Camelot

[ADRIAN C]

Can you give us some info please KK, on what sort rides they have :D

[Mr Orlando]

yeah and where is it

[ADRIAN C]

Its near Leyland :eek:

[Mr Orlando]

Is it??????

Where the hell is that

[ADRIAN C]

Near Preston :eek:

[Veronica]

Actually it's at Charnock Richard (a pretty place near Chorley, Lancs)

[Mr Orlando]

Thats for being presise the Veronica

[Veronica]

If you look up www.camelotthemepark.co.uk all will be explained.

From a purely personal point of view, I think it's a 'pleasant' day out for the kids, particularly if you live within a reasonable driving distance. Most of the rides are very tame with only a handful of what I call 'grown up' rides. Although this grown up would not go on them. There is a jousting contest held at various times which is entertaining (particularly for kids) and there are places to eat e.g, Fish and Chips, Hotdog Stand and a Wimpy (ugggh!). We have been several times and although the park is not very big, it's well spaced out and I have never felt stressed I can't remember the admission price but it isn't expensive and overall, in terms of child enjoyment, good value.

[ROBDUFFILL]

never been and have no intention of

[Veronica]

never been and have no intention of
:D Just as well, I don't think they let you in with a Brummie accent! :D

[ROBDUFFILL]

LOL :D Fair do's! :D

[Veronica]

:) Sorry Rob, I'm only kidding. I got Brummie confused with Scouse. :D

[sunnygirl]

That's an easy mistake to make!!!! :D

[ROBDUFFILL]

LOL, scouse are more high pitched :)

[Mr Orlando]

[ROBDUFFILL]

LOL :D were not that bad :p

[ADRIAN C]

Ive just heard they are going to bulldoze Camelot theme park to make way for houses, has anybody else heard anything :eek:

[Mr Orlando]

Nope not heard of it

[Veronica]

:( Oh dear, that's a shame. This is the first I've heard, where did you hear it Ady?

[ADRIAN C]

My wife text me and told me she got a text off her friend who lives in Leyland, she heard it on the local news news :D

[Mr Orlando]

Well theres nothing on their web site


camelotthemepark.co.uk

[Double k]

Yes it is in the first stages of planning thay wanna put 10,000 house's small shopping centre entertainment complex and a water park hopfully all done by 2010 :) and in my opinion its the best thing for it :cool:

[ADRIAN C]

Thanks for that KK, Im still gouing on the way back from Blackpool it may be our last chance :eek:

[Double k]

It may well be :D the show is good :rolleyes: and there is a water slide type thing thats good Oh and the rack thats an experiance :D

[Veronica]

:) And what about the dragon that goes choo choo chooing and puff puff puffing right round the park? My kids really like that and are upset that it will be closing. Oh and that pirate ship swing. It's not going to close for about 5 yrs though is it? Or have I been misinformed?

[lee_swire]

is the tower of terror still there? I went on that as a kid!!! :p

[ADRIAN C]

Went to Camelot yesterday, It aint that good, the kids enjoyed there day there, there wasent many people there, so we were just walking on the rides, but I can understand why it is shutting down, I wouldent go again :D

[Veronica]

:rolleyes: Oh great, we're going there tomorrow! Only cos it's free. I think when you go there off the back of Blackpool it probably is disappointing!! Still it's something to do!! :)

[sunnygirl]

Never mind Veronica. If you haven't been there before, it'll probably be okay - and if it's free at least no money lost!! :D

[Veronica]

Oh we go every year and so does Ady (on the way back from Blackpool) but for some reason it's gone down in his estimation this year :( Nevermind it is free for us this year so I'm not complaining and the kids will still enjoy the rides and the jousting and I have a thing for the Black Knight ;) :D

[sunnygirl]

That's cos he's the naughty one. It's the catholic in you Veronica - you'll always go for the naughty boy!!! :D

[Veronica]

[sunnygirl]

Well naughty boys are always more fun...... :D

[Veronica]
