    went years ago , before it burnt down , not been since

    uncle otto went on the original opening day ,,,,,, dressed up in his tweed suit and plus fours on his vincent ,,,,,,,,,,,

    battled through a foot of snow to get there , shame they cancelled it due to heavy snow and held it at a later date

    he did make the front page of the birmingham evening male though !!!! , looked like basil fawlty on a vincent ,,,,,,
