    The only disappointing part of the day was having to pay full price ($25) even though we arrived at 3. The place closes at 5 so that hardly seems fair.

    I think some more thought needs to go into the pricing structure.
    ktmboy will have something to say bout that???

    i don't think the sandpit can be blamed for you turning up late in the day.
    flat fee for all.

    No, I'm not blaming them for me turning up late in the day. That would be a ridiculous idea.

    Im just surprised that the $25 rate isn't adjusted as the day comes to a close.

    Many other industrys work on this premise. I suspect its because customers complained about it.

    The old adage, "The customer is always right" comes to mind.

    Anyway, I'm not trying to start an argument about this. Next time I'll just have to turn up early. Or, if it works out that I can't get their earlier, then I will save it for another time or place.

    yeah the bombing range is starting to become a no go zone now, the fun police are getting a bit nasty on it.

    I was thinking about checking that out.

    Police patrolling the area or something?

    I thought it was legal?
