Christmas Carnivals 2008/2009

Post by Top Gunner14 »

Geez, hasn't this year flown by. But Xmas time is closing in and as always the operators finish up their hire jobs or show runs and get to their coastal destinations to entertain everyone during the Xmas holidays. I'll have some info on some later on. Looking forward to them.

Cheers
