Dismaland – Banksy’s new theme park project – live events, gallery space and morosely uplifting amusement for all the family – open for the next five weeks at the Tropicana – a former leisure centre (closed since 2000) on the Weston-super-Mare seafront.

Touche!

Fixing up old rides? ….I can’t help but think of Mani.
