    What would be the point though? Prof Burp's Bubbleworks has sung its song, and won't be returning and at this stage I would not want it to. The park needs something fresh and new- a complete set gutting and redesign.You can try but all they will say is that they spent a generous amount of money this season to bring back the lights in the finale scene along with other "improvements".
  2. Sheepie replied to Phill's topic in Nonsense
    That's my point though... I'd rather be out working than at school. It was a terrible part of my life I wish to forget. It gets better with age though.

    She has a 5 album contract. However, the label managed to find a clause so that My December didn't count towards that number. Not many people know. but she had to fight and fight to get that album released, the label didn't like it because it wasn't "commercial" enough. So they promoted the first single and then gave up on the album, on which Kelly co-wrote or wrote everything on and was received very well by respected critics.So basically, because she got to release My December, she has the next album to do after this one (which has to be a proper studio one and not a live/ greatest hits thing) and then she can decide what she wants to do. I can't see her staying with RCA, I'd like to see her move to something like Interscope.

    ^ Finally RCA has taken the song down, though there are now loads of people out there with it. I read online that the version above isn't totally finished in terms of mixing (music drowned out vocals in points).She has spent a large amount of her money hiring lawyers trying to find loopholes in her contract James, sadly they've pretty much cornered her and there's no way for her to be released from it unless she pays the record company millions of dollars. It's also sad because the label has sat on her album for all of this time (it's been finished since February), so in all honesty, I'm not surprised people are starting to leak songs out of pure frustration and desire for new music from her.

    I'd take work over school. Haha.

    *Sigh*Kelly Clarkson's single has fully leaked. RELEASE THE GOD DAMN ALBUM RCA. Bunch of idiots that run that place. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bTy0mvmuFdQ For those wondering, the song is written as a "love song" but the song is Kelly's views towards her Record Label. Cheeky.
  7. I posted this recently in park music. Here you go buddy. Welcome back.

    I would just like to take a moment to say that some of you are being a bit too hard on some of our newer members. I'd like you to think back to the first time you joined a forum and how you felt. I've seen some members on here grow and remember how people perceived them when they were first starting out on the forums.Just because someone is young, has a lot to learn and has some possibly naive views on things, this does not make them a troll. It is our job to educate them and include them in discussion so they can develop their own personal identity just as others on here have had the chance to do so.
  9. I enjoyed reading your trip report- even if I do disagree with the majority of your opinions! A good read and glad to hear you had such an awesome time.Although, did you not do Temple Del Feugo? It's a fantastic little show. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iy8IT7dBRcQ
  10. Type 1's being the bigger attractions that require the longest training hours. Therefore they have invested a lot of time and money into that staff member.
  11. AHAHA! That's brilliant! Love it.
  12. Personal insults towards other members is not acceptable.Though Kevvy please could you write in ordinary prose in the future? No need to write like a diologue.
  13. Sheepie replied to Marc's topic in The Real World
    For the first time in a very long time, I'm feeling absolutely fantastic. I've just got myself a part in Broadditch Hauntfest 2011. I'm so excited! They're a family- run attraction and were nominated for a Screamie but narrowly missed out. Their attraction "Spooky Castle" was Michael Bolton's favourite maze last year.I'm gonna see if I can help out with the production side over the coming weeks. I'm over the moon though. What a boost that was so badly needed.
  14. Great news Dan. I enjoyed reading their reply and appreciated the time and effort it took Nick. Whilst personally I feel as though it's just a history of the company rather than addressing any points in reality, I do agree on the principal that taking to time to reply is a very promising sign and admirable. I just hope Alton can improve and Merlin can provide them with the tools to do so.Other news- groupon.co.uk are offering 50% off at the Towers at the moment. That's a great deal and comes in handy if you're in an odd numbered group! That's £20.40 for Adults.
  15. This is cool. A 360 degree view video of Saw. You drag your mouse around the screen to the direction you want to view. It kept me amused for 10 minutes anyway!
  16. Sheepie replied to Phill's topic in General Discussion
    Whilst there may be no direct source, it's pretty well known that Samurai got sent back to Mondial (I think it was during the 2008/2009 closed season?) to get a complete refurb.Although if I remember Holly this was around the time you took a break from the forums so you may not have been aware of it at the time.
  17. Sheepie replied to Garyy's topic in The Past
    Agreed with Holly, please take discussion to PM or elsewhere and get back to Loggers discussion. I appreciate your views Smiffy, though please post any feedback you may have in our Expectations thread or our Forum Feedback thread.Although may I say, this situation was so two weeks ago. We have listened to our member's views and have made changes, now please, back to Loggers discussion.

    So we're holding our own "freestyle playlist" in chat right now. Come and join in if you want. It's pretty fun. You just find a song you want the Chat Room to play on Youtube and you post the link and we all listen.I've made it sound proper lame we're all enjoying it! Sort of.
  19. A great Trip Report once again Jack. It really sounds as though you enjoyed your day. I think the difference between your two reports reflect this. Some fantastic photos as well. I'm very jealous. ;)I'm looking forward to the July meet now. You should join us Jack!
  20. Where abouts are you coming from Chris? As in which station of origin? The reason I ask this is because it's sometimes easier to get your tickets from where you live.National Rail will answer most of your questions if you enter your journey details there.With the Shuttle bus tickets, you literally buy them on the bus. ;)Also, just a quick tip, I noticed the time of your original post. If you use the search feature (for example, "travel") then you may find an answer in a shorter amount of time, rather than wait for someone to respond to your post. I just thought' I'd mention it because of the urgency you wanted your question answered.
  21. Sheepie replied to Harry's topic in General Discussion
    I think it just depends on the individual. I know enthusiasts that won't queue more than 30 minutes for anything, yet I also know some that don't mind queueing anything within reason. The same for non-enthusiasts.I know my auntie and uncle felt the same with that Tidal queue- it felt as though the ride was just the climax of the experience and they were left feeling very impressed with the ride, they preferred it to Colossus.
  22. Sheepie replied to Benin's topic in Stuff
    Do I smell another epic Pixar Movie on the horizon? Hmm I hope so.
  23. X

    Sheepie replied to Garyy's topic in The Past
    Interesting! I've yet to ride it but I'll let you know what I think when I do.
  24. Oh yes you're right about X. Not sure about Zodiac though.
  25. That is hawt stuff! Haha! Love it!
