Diggerland
I'm going to Diggerland in October.

I've actually had a sleepless night, overcome by the sheer awesomeness of being able to actually drive a JCB and do some digging.

dont get too excited
i dont think they dont actualy let you drive the diggers any more, apparently health and safty thought it was a poor idea. that said, this information is from a friend. but he best summed it up as "there are 6 rides and one is a PS1. thats the most popular"

sad
This makes me very sad. We were away for aweekend very close to diggerland recently but unfortunately they were closed while were were there. It was a colossal disappointment. And now the don't even let you play with the diggers? Health and safety can suck on my sweaty arse hair.

My dad owns some land
and bought a mini JCB which I occasionally have a go on.

When I say he owns some land, I mean about an acre at most. Hardly enough to justify owning even the miniest of mini JCBs. I think he just likes driving about in it. Good for him.
