    I take my kids every year and didn't bother to check further details once the day was announced. We arrived just after one to deflated bouncy castles and emptiness. Why the 1PM finish??

    What a shame SD. In fairness to the Club it was advertised as being on between 10am and 1pm.

    You would have thought the Club might have posted a message on the official site
    reminding fans that this year unlike those in the recent past the event would end at 1pm.

    I would imagine there could have been others who like your kids and yourself ended up being disappointed.

    I presume it's because it fizzles out around that time anyway. I arrived at 1pm last year as I'd arranged to meet my dad then but there was literally nothing happening at all and around 20 people stood about (in fairness it was raining).
