Last day- who is going?

We will be at Dreamland at around four o clock and hope to meet some of you there.

Hope some of you can make it, as we enjoy meeting up with you.


Otherwise, we'll see you next year when, hopefully, we'll have the proper brakeman back! :D :D :D

Hi Vince,

Yes, I'll definitely be going. I plan to arrive just before 11am for a late breakfast at Wetherspoons with Alan from Medway and friends.

Is 4pm the earliest you can make it by the way? (I'm not sure what time the park closes so that's why I plan to get down earlier).

I don't like to be the bearer of bad news. But have been to Dreamland tonight, the park closed at 19.30 and we were told it will not open tomorrow.

I do hope coasternutter's posting is not correct, especially as I still have a bag full of tokens to try and use up. The weather forecast is for great weather tomorrow too so it would be a huge lost opportunity to close the season otherwise.

Thanks for that, I will check out what is happening tomorrow.

I hope it's not true. Do you have any info as to why?

I have been unable to find out anything further, but will take a drive down at midday and see if the park is open, and will post here with any info

Hi all,
Not looking good if Dreamland is not open (Whats up with the man, Its a sunny day) The new plan is to meet at the Shell Grotto if you are going, If Dreamland not open.
