Does anybody remember the Cadbury hut which used to be situated in what is now the Cloud Cuckoo Land area? Does anybody have any pictures of it they could share?

Thanks Stern John but I was hoping for some interior shots. Am I right in recalling that there was an animatronic bird?

Totally agreed. It seems really really really odd they didn't do. It would have been impossible not to buy some kind of sweet if you were forced through a sweet shop after the ride. They would make heaps of cash!

There were plans to have a shop on as you exit CATCF but this was cut due to budget.
