The Ha Ha Ha – Valentines Park

Just seen this place called The Ha Ha Ha in Valentines Park. The weather is too good in London today and for now I will go for walk with my son, but will find out more about this Ha Ha Ha! The park is quite big and to think I did not discover this natural beauty all these years.

London is beautful when the weather is this good. People do enjoy themselves and who can blame them after one of the coldest winters in history. But what’s wrong with the big Swan chassing ducklings?? Unfortunate I didn’t take video camera with me, I could have captured it on video. But it was a lovely day in the park with my son.

Britain’s Lapland a ‘big joke’

Hundreds of visitors have called Britain’s Lapland ‘a joke’ after it apparently failed to live up to its advertisement.

The website for Lapland New Forest at Matchams Leisure Park in Dorset, showed pictures of snowy scenes and promised real log cabins, husky dogs and other animals, as well as a “bustling” Christmas market.

But some visitors claimed they experienced “disorganised chaos” and complained that once they paid £25 to get inside the park, it was “tacky” with “real log cabins” actually garden sheds and the nativity scene a billboard poster that could only been seen across an expanse of mud.

An ice rink was also closed for repairs while the “magical tunnel of light” turned out to be a few lights hung up on a line of trees.

Organiser Henry Mears said: “We don’t believe we ripped anyone off.” He blamed “a few groups of professional troublemakers” for the allegations over the attraction which opened on Friday.

He said: “Like all people they like to get into queues and just generate a bit of aggravation. What is not here that we haven’t advertised?” he added.

Dorset County Council’s trading standards team said it planned to investigate after receiving more than 50 complaints. -ITN

Superb views from Newlands Corner

Throughout Surrey there are many beautiful open spaces that people can visit and enjoy the beautiful wildlife. Over the weekend I went to Newlands Corner in Guilford. The views that get from Newlands Corner are just beautiful, there is an open downland covered with wildflowers and a vast woodland. Newlands Corner and the nearby areas of St Matha’s Hill and Silent Pool provide some of the most beautiful scenery and are some of the popular areas in Surrey.

There is a visitors centre were you can get maps, books and leaflets with very useful about the countryside and other areas managed by Surrey Wildlife Trust.

The famous novelist Agatha Christie is said to have stage her disappearance from the area of the Newlands Corner in 1926 causing a huge search of the Albury downs.

There are Self-Guided Circular Trails: The Deer Trail which takes about 45 minutes, Butterfly Trail takes about 1 hour and there are also other Trail routes to choose from. Maps are available to guide you through the trail routes.

There is a snack bar just in case you want a cup of tea, coffee and other refreshments. The facilities are also suitable for wheelchair users.
