That does sound like a rip off to me, I know that circuits are expensive places for food and drink, the van based vendors blame the circuits for ther high rental pricing, the circuit restaurants blame the fact they are only open for short periods, so they have to cover operating costs from a relatively small number of covers. I tend to take my own food and drink, don't buy programmes and I don't have kids. If I can swing it i make the wife pay, anyway ;)

The grammar police are coming for you!

 

"Come out with your hands up!".

 

:)

 

Should there be a . after a !?

 

I am concerned about your use of language Josh.

 

Yes, because the "!" was part of the quote. The "." after the quote signalled the end of the sentence.
