Although the luxury rental apartment sector is booming in Miami-Dade, however it is much harder for average folks these days, to find a place to live. According to local brokers, as of May 2001, there was only a 2% vacancy rate for all kinds of apartments, as compared to May 2000, when the vacancy rate was 2.4%.

The Scat also featured at Morecambe opposite The Cyclone (before The Cyclone became Texas Tornado)..and The Scat also put an appearance in the seventies at Southport Pleasureland opposite…Yep..you guessed it..the sadly missed Cyclone!
Now then..Anyone remember The BobSlay (It was spelt wrong!!), Ben Hur or The Speed Boats?

Hi Gary,
I can remember the "Rock O Bob" or something like that and can definately remember the Ben Hur ride, which I have to say was one of the most pointless rides Huss have ever made!! I worked in that area of the park for a little while and can also remember the Flying Carpet and Orbiter. Heres one for you, can anyone remember the Mississipee Showboat attraction that was also based in that area? I thought that was quite good at the time.

| I was at the Edinburgh Dungeon this Summer, and wonder if anyone’s been both there AND to the London Dungeon and is able to offer a comparison of these. I was considering visiting the London Dungeon in one of next year’s trips to London.
I notice from the photo above that there’s a courtroom scene in London (which there was also in Edinburgh - I have to admit I didn’t like that one but and wouldnt’ have liked to have been one of the people picked upon by the judge. I don’t like paying money to be humiliated!) |
York I found to be quite chlostrophobic (sp ?), much darker and scarier … london is quite tame but good fun non the less and its definatley worth doing if you’ve not been before if simply to compare to the rest.
They have the court room scene at york too, the one in london was far better but was pretty humiliaiting for some people (one guy kept getting picked on and he didn’t seem too impressed)
The whole experience lasts about an hour and a half to Two hours …. and costs about twenty quid, however theres online discount and plenty of BOGOF vouchers available … so if you do go keep an eye out 
Have you ever fancied working at the Pleasurebeach?

Hi all
I’ve always fancied being stuck inside a 6ft fuzzy Beaver. Sure it might be sweaty and smelly, and maybe quite warm, but to see the smiles on children’s faces would be worth it.

London Eye by Day and Night

I too Love London. I was lucky to live there for almost a year in my early 20s, and love going back.
I was on the London Eye in the Summer, and really enjoyed it - I was amazed to see so many famous sights all in one go from an angle I’d never seen them before. If you’re interested in London in any way, then this is a must-do experience.
(The London Aquarium is also nearby and is a big disppointment compared to Blackpool Sea life centre (especially considering the price - which I can’t recall, but I did think at the time it was a lot for the experience).
