As a child I used to be obsessed with "front-end loaders" and "backhoes". I used to love going out to the sandbox to play with my toy construction machines. As a child there was nothing more gratifying than the toy they came out with that dug holes as if you were sitting in a backhoe. So when I was perusing the webbernet and I came across this website for a theme park that included these things, I must say, my interest was sparked. I mean, come on, what could be more fun than a day at Digerrland? Just look at old Patsy to the left here... there's a chap who's happy to be at Diggerland... in case you're wondering, the only pictures on this site seem to be from one family's trip to the theme park, and, no he did not look like this in the rest of the pictures, so I have no reason to believe he is mentally disabled in any way. How dare you even think that is why I posted this picture! I just think the kid is really excited, and that's just funny. If you missed it, Diggerland is a heavy machinery theme park located in the UK.

Anyways, Diggerland has some awesome attractions. They offer "Digger Mystery Rides", fun rides such as Mini Diggers and Dippy Ducks, and even a Sky Shuttle! I can only imagine what a "Digger Mystery Ride" entails... They even have some "adult events". Things like JCB and Dumper racing! Sounds like just the place for Diggers (Diggerland fans) from all over the UK to go to have a good time! They also offer on park job training for those people who are training to become Diggers.

So, the next time you're in the UK, please check out this park with its four easy to reach locations: Devon, Durham, Kent, and Yorkshire. And please, don't forget to pose in the gift shop like Patsy.
