mercurialworld Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 Quote Billy Coull, director of the House of Illuminati organization that put on the Willy Wonka-inspired event in Glasgow, Scotland, last month claims he's received "hundreds and hundreds" of hate messages following the disaster. "My life is ruined," he explained in the Channel 5 special Wonka: The Scandal That Rocked Britainon March 16. "I have lost my friends. I've lost the love of my life. I was made out to be the face of all evil. And genuinely, that's really not the case." Billy went on to describe the mishaps—including booking too large a venue and projection equipment that was never delivered—that led to the event's failure. "I was gutted," he continued. "But I believed that we could push on." And Billy, who described the way he reacted to the event's early shutdown—during which he snapped at upset customers—as the "worst versions" of himself. He added, "The last thing I wanted to see was children to be upset."

While I'm here, can you guys change the colour for the prefix selection while making a post? It's nearly impossible to see on dark mode Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redstreak Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 The only reason you'd push through after seeing the state of the event is because you were hoping to take as much as you could and leave as quickly, I don't have much sympathy on that one 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
