Even if they have it running for 8 hours a day it's still not going to make £35,000. So surely that's not the cost of bringing it over - no one would be that mad!

I was being sarcastic, I doubt even Britcliffe would be stupid enough to spend £35,000 on a ride but using your figures and Lindsey's observations I'm sure Britcliffe and the others who go to the "Mayors party" could easily get through the remaining £20,000 in free meals and drinks.
