According to their own webite, Camelot has closed down once again.

We regret to inform you that Camelot Theme Park will not be opening in 2012, as many of you may know the recent financial situation of the country has affected us greatly. Last season started quite well, but towards the end of the year we realised that we simply could not remain open. We want to thank the many people who have visited and supported us over the years and apologise to anybody who was wishing to visit this year. We hope that The Magical Kingdom of Camelot will continue to exist in the memories of everyone who once visited, thank you.

Not very convincing! Especially when the website clearly states re-opening 31st march :)

Re: Camelot Closed... Again

Hahaha, this is the best thing Camelot has ever done <3

My estimation has gone up a notch.

Still not going to visit though.

It's the same as last year, they did the same. They're literally just keeping it open for the sake of it, hence them not adding anything new etc. BUT, now that I've mentioned not adding anything new, something interesting pope into my Newsfeed;

One of my friends is the "Evil" Knight in the Jousting and put that picture up, ALL the comments state "It's for a new ride", these are from people who work in the shows etc at the park.

Believe what you want, (I was wishing it was going to roll into Whirlwind and knock the **** down).

Meerkats are new this year! Meerkats! Y'know, like off the telly, but real.

That'll bring 'em in (especially today, when it's pissing it down here)

I was joking, I know Chorley is on the other side of the M6, I know the area very well ;)

Yeah, he's out on the streets there most nights, begging. "Buy a scare attraction g'vner? I'm doin' two furra paand at the mo'"*.

He doesn't have much luck, but more than he did trying to sell sexual favours...


*Accent** has been changed to protect his identity.



**Though to be fair, if you're going to try and sell something in Lancashire, you really want to avoid the scouse accent, but hey ho ;)

Just different forms of horror really though isn't it. It's just one is palatable ;)

Ones palatable, the other's penetrable. ;)

Anyway...

Just looked, it seems that they've been removing some buildings from behind the Ghost Train. I doubt they're doing any additions for the park, just minimising the amount of work needed to make out into a Redrow lot. ;)
 

tks
