However, the reason I love it, is because we go at the end of every school year as a reward trip for the kids. I don't have to pay because I'm working, I don't need to supervise the kids, because they're enjoying themselves and none of them are going to try and escape to rural Staffordshire when there is "Rita" or some such to queue up for for 5 hours. I don't want to go on any of the rides and neither do any of my department, so we stage the annual History Department picnic instead, and sit around drinking coffee. Brilliant! It will be one of the things I miss most now I don't work there any more. I went there on a hen do once though, and was in hell. Cost a fortune and I just held people's coats all day.

I won a free trip at a hotel and passes to the park but unfortunately our babysitter has let us down so we can't go, but we are still going for the day to Alton towers, i hate queues.
