Yup and the bit at the end that says "The Value of FRIAT gets worse and worse every year - we have lost this and lost that and RIAT are going to have to do something about it or I won't book the Mach 3 package that I have already booked for next year.
Ok, I'm biting.
People could believe your BS or, people could read the reviews - reviews based on the personal experience that year of the author.
In 2014 the packages future financial viability was queried in light of the increasing cost of a ticket and (spiralling out of control) local accommodation costs - at no time did the review state the package had got worse.
The 2015 review did criticise the package due to the enclosure being closed for the first time early on a Thursday to allow for display validations - quite validly criticising the cost of the package when 25% of flying on one day was missed.
The 2016 review criticised the grandstand - it did not criticise the package - the opposite in fact, it praised a number of the new items bought in that year. At no time was the value even called in to question.
At no time do any of the reviews claim or end with a statement that DBH need to "do something about it" or "I won't book but have already booked".
Am I reviewing this year's show? No I'm not - a combination of an existing commitment to author the Flying Legends review and for other reasons which will become clear later this year. You'll just have to wait and see who is.

Andy! I live near the base. I really don't care - it is a joke - missed obviously. I know several FRIATer's, I met up with one last year and he said the Grandstand is crap I won't be doing it again next year. I said you will, you've already renewed, you told me. You know that full well. Smile Andy - I don't stay at Totterdown (another joke BTW)
