How much 'cash' is it then? (djedfre's comment) I never even thought before about how much it would cost to ride on it. Very interesting to see the view from it, it does'nt look quite as high as I imagined it would.

@lisa v: £10 so not so bad, it doesn't look that high in this shot because this is near the bottom, cheers lisa

This looks like a fun ride! The wide angle coverage heightens the scale, not to mention the sense of adventure! :)
