid question, but does that music feature within Hobs Pit or is that just for the virtual tour? It genuinely made me feel a little bit nervous and on edge!!
Biked up there tonight at 5pm after seeing Jolly lit up from mine and from Corton on my cycle ride. It looks to me that Jolly has had some bulbs replaced at the top. Fireball looked beautiful all lit up in the distance. Such a shame they were all SBNO.
It looked like it had been a busy day as car park had cars in all rows right down to coach bays - many had left but there was still a fair amount parked up.
Weather changing all the time for the weekend - it was due to be wet and very windy for final night now it seems to have downgraded a bit.
