  5. CWOA & Zoo & Nandos & Driving around Kingston one way system 5 times & Jack Danns house.Cwoa was nice and quiet, rameses and bubbles advertised as closed, rameses did open abit later on though!Did like everything quite quickly really, everything was running pretty well to which was nice to see after previous visit! Ride Count:Fury: 2Rattlesnake: 2Vampire: 1 or 2Tomb Blaster: 2Peeking Heights: 1Runaway Train: 2Skyway: 1Managed to avoid the carousel with evil teacup and jack cos that just hurts!Nandos with mark and jack was nice and scrummy as usual:P Not much more to say!Kingston one way system is horrible and I never want to drive around it again, jack needs to tell me when I'm turning right before its to late, we must of drove (very badly) around it god knows how many times, what a waste of petrol! Jacks house was fun and funny Msn talking to randomers who thought we were drunk, and looking at certain bits of history were very interesting indeed. Also had abit of fun on your number one flash video site! Jack gave me a henery ball for my car which now will live there for fun to be had on future car journeys! All in all was a very good day woo

    Rush

    It had a fair few problems on Saturday and was going out of sync a fair bit so I'm not surprised its on one swing. Hopefully when it gets quieter they can work on it a bit and sort it out.

  14. Things seemd gooder tooday than that, when I got there all rides open apart from slammer and rush (WOO 2005 moment!) then they opened then it hailed so hard it hurt to walk in so it all closed untill it stoped, after that I didit see anything go down apart from rush a few times.

  16. Alton Towers - Friday 4th April!Well I took my first trip to alton towers of the season with mike and ian last friday and all I can say is wow.Whilst I like Thorpe Park and Chessington, Alton towers is a whole league above them both in almost every single way.Ill start with the negatives and get them out the way:Geting into the park and trying to buy an annual pass was a total nightmare, the staff we asked seemed confused that I actually had to buy an annual pass and that I didnt actually have one, once we eventually got that through to them we were sent to a small crowded office with a desk at the end of it with one member of staff on it.. this was going to be a long wait!Being the groups biggest/most popular park you would expect them to atleast be on par with Thorpe's and Chessingtons admissions but this wasnt the case, it took ages because this one poor woman had to deal with god knows how many annual pass's at the same time whilst speaking to customers on the phone, what all that was about I dont know, once she was dealing with us it was all ok, although one small thing was Ian needed a reprint, when he said that she looked like he was talking in some foreign language, then informing him he can only get this done at Thorpe Park.. great thats 200 miles away. Eventually after talking to somone else and taking his details he was issued with a ticket and that was sorted.Once we got in the park we headed straight to air, it had about a 10 min q which was more than reasonable, it was great to hear the origianl air theme back, its nice that they have paid up the royaltys to keep the decent music and learning from mistakes, staff were great, kind but very efficient at there jobs and our train was loaded in no time and had a great ride on air. After that its mostly abit of a mish mash so erm yea ill comment on little bits!Muteny bay is just amazing! This is somthing we very badly lack down here, the theming is absoloutly top notch both around the area and the rides them selves and Battle Galleons has to be one of the best most fun rides ive ever been on! It was brilliant, disppite it being blodey freezing and it even breaking my phone, couldnt resist just going back for more!One thing which isnt so great is the targets around the ride which seem to do nothing, I'm not sure if there targets to just have somthing to aim at (If so dont bother, its much more fun aiming at people!) or if they just are not finished yet, only time will tell!Pictures Removed Due To Sizes exceeding board rulesI hate this ride, I will have a fear of ducks for ever after entering that tunnel!In conclusion Alton Towers is amazing, whilst our parks are good, alton towers really shows how things should be done.If What merlin have done for the towers this year is a sign of whats to come to Thorpe Park and Chessington I very much look forward to it.
