From what I've been told, every time an empty carriage was circulated round the track, a number of manual checks had to be carried out and ticked off. The person who was meant to be doing these checks ticked off that they had done them, when in fact they hadn't done anything of the sort. This was a disaster waiting to happen because of the sheer lack of vigilance on how staff were performing. The responsibility starts with the lazy ride operator right up to Nick Varney. They are all culpritable.

I think the ride should perhaps open next spring but not before.
