Squiddy's Mum is SPOT ON. None of us are part of any silly competition slurring campaign - we're just honest families who are gutted at having our wallets and children conned. We have only joined this site to warn others. We went yesterday and tried to call the local Council (who granted the licence) and the Trading Standards - both of whom were closed on a Saturday. We felt desperate to try and warn others, and we also want to see some justice, as this kind of scam at the expense of children, should not be allowed. We contacted the News Desk at the local paper - Evening Echo, and have asked them to investigate. We didn't take photos unfortunately, and in hindsight should have, but there was nothing to photograph and the disappointment just took over. We left after 15 minutes feeling angry and cheated. If you don't believe this feedback then go, but we guarantee you, you'll be 100% let down and feel as angry as the rest of us. We will be complaining to the Council and Trading Standards tomorrow, and I even read on one site that someone had asked the local TV station (Meridian) to get down there and speak to parents. Any suggestions or ideas on how we can either close this event and seek redress are VERY welcome.
I was just Googling to see what people had thought of it when they went, not sure if it's better to be forewarned about it being awful or not though. It was supposed to be a surprise for the children, they don't know about it yet. It was £150 for the 6 of us, it had better be worth it! We usually take the Santa Special steam train at Swanage to start the month off and get us in the festive mood, but thought we'd try this instead this year.
