About 5 minutes away. from my bedroom window I can watch most of the fireworks and laser displays without getting cold or wet. About twenty years ago I had a caravan in the towers where the Theme hotel is now. I lived there all summer and went to work from there. It was fantastic. Now adays there are less cars going but more helicopters. Last time I went was about 6 years ago. I feel it has been spoilt. There is in the Theme park area the old building which was in |Living tv 'Most Haunted' this programme also took you down to the chained oak which is just outside the Theme Park .
