Yorkshire Wildlife Park So Far, So Good?

It has now been just over 18 months since Yorkshire Wildlife Park opened its
doors to the public (April 2009) and I remember the original post about YWP starting up, some people wished them the best of luck and others said it would never succeed.

I just wondered what people now think of the park and everything that has gone on in the last 18 months?
 
Nice (sometimes simple, alway effective) enclosures all round;
Lion enclosure especially well done (arguably best looking in the country);
Great Lemur walk-through (again, up there with the very best);
Good labelling;
Good guidebook;
Fantastic restaurant (setting & food);
Friendly, chatty staff;
Good children's facilities (the slides are great);
Attention to detail is impressive (e.g. provision of toilets where they're needed);
Only slight frustration is I impatiently want more animals quicker.

In summary, I've never seen a place do (pretty much) everything so right, so quickly, from the start. I look forward to seeing its future development.
