Ha ha ha, what a bunch of cunts. The fat bastards at 45sec should have been one of the attractions. I hope none of these idiots get one penny back.

I refuse to believe that trading standards were even an issue when this was released to the public.

The words 'standard' and 'lapland' shouldn't even be in the same sentence.

£30 can get you into Alton Towers or Thorpe Park. Now compare Alton Towers and Thorpe Park with this craphole. At least AT and TP weren't cheap, tacky and a complete rip-off >=(

Trading standards are useless! If they haven't got the power to shut these awful misleading places down then WTF do they even exist?! Trading standards? Trading useless more like. Those dogs sounded very distressed I hope they are okay. I bet nothing happens to these bastards thats y things like this happen cos they can get away with them - sling 'em in jail!!

I have to say I agree. Most people don't read the disclaimers (the 'small print') which was on thr website and said the pictures are for show only and don't represent the actual event.

However, this doesn't give anyone the right to scam people, with or without chilren, and falsly advertise, which is a crime.

One good thing might be that people will be more careful on where they spend their money...the bad thing is they loose trust which can be disasterous for honest trades people.

I thought we were in the middle of a credit crunch. I am cannot believe people fell for this pile of Huskie Poo. Don't you guys ever check anything through before parting with your hard earned cash. Even after the story broke we had people dragging their kids for miles and then complaining. The operators knew exactly what they were doing, always somebody willing to hand over hard earned cash

I'm still pissing myself at this story. What do these wankers expect for £30 a head? a christmas buffet with unlimited booze as well? or maybe 3D holographs of Santa and the Narnia snow queen dancing with a virtual Rudolph? I can't wait for the movie release of 'Carry on Crapland', starring the chuckle brothers. Certain members of parliament would pay more then £30 to fight with someone dressed as an elf, believe me. Even Delboy and Rodney Trotter couldn't have done it funnier then this.
