A photo a day from the famous East Midlands city, its surroundings, and wherever the photographic journey takes me.

There's Gold In That There Sand
Here's the price list for the rides and stalls at the Nottingham Riviera. As you can work out, it's not cheap, especially if you have a couple of rugrats who will want to go on everything.
The attraction was heaving today as it was a lovely sunny day, so the owners will be raking the money in. Especially as you can't bring your own food; you have to eat and drink what's on offer. And of course these concessions are run by the owners too.

At least you still have a choice unlike the rip off flat fee now for the Pleasure Beach Blackpool. Hope this does generate a healthy return for the city.
ReplyDeleteSurely you're not suggesting that the city's motivation in setting up the Nottingham Riviera as a way to support families who couldn't afford a proper holiday because of the recession, is actually a thinly veiled plan to get them to spend just as much money... but in Nottingham rather than in Skegness or Mablethorpe?
ReplyDeleteBy the way G-M, I hope this was an official photograph that you bought from the official photographer and not one that you had the audacity to take yourself?
ReplyDeleteWhat a fascinating idea. Thank goodness the sun shone.
ReplyDeleteJust to say, thanks for your comment the other day on MC and discussion on our Lumix. I had forgotten to do what you suggested - the camera automatically taking pic after pic. I just kept clicking manually. Same result I suppose as the camera was on a tripod and each shot took two seconds but I could have saved myself the bother, couldn't I? Not that it was a bother...
Give me Skeggy any day against Notts by the sea.lol.
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend my friend.
