An exit pass gives you access to every ride?- Opening Times
To clarify everything, Colossus and Rush were on the original list to open for February, Colossus opened it's queue line on opening day but never sent a train as it broke down immeadiately (it was open most other days though) and Rush didn't open until after Half Term.- Chessington Sporacle quiz
I got 19, but should have been 21 since you spelt Toadie's Crazy Cars wrong and it's called Griffin's Galleon, not Galleons.- Thorpe Park Sporcle Quiz
33, Suck on that. :(EDIT: 28 on the Alton Towers one, it was hard.- Thorpe Park Quiz

Maybe she had a cup of tea with her and decided to share this with the world.And even if you're replying to another post, you could have included that in your first post and then posted what you want to, instead of making two posts.- Opening Times
It was never organised for 2010, so how could it have been cancelled again?- Opening Times
For people who want to see the new 2010 opening times and be able to make sense of them, here they are on the Thorpe Park website.Don't ever click on this.What's odd is Fright Nights. There are no 10am - 8pm openings, only 10am - 10pm, with the mid-week Monday - Thursday dates only being 10am - 5pm. It seems that Fright Nights will not actually be on for these dates, only on Fridays, Saturday and Sundays from 8th October, and then all days throughout Half Term.- Opening Times
I've heard around that Annual Pass Day might be on a weekend before opening day.- Thorpe Park Trip Reports
I heard that, but in the Nemesis Inferno station.- Thorpe Park Trip Reports
Today was pretty good really.. It wasn't that busy at all, apart from Saw, as always. Colossus was sort of walk on at 3ish (even though Samurai had a 30 minute queue at the same time?). Rush on 1 swing, blah blah blah... Last Nemesis Inferno train of the year blah blah blah...I'd do a ridecount but I can't really be bothered, and since we went on pretty much everything it would be kinda long.- Chessington General Discussion
If you're talking about the Skips one, I think it's already ended.- Chessington Trip Reports
Well we went on most other rides more than him, and if you took both of our Vampire counts out, we'd have way more rides .And anyway, I'm not too keen on continously whoring one ride all day, we wanted to ride everything else as well. And we left at 6.15. Tbh ride counts are stupid anyway..- Chessington Trip Reports
I never saw Rattlesnake with more than 6 people in its queue line .Anyway yeah, it was my first Chessington trip all year.. and wow it was amazing. Most queues were all 0 minutes except for Fury which reached 10/15 minutes at some points, most of the day that was near walk on as well though. Hocus Pocus bewitched was 10 minutes most of the day, but at about 5 that was pretty much walk on as well. Black Forest Haunt was also only something like 5 minutes for most of the day. Morning rain was fun, made Vampire front row very interesting.. but mainly wet . Also made Rattlesnake fly round the track faster than I've ever seen it. I also enjoyed hearing the Saw theme music playing in Rattlesnake's station! :PSince this is the only trip for 2 years in which I can remember my ride count I might as well do one.. y'know to annoy people...Dragons Fury x7Vampire x6Rattlesnake x8 (Re-rides! )Tomb Blaster x3Dragon Falls x4Bubbleworks x3Runaway Train x2Rameses Revenge x1Black Buccaneer x1Peeking Height x2Safari Skyway x1Toadies' x1Hocus Pocus Bewitched x1Black Forest Haunt x1Yay.- Chessington Trip Reports
These dates are Sea Life/Zoo only days, so the actual theme park will not be open, just the Zoo and Sea Life Centre.Thanks for the Trip Report though, makes me look forward to my first visit there for so long tomorrow even more.- News Desk
Just because you had a 60+ reputation or something stupid .- Random

There was a lot of complaining last year about the over-crowding, so this year they're trying to control it. Fright Nights has still been a great success for them, it always is and that was never going to be a problem.- Thorpe Park Trip Reports
That was the point really, to stop the extreme over-crowding of last year.- Colossus
By the way..painting entire coasters takes quite a long time .- Are You Obsessed With THORPE PARK?
I wouldn't say I'm obsessed at all, but I do actually like listening to theme park audio. The best things about my visits to Thorpe are all mainly to do with the people I go with, so it is more the people than the park that I visit for. That said I do still enjoy going to Thorpe Park but maybe less than before I became a 'fanboy'.Being a fan person never means you enjoy visits more though, I guarantee you the majority of the General Public enjoy their visits to Thorpe Park much more than the Fankids do. - Opening Times
