It’s a ‘whip round’, not a ‘whip around’. You’re getting confused with a reach around I think.

Disguised permie - well, thats debatable of course.
Benefits cheat - Nah. As I always say, it was all legal. I never did go on holidays to Florida and claim. (I did end the one gig, go on hols to Florida, then come back and sign on but that, of course, is kosher!)

Since when are any shock stories in the DM factually correct?

Several years ago we went and the park was empty. My son who was 5 at the time made us go on it about 4 times in a row.

Its a pretty long ride too - something like 13 minutes..

Alas, I am still in contract. Otherwise I would.

And of course, I'd be on holidays in a caravan in cornwall honestly.
