Irn Bru Carnival at SECC

[geordieminx]

Has anyone been?

We are thinking of taking ds(20mo) as a treat over the holidays.

I know it will be full of neds but he really likes wee rides at the moment, and all the lights and buttons of "machines".

Is there much for him? Its gonna cost £20 for us all to get in, which wont be too bad, as that will be 20 "rides" as long as there is stuff for him?

Anyone?

TIA

oh grow up and leave proper contentious posts to the bigger clever girls

Sorry What?

sorry scottish mummy, am i missing something?

i haven't been but if i were you i would save my money as he is too young. take him somewhere free like the transport museum

full of neds!enough with the stereotyping.maybe some families just like you too..

I was meaning full of teenage lads that normally hang around fairs/M&D's etc, as lets be honest, it more aimed at teenagers.

I was just wanting to know whether there would be much for my son, thats all.

I've been on MN for nearly 3 years and had someone be so rude to me for asking such an innocent question.

Kristingle - we've done the transport museum twice in the last month , but thanks for replying.

geordieminx thanks for clarifying.enjoy day.ps length of time posting irrespective.you don't get special dispensation after X years

IMHO its a great day out.Ok at 20 mo ,may not get full benfit BUT its a traditonal Glasgow Xmas day out ( neds and all !!!)

I wasnt asking for dispensation, I was merely stating that in 3 years I have never come across someone as rude and aggressive as you, for IMO absolutely no reason what so ever.

We might give it a try if the weather is rubbish over the next week or 2.

really?i am the rudest MN in 3years?i think not

it is full of neds, don't doubt it

but I'd choose them over charming ScottishMummy any day

ssd chuck in in a few comments about how long you have been MN and how rude i am.score settled

sm you've been away too long... groups of sportily-dressed young lads now call themselves neds. true story.

oh btw, i'd go to the carousel etc at george square in preference.

Looks good, but Tom (2.8) won't even go on the kiddie rides outside the supermarket!

is it open on Jan 1st?

Yep.

I think we are going to go with DD1 (4.5) and DD2 (2)because DD1 is desperate to go and loves the rides.

And yes I'm sure there will be neds aplenty too but isn't thatalso part of Glasgow tradition.

Was also concerned it might be full of pissed teenagers but it seems all of Glasgow is there - so it'll be fine.

Think Scottishmummy could probably do with a visit too.

Will see y'all there then.

I'll be the one in the fitba top, trackie bottoms tucked into my socks, burberry pram and a bottle of buckie in my hand

We went on NYE, but got there about 12.30, so it was quite quiet. There was a fair few rides for ds, but tbh he was just as happy running about, pressing the buttons on the machines!!

By the time we left about 4.00 it was very busy.

omg some people are so rude !!!
