It was WrongMarks birthday today, so a whole crowd of us arranged to go to Alton Towers for the day (yesterday).

And that’s exactly what we did ... (if you substitute ‘whole crowd’ for ‘six of us’ and ‘Alton Towers’ for ‘Blackpool’).

We played mini golf (won by Hugh, who is Welsh)

We came across the best bit of vandilism of a council sign I’ve ever seen:

We stumbled across the most tasteless car seat I’ve ever seen:

We saw a sign on one of the rides at the PleasureBeach offering a Baby Swap system ... after much discussion we came to the conclusion that blonde haired babies would be worth 2 gingers, but less than a brown haired one.  Claire did ask the ride attendant what the system was about, but he claimed to have no idea… clearly he was lying and it’s supposed to be an underground baby swap system.

I saw a farmyard scene laid out at the PleasureBeach, complete with cows (freshian), sheep, goats, a donkey.. I could just about accept the elephant and giraffe as not being TOO much out of place in the farmyard… but the Tyranasuarus Rex!!?!

Pete attacked a Stormtrooper:

At 23.10 we (me and Claire) left Pete and WrongMark running for their 23.13 train (last train of the day).
They made it… then got stuck for over an hour behind an accident

Anyway, Happy Birthday mate.
