End of term theme park trips during heatwave.

[Heatwave2022]

Are any schools cancelling? I guess they wouldn’t obtain refunds but surely it’s unwise to take year groups of children to theme park this Mon/Tue?

My son is due to attend and am considering keeping him at home, ‘sick’.

Anyone else?

No message from DD’s school so I assume she is going to a theme park tomorrow. I’ll pack extra drinks, sun cream and cap. She’ll have a fab time.

We went to Alton Towers in 30° heat and it was bloody miserable in the queues, we ended up leaving just after lunch because it was so oppressive.

There's no way I'd go in the temperatures that are forecast, firstly because it will be horrible not being out in it and secondly I'd worry if the rides themselves were as safe being that hot for the first time ever.

Dds trip to Alton towers this Tuesday is postponed
