Why compare it to international sites? Also why charge people for access to the visitor centre if most are not going to go there normally?

Yes but make the visitor centre cheaper, or even free. Then make the money from the cafe and souvenirs. _________________Do concentrate, 007... "You are gifted. Mine is bordering on seven seconds." https://www.dropbox.com/referrals/NTg5MzczNTkhttp://astore.amazon.co.uk/wwwx404couk-21

Well yeah. (8+) No argument from me. As far as I recall, the new visitor centre cost quite a bit of money, which would mean a bloody lot of tea and cake having to be sold to cover it. *laugh* Mark

in which case charge a small entry fee. While the Giants causeway may bring tourists to the area if it stings them while they are there all that will happen is that they leave telling everyone what a rip off the place is. That will make it even harder to break even.

It seems Best Beloved's MacBook Pro has a failed logic board/GPU. If we'd known about it, we could have had it fixed by Apple last year. As it is, we'll be taking a trip to Kingston tomorrow to see if it's worth getting it repaired.  _________________My Flickr | Snaptophobic BloggageHeather Kay: modelling details that matter.

Good luck with that. I hope that they manage to fix it. _________________Do concentrate, 007... "You are gifted. Mine is bordering on seven seconds." https://www.dropbox.com/referrals/NTg5MzczNTkhttp://astore.amazon.co.uk/wwwx404couk-21

And they seem like nice people, too. Plus, it'll be a nice day out, with potentially a meet-up with Si for a coffee and a natter.  _________________My Flickr | Snaptophobic BloggageHeather Kay: modelling details that matter.
