Guest HairyPlateEater Posted September 21, 2006 Report Share Posted September 21, 2006 Thought I'd test the water with this one as it should give enough people time to plan and should be a good family day out. West Midlands Safari Park hold an annual Bonfire Bonanza, this year on Saturday 4th November. Tickets bought in advance are Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest HairyPlateEater Posted September 21, 2006 Report Share Posted September 21, 2006 Thanks for the positive response guys! How many of us will that be so far then? Just so I can try and wangle some kind of discount. There will be 4 in my car. (3 paying - 1 under 4) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mumof4 Posted September 21, 2006 Report Share Posted September 21, 2006 1 adult, and 2 kids..(7 and 9)..subject to change, :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevie G Posted September 21, 2006 Report Share Posted September 21, 2006 Think this sounds ideal!! Just checked out the link to the safari park, think those of us with kids will enjoy this venue! (Us adults too I suppose! :D ) Did a quick check on the postcode of the safari park and found a travel inn roughly 11 miles away. Dudley (Kingswinford), thought those of us with a bit of a journey and kids would consider stopping over the night? I know it adds a few more pounds to the trip, but we'd rather stay instead of a long journey home. A family room, 2 adults and 2 kiddies is only Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Reaper Posted September 22, 2006 Report Share Posted September 22, 2006 2 Adults + 2 kids deffo. Could be another two adults depending on the age cut off for kids and wether or not the eldest pair want to come. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest HairyPlateEater Posted September 22, 2006 Report Share Posted September 22, 2006 Right, so far thats 24 of us (including all kids) so should be a great day and night! Haven't received any reply from WMSP so will give them a ring at some point today and ask about discounts etc. UPDATE: Just spoken to them and no further discounts can be had unless we're all tuning up on one coach or minibus. I tried arguing the 7 seater point, but they wouldn't have it lol Because the park isn't opening until 2pm, the ride wristbands are WMSP_Mids_Meet_4th_Nov.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest HairyPlateEater Posted September 23, 2006 Report Share Posted September 23, 2006 Wristbands are bought on the day from the ticket kiosks in the amusement park section. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smilge Posted September 25, 2006 Report Share Posted September 25, 2006 Just ordered the tickets for 2 adults and 3 kiddies to the Bonfire Extravaganzq at WMSP.....A thought for a future midlands meeting.... RAF Cosford near Telford/Wolves has a fantastic Aerospace museum....and wait for it......FREE ENTRANCE and good car parking. Here's the link: http://www.rafmuseum.org/cosford/index.cfm Well worth a visit (I take my studes here every week and they all enjoy it) :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest HairyPlateEater Posted September 27, 2006 Report Share Posted September 27, 2006 Tickets received this morning ..... See you all there. I think it might be easier for everyone if we all meet up in either a family pub or McD's nearby first as WMSP won't reserve us any parking spaces together. Be nice to arrive in convoy don't you think?? lol I'll try and research somethng, but if anyone else has any ideas, feel free to put them forward Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
