I hope normal breakdowns arnt there controls not working!

Eclipse was one of the parks scaryest rides when it was windy tbh

I'm not sure why they dont, but thats why samurai does some random things like a random spin half way may well of been a windmill when its empty.

It would be inpratical to test it each time with dummy's in, if there's a power failure while its empty, it will be stuck and will be stuck until the problem is sorted.

It is. If theres a power failure the counter weight weighs more than the pods and needs 15 people to weigh more. If no power people are stuck 60 ft.

Running X with lights is totally different to runing samurai with less than 15 people as its for H&S, if theres a power failure there stuck at the top.

Erm Samurai needs at least 15 people to run, under no circumstances would the ride be sent with less than this unless it was engineers ect.

Are you trying to hide the fact you support charlton

Been stuck on samurai when its gone up and decided to do nothing a few times, stuck on x randomly but not for to long. Stealth turn around a few times aswell. Also in 2004 on CCR I seem to remember our train having engine troubles!

Went to Thorpe today for first trip of 2007, and to be honest I had a awesome day. I didn't bother going to the closed rides but when stealth's q consists of a set of empty steps do you blame me? All what was due to open opened and all seemed to be on time apart from Colossus (Yes that means stealth opened on time) Shut-downs on Colossus seemed to be the thing happening all day nothing else really (yes that means stealth didn't shut-down once)X q looks all nice and repained and looking forward to seeing the finished effort in March!Seemed to be a nice atmosphere in the park and on the rides for example at Colossus they were asking what people thought was better Thorpe or Alton, there was a big cheer for Thorpe but not half as big as the cheer when they asked about Thorpe or Chessington!The improvements around the park for example the glass house bar and the other dome changes look great, the thing which wasn't so good though are the things which would actually cost nothing to sort out but I'm sure in time we will see these little things ironed out.Ride Count (mostly guesses really)Stealth: 12Colossus: 3Vortex 3X:\ No Way Out: 2Didnt even ride all what was on offer but can say I had a great day, seemed to spend most of the day on the phone!

Just assuming because we are soon to see a roller-coaster there...

he made it, its fake.

Dont he just look very scared

I guess that wouldnt matter being a on ride photo =p

You do know you can press Contacts, and save your contacts then import them on your new one, right?

Yea the car park is s**te and at ?7 a go not worth it!

There is some standards for car parking, for example at reading the stadium holds 24 thousand people and the car park at the stadium holds just 1000 cars and thats strangely considered good, I dont get it either tbh.

Wembley's more than just a football stadium, while it has had its bad press its an amazing arena and will benefit sports in this country greatly. If things were to be turned around I'm sure many people would say why spend 12 million on a ride when it could be spent on much more.

In my lessons I seem to just talk to people on msn!

Reading rock Chelsea suck, I totally agree

I know but if it was on the right it would be far away!

There's mine, mess like usual!

Are you sure it wasnt open just no one wanted to ride it

But isnt hulk a drainable pool? :SAnd I doubt its thorpe, look at Colossus and the intamin goodness!

I thought B&M didnt like building on water anyway?
