The Flamingo Land thread made me think about this.

Mine was at Windsor Safari Park when my oldest was nearly 3. We took her and my sister and brother in law who we were visiting in our car. Boiling hot day so they bought her lots of pop and crap food.

We drove round looking at loads of knackered looking animals and finally reached the lion enclosure. Got through the double gate and then she says "I need a pooh." We said you'll have to hang on, she says, "Now."

We had a potty in the boot and it was hatchback so we reached over and got it. She then filled it with shit and piss - to the top. By which time we were surrounded by lions and couldn't wind the window down. All the cars had stopped moving to gawp at the lions so our lass wouldn't let me gamble on having an arm torn off by chucking the potty out of the window. We were trapped in an increasingly hot car with a bucket of shit.

Then the traffic moved and we discovered that they had speed bumps in the fooking lion enclosure - not ideal with an over filled potty to balance. Very bad 15 minutes followed with stench and heat building while three adults keep blaming me for spillages.

Been "stuck" on at least 3 Roller Coasters. Me and Our Alice got stuck on Space Mountain in Orlando, we were next-one-down and got to the start point (it's pretty much a Mountain which you hurtle down inside, but dark). Took 40 minutes to get it going again but we were past the point where you could safely get out pointing in the general direction of "downhill", so we had to be the Guinea Pigs. Amazing how much scarier a ride is after a 40 minute wait angled at 30 degrees down...

Was this before you shed the extra girth?
