Closed for maintenance they have had months to maintain it
Mands was on twitter an hour ago with her half arsed apology. That’s fine I suppose now they’ve introduced the option to amend your booking for another day. We’ve bought season passes for the last 6 years, last year’s £30 jump for the early birds was a shock but I’m not feeling were getting any better value for them.
