The new Banksy Installation, a sort of anti-theme park in Weston-Super-Mare

I saw it the other day on Tv; some of it's certainly clever, but I wouldn't want to go, it really is pretty miserable!

:lol: It certainly is! There were queues today, in the rain - they showed them on the local news. One couple gave up their honeymoon in Cuba ( :o :shock: :shock: ) for this instead :roll: They really need to widen the local gene pool.......... :P ;) :lol: :lol: :lol:

When you go on holiday, or go out for a day trip, you want to be entertained and uplifted, not depressed. So no matter how "clever" this so-called attraction is, it does make you wonder what sort of people would want to go and see it.
