Disastrous family seasonal attractions and the never to be forgotten Lapland New Forest Theme Park

He is reported to having ripped off his costume and started swearing at the crowd of about 50 children. DJ Stuart Wilkin said Santa was “raging” as he encouraged the children, who were already on their way out, to evacuate.

He added: “I do think though the reason Santa was raging was because they booked a kids’ rave on the same day as kids going to see Santa upstairs above the event.

“He probably sat there trying to talk to kids with thumping music playing and was pissed-off. The fire alarm going off was probably the final straw for him.”

The entertainer is understood to have told attendees to “get the fuck out” after a smoke machine at a family-friendly rave in the same building as his grotto set off a fire alarm.

Having once - very, very briefly - worked as a Santa Claus I can understand how he felt.

I never even waited until a fire alarm before ripping my fake beard off and getting the fuck out of there.

Better still, they have been doing that at Peterhead, in the potential cauld-blast off the sea - straight from Scandinavia.

At the former Peterhead Prison. They breed-em hardy up-there...!

That one is not so funny really, more out and out festive fraud

If the cars pulled up and there was an old Sony WEGA telly showing Porky's Revenge! or Police Academy 7 in a muddy field that would have been more our thing.

Lichfield Winter Wonderland closes after flood of complaints

Lichfield's “shambolic” Winter Wonderland has been closed following a flood of complaints and refund demands from disgruntled customers angry over cancellations, “lack of communication” and claims the event did not deliver what was advertised.

It is claimed the ice rink was “a health and safety risk”, there were issues with heating and power to the site, the event was “badly organised”, suppliers have not been paid and requests for information regarding refunds had not been answered.

 

[moonsi til]

I think the Shrewsbury event has been scrapped too! Was meant to be on today but FB account is deleted & tickets now unavailable but no official public message yet.

I don't remember seasonal ice rinks even being a thing until a few years ago ... Perhaps there was a reason for that ...

Seasonal ice rinks are the original rinks available at your local pond during suitable winter weather.

Climate change has done for that then

Artificial ice rinks have been a thing for ages, though.

I maintain that synthetic ice should be used to surface all motorways - there'd be a huge improvement in Miles-Per-Gallon due to the reduced friction.

I recall skating on an artificial rink, in the late 70s down the local sports centre. Remembering disappointment and grazes.

Christmas festival shuts after one day

Shrewsbury Christmas Festival, billed as a "Christmas Wonderland with marvellous wintery surprises" opened on Saturday and was due to run until just before midnight on Sunday.

People who had visited the festival in Raven Meadows on Saturday took to social media to express their disappointment, complaining of a lack of food, no atmosphere and a lack of both decorations and attractions.

Becky Jones said the event was "absolutely diabolical".

Apology and refund offered by Neeld after 'terrible' pantomime

The panto was produced by professional company Oooh Arrr Productions, based in Malmesbury, and ran for three performances in Chippenham between December 27 and 29, with standard tickets costing £7....

"It was at awful. There were only three people, no scenery, they couldn't sing or dance. At one point they were talking to voices in the wings as they ran out of people."

 

[wiskey]

Peter Rose, however, commented: "I don’t want a refund - just return my magic beans."

Damn it, was coming to post that story...
