10 whole days of...?
Is one ride just as exciting as the rest? Are the 'most exciting' rides of (much) shorter duration that the less exciting ones? Do you get time to sit down on the most exciting ride? Are the side-shows free? How many rides all-together?
IF, you have £10 spare, one child and ten whole days of sunshine. How much fun can one expect?
Double the price it should be. Is my opinion.

couldn't find the poster so cannot answer tom's question, usually there is one day when all rides are a quid except dodgems.

Does not look very busy with nobody on the rides and only a few wandering round.

A very strange sign there, 'Happy Hour = 5 minutes' ? Do the fairytype chappies work from a different calendar from the Gregorian perchance

hardly any people there when i passed through half an hour ago, austerity demands cuts in leisure spending.
an afternoon at the fair for a family is quite expensive.
