Just realised, 5pm close tomorrow could be due to the final Clap for Carers. That's fair enough.

Apparently they've changed tomorrow's closing time to 5pm, when it was originally 7pm. Bit cheeky.

I would be extremely surprised if they are closing 2 hours early specifically for that reason. More likely to be because it’s poor weather, they’ve got your money and it will save on operating costs.

Really poor though, they go to all the effort of sorting out sanitiser, distanced queue lines, all that stuff, then turf you out 2 hours early. Terrible stuff

It's hardly anything new though. They've been doing this for a few years now and they seem to get worse every year.

They used to just close earlier than advertised when the weather was horrendous. Now they seem to do it just because the park isn't particularly busy so I am guessing they haven't had as many bookings as expected for Sunday.

Dislike. Numbers should be irrelevant. Giving the paying punters on park the best possible day out they can should be the case, and taking 2 hours off what they’ve paid for is very poor
 
Like I say, with 50 mph winds forecast for tomorrow, I doubt many rides will even open, I was considering booking a ticket for tomorrow but, looking at the wind speeds, probably not worth it.

Those winds aren't forecast til 6pm and the park closes at 5, so you'd probably be ok. :p
 
What forecast are you reading mate?
50mph gusts expected all day according to the bbc, starting around midnight tonight!
I provide the wind within Crevettes, so nobody is safe.
