Easter Break Ideas?

BillHicksRIP · 8 Apr 2009 at 20:06

Have got family visiting this weekend and looking for things to keep 2 teenagers entertained while they're here. Was going to head for Alton Towers but the weather looks like it may not be great for Easter. Anyone got any recommendations of things to do, preferably indoors, in the North-West? Liverpool, Manchester area?

Much appreciated.

Chester Zoo? Went today was good fun. Even met Stoke Citys Glenn Whelan in the gift shop and had a photo with him

Alton Towers on easter weekend? Jesus you couldn't pay me to do that!

Yeah, I knew it'd be carnage but maybe the weather will do the honours for me. Chester Zoo's a good idea. Not been since I was a kid.

Drive to Snowdon, give them a rucksack full of food. Send them up while you have a few pints at the bottom. Wait till they get back. Get the missus to drive you home. Fall asleep in front of a movie on return home.

Job done.

If you're rich, what about Daytona go karting in Manchester?
