I live in nottinghamshire (a village not far from mansfield) and just wondered if anyone around this way or not that far away fancied arranging a meet up somewhere?

lol misscutandstick Yep - you and DH should be free, special needs £7.50, normal addmission £8.50. I would have been peeved if we'd have all paid full price

Thanks for the info re: White Post Jenny, thats somewhere else to add to the list of places to go

ohh jenny, didnt realise white post do offers too - always paid full . As a family we quite like it there, its about 45 mins away for us.

Have you been to the 'butterfly house' - thats quite nice too, just had loads of money spent on it. we got year passes so its just a pound each to visit.... actually just thinking, didnt ask about special rates there either GGRRRR!

i havent been to the butterfly house for about 18 months i think it is, so i guess thats before any changes? At white post just need to take dla letter, but in all honesty all the times weve been they dont read it that much so i bet anyone could get in even with a refusal letter!! we go there loads its only about 5 mins from me
phoenix that would be great if you need any help finding anywhere or want me to go have a look at anywhere to see how escape-proof it is let me know!!

misscutandstick, have you decided whether to brave the bank holiday crowds?

We eventually decided on WHitepost as it was absolutely chucking it down and its got more places in shelter - surprisingly enough it was empty! .

It was lovely actually, more relaxed than i anticipated (under the circumstances!). and we got in quite cheap too! bargain!!! 2 free carers, one under 2 (well hes small and they dont check anyway! ) and just paid for a few kids!

chat later - DH wants comp! XXX
