    Default Fake Lapland

    Not to sure wether this has reached any of you.

    However over in New Forest, Dorset UK. A new attraction for the winter called Lapland New Forest was adverstised as a excellent replica of the real lapland over here in finland.
    It was described to have a magical tunnel of light, a ice rink, huskies, reindeer, log cabins, a winter market and most of all santa and a present. All of this for just £25 a person.

    However in the first two days of it opening, there has been many complaints and the place has already come under inspection of false advertisment agencies in UK.


    The reasons are because :-
    • The place was in a muddy field, with very little crap fake snow lightly dusting the area.
    • The Log cabins was just some cheap sheds placed together.
    • The magical tunnel of light was just a few trees, with fairy lights attached to them.
    • The Ice rink was broken down.
    • There was only two huskies, and they looked poorly looked after and underfed. While there was only 1 reindeer.
    • The winter market was just a few burger vans.
    • The santa grotto, parents and kids were in lines for over 3hours in sub zero temperators. And once there they was furious to find out if they wanted to see santa they must pay a extra £10 to have a photo with him, and if the parents said no. All the kids do was wave through the window at him and walk away. They did then get a present however it was unwrapped and over half of the toys didnt work.
    • There was also reports of santa smoking outside the shed he was in, in front of children.
    All of this made the parents outraged, and soon Santa got punched by a angry dad! Quickly a fight broke out between the elf workers and the angry parents in the "gingerbread house". Where plenty of the elf workers wolked out angry after this confrontation. Also it was reported a very angry snowman worker walked out of the site still in full costume!! Meenwhile a worker in the main entrance warned people that they was about to be ripped off if they brought tickets, and one parent punched the bloke!!

    The site has now been closed down, and it has been revealed the people that brought tickets for the month long even will have a hard time getting refunds!!

    Im sorry but is this a joke or what?! lol
