    It was a joke. Just ignore it if you don't like it. Life is too short to let trivia get you down.

    Have you sent a selection of these to Steve Edge at www.wsr.org.uk ?

    I am sure he would publish them.

    What does a ride on the Minehead wheel cost? How many spins do you get?

    Emailed pictures, fingers crossed.

    Wheel is Adults £5

    Brief pause at top on first spin. And you get 3 goes around. Costly but something different and kids enjoyed it.

    What about some kind of tie in - either combined train & Ferris Wheel Ticket or a discount for WSR Ticket Holders

    And your alternative innovative suggestion on how to bring folks to Minehead this summer (in particular to replace the August 'Air Day') would be?

    Quite right.

    I meant 'Moanhead', of course. :)

    You mean like all the people who are complaining about it in Minehead before even it came into use.
