Chessington Staff
Do you think theres anything laking with the staff at Chessington? Do you prefer them to Thorpes, or do you think they need improving?Youll be with them a lot of the time in your day at Chessie, so what do you think about them?

Scorpion Express
Another Mack powered ride, and this is a great one! Its located in Mexicana sitting near the Rattlesnake, and personally I think its on of Chessingtons most enjoyable rides. Its like the Flying Fish, but with the theme of RMT, its really a completely different ride! (Now I'm starting to do random blabble )Discussion on one of Chessingtons better rides here!

I like Hotels which dont make you pay for Internet access, you just pay it in the final bill, it doesnt make you keep any money or lose any money, but its just easier I think. But yeah apart from that randomness, I think Alton Towers is kool. Yeah kool. Like Fantastically kool. More Alton tomorrow too! *If you hadnt have guessed, I went to alton today and I'm going again tomorrow for closing day*

Rita
We need some more alton topics, so here another one!Well when Rita was announced it got alton fanboys pretty excited. But since its opened, its recieved mixed reviews. Its like Marmite, you either Love it or you hate it . Rita has been criticised for its long queues followed by short ride times, but some people find it a great ride full of airtime and great turns.Launching from 0 - 60 mph in 2.4 seconds, it takes you on a journey through UG Land, with twists and turns everywhere, and 3 airtime hills in the center of the ride. Thunder Rock Rally Radio plays around the ride, which some people have critcised also for not fitting in with the UG Lands prehistoric theme, and the whole ride idea is not based around this either.GO GO GO....

Thorpe Park Trip Reports
Stealths countdown was broken on Friday, but I s'pose when things brake they can be fixed. Staff were excellent on Friday, except for the ones on the fish but I wont get into that .The Colossus and Stealth staff were actually amazing on Friday, fastest dispatch times ive ever seen on a rollercoaster, just like seb said. They seemed very enthusiastic in getting trains through the station very quickly, which I really liked.Pics soon, I promise!
