This is a normal post Do you think they had face painting
with car spray paints?

This is a normal post according to some reports I've read on this place, the face painting was 'two red circles on the cheeks'
... The mind boggles.

Shabba!

This is a normal post saw this in the local press this morning, had to laugh about
the miserable Woodland Elf (singular) and this quote from the local news site:

“We saw two donkeys and some deer in the forest but they were asleep” - ???

Obviously a rip off, but in all seriousness, what do these people expect in deepest darkest Dorset?

This is a normal post I actually feel quite sorry for the organisers
They've done their best, bless 'em, but seriously, £25? Isn't Alton Towers about £30?

This is a normal post i can't say i feel sorry for them
the web site reported that they had sold out all visitor tickets for the next 3 weekends and were almost/totally full on week days (it didn't say how many that was per day or otherwise), they even have a tv day on the 4th Dec.. not sure which channel!

So they must be doing well out of it.

Prices are:
· Individual tickets are: £30.00 / Family groups of 4 or above are only: £25.00 each.
· Infants under 24 months: £10.00 each - just add "Baby Tickets" from top of list.

£10 to have the kids pic taken with santa in the grotto (no personal cameras allowed)
further £ to gain entry to various rides and attractions, AND you also pay extra to get into the shop area.

This is a normal post "The huskies were chained up in a pen howling, yapping and generally looking thin and unhappy."
What did they expect? That's generally what huskies do when they're not running around.

The rest sounds pretty poo though.

This is a normal post brilliant!
"I travelled all the way here with my wife sat on a donkey. The accomodation was awful despite my poor wife being almost nine months pregnant. It was nothing less than a stable.There were donkeys and and other animals tied up close by.
When we came to register there were long queues. To make matters worse King Herod's tales of wanting to visit my son were lies, he even set about killing all the other infants.
I hope people take note of our misfortune and remember what happened here and what it meant."

This is a normal post Found this somewhere..
Farcical scenes saw “elves” involved in scuffles with furious parents in a “gingerbread house” and Father Christmas punched in his grotto, according to angry customers who are now demanding their money back.

One parent complained her children even stumbled across “Santa” during a smoking break at the back of his grotto.
