Weetabix (http://austin-dern.livejournal.com/801137.html)! Yes! (Although, I'll admit to not being much of a cereal sort anyway - or, indeed, breakfasts. Though I did always love going on the international swim meets, where my brother competed, with the German breads fresh in the morning, and potato pancakes at the events =:9)
Sadly, yes - weather is extra in the UK, and only purchasable prior to entry, although you may be able to reclaim VAT upon departure.
The Derby Racer does sound quite uncommonly spiffy. Could there be hope of more of such? I suppose it's a bit like pinball tables - expensive and fiddly to maintain, but not really replicable, although I'll admit that Zen Pinball is a lot of fun. ^_^;
A Muppet Show themed (if only literally) carousel? How neat! And so fitting. ^_^
the beers at the American restaurant were Fosters, Heineken, and Guinness. So, yeah, they did their research.
Sadly so. =:) You were spared themed Real American actors, though.
(I've not yet quite worked out how, in the UK, beers like Stella Artois and Guinness rank amongst the most expensive you'll find in any pub, versus the local superbly crafted ales, produced in virtually insignificant quantities, yet selling for maybe £1 less. Aren't "economies of scale" meant to work the other way around?)
