    Re the crowds. Pre pandemic, it was the second most popular attraction in the uk outside of London for Chinese visitors apparently. Only Windsor was ahead of it. 50 coach loads a day was seen as par for the course.
    For the last 16 years I’ve lived 20 mins away. I have been twice and indeed agree with the hell on earth analogy.
