Ooer Monkey Business

This afternoon I shall be attempting to Go Ape. I'm not sure that this is an entirely good idea, but at least if I fall off of anything I shall merely dangle like the unfortunate prey of some arachnid rather than bursting on the floor like an over-ripe fig.

Wow, will you look at that enthusiasm!

I did Go Ape once, and was rather hungover at the time. Despite that, it was great fun!

Sounds to me like it was our generation that liked adventure playgrounds and still is. Kids today with their xboxes and happy slaps... in my day... wouldn't stand for it... and still have change for the bus home.

I really wish to do this some time.

it was pretty fun! however, the only reason it took us 3 hours was queueing. reckon you could do it in a lot less. it's not terribly challenging! booking a slot in the morning might cut down your queueing time so that you can do all the permutations of courses that have multiple crossing options.

car parking also costs a bit at the Moors Valley one, about £6 I think
