Lightwater Valley

Revision as of 22:40, 10 May 2017

Lightwater Valley is believed by many theme park enthusiasts to be Yorkshire's best theme park, and is very much the Barack Obama to Flamigoland's John McCain. The park is well known for containing some of the country's most dangerous rides, such as The Ultimate and Raptor Attack. Many of these rides are excellent, though unfortunately the limited number of them means that even with (sometimes numerous) rerides, the park will struggle to keep a group of enthusiasts entertained for an entire day. The marketing department have been keen to emphasise the lack of free parking at the theme park.

One of the most infuriating things about Lightwater Valley for Grammar Nazis is its occasionally poor grammar. Apostrophes are missing from several ride names; these have been inserted instead into parts of the newspaper report queue theming for Raptor Attack where no apostrophes are needed.
