We’ve been asked by a few people, why we don’t go to theme parks. As a family, we used to enjoy going to theme parks, even though I am a self-confessed wimp!

The last time we went to a theme park was in 2015, and we went to Alton Towers in Staffordshire. We had a bad experience there and as a result we have never returned to Alton Towers since then, or been to any other theme park.

We talk about the experience in the video below.
