Morning All,
this one, is too good, it fully justifies a classical Oh Dear...
Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen's winter 'wonderland' shuts after hundreds of complaints - Telegraph
I love the quotes from the article:
"
But children were left in tears after they arrived at the site on Saturday to find hour-long queues for Father Christmas who handed out cheap plastic toys - that weren't even wrapped.
Other expressed Health and Safety fears after spotting elves having to push a train up a hill while other Santa's Little Helpers just sat around smoking.
"
"On Sunday mums and dads said it had ruined the magic of Christmas for their kids after forking out up to £22.50 a ticket for the "shoddy" and "tacky" experience. "
"Angry Natalie Craig wrote on Facebook: "I want my £220 refunded"
"Mum Simone Freeman fumed: "The Father Christmas asked my daughter if she wanted the ripped present or squashed one!!I hope it's sorted out for the other families but it's annoying for us having spent over £60 & to have to experience it like this!" "
Call me old fashioned.... can't these parents think of something creative and better value to do with their children, you know, make some christmas decorations and/or cakes at home or something more fulfilling and rewarding, why do they jump at the chance to spend silly money on this kind of thing ?
