    Animatronics, you say? Like in the original Prof Burps Bubbleworks!? Nah, if they use animatronics they’ll have to maintain them. /s

    I wouldn’t agree with that: it’s extremely popular. It eats queues well, which is why the queue time is usually smaller.

    @Prof Burp Thanks, but yes, I know all of that. I was answering the post before which asked if this years offering is worse/less than last year’s, which it is, unfortunately, for the reasons you state.

    Then go for a walk if you’re able. Headphones/sunglasses/mask on. Being outdoors can be a real mood booster if you’re able to do it & have somewhere pleasant to walk along (excluding a dual carriageway of course!).

    But humans can fall apart too! For some it’s been a real struggle keeping it together during the lockdown for sure. And when at AT I often feel like striking a whole train-load of people - not just those behind me. Dummies are much safer in this regard. /s

    Wow - I agree. Although I do think that due to increased/unnecessary H&S laws there became so many restrictions on who could/couldn’t sit where/when. “If they were under X age they couldn’t sit on the ends.
