Quotes

"It's a little frustrating, but I think in the long run ... we've got a lot of potential" Weeks said
Corbett added: "The board remains confident in the continued delivery of this strategy and the company’s outlook and growth prospects."
"Madame Tussauds Tokyo is the fourth Madame Tussauds to open in the region and we plan for two more in China."
"Demand for WiFi is constantly increasing. This is especially true of venues such as theme parks and retail outlets where mobile users want to share their experiences and interact with friends as they go about their day. Following a successful roll-out at Alton Towers Resort, we’re delighted to be bringing our service to THORPE PARK. WiFi will of course benefit Park visitors but it will also be a useful tool for on-site retail and food venues. In an age where mobile is so key to everyday life, THORPE PARK has placed WiFi at the forefront of its offering."
