^ I can understand that actually. When anyone is snogging someone's face off infront of me it kinda makes me feel awkward.A simple kiss, hugs, and holding of hands is cool, but when it gets pretty graphic- like snogging with toungues ect- that's not so cute or pretty.And I'd just like to say, I'm referring to mainly queuelines, really busy public places and the like. =]

It really frustrates me when ride designers use that same opening sequence for B&M rides, which is the usual: vertical loop, dive loop, zero G roll, cobra roll, and then Mid-course breaks.Yes it works, and is a great sequence, but I'd much rather see more interesting layouts, rather than the bog- standard Anyways, Sea World is an awesome park. I didn't really appreciate it when I was younger (9) as I was absolutey coaster mad, and if it didn't have any big rides it was crap in my books.But now I'm older and can apreciate the things like shows, and generally good entertainment, it makes me realize that Sea World is something rather special.Oh, and Journey to Atlantis rocks kthnx XD

I have to say that the improvements made were outstanding. The amount of excitement that a few cooured lights has conjured up within me is unbelieveable.The new audio is amazing, and themed! :)I'd just like to thank the rides department for doing such an amzing job, you have tranformed this ride into something alot better than it was.I'd really like to see minimal changes every year- like what they were doing previously. That would be really quite cool XD

OO good point, I didn't think of that. In which case, I would actually cry, that's an insanely long ride haha.

Isn't Rush quite high friction though? Does it not stop really quickly? Vortex on the other hand, that takes ages to settle after the breaks fail.

This is exactly what I'm saying. It probably won't happen, no, but why shouldn't it happen?

^ I sincerely hope you're right.

I personally think that development will slow down a little, after 2009. I really do not like slagging off Tussauds, but at the way Thorpe is going, it worries me to think of where Thorpe will be in 10 years' time.It's upsetting, it's like seeing your baby being taken by smoking, or drugs, or something similar.The sad thing is, it can all be sorted out with one years' worth of no investment, but just money being applied in the right places.Never going to happen under current management though. One part of me wants to go back the golden days- the 90s. Back before Tussauds was sold to Charter House- the begining of "the parks' " demise.

I was looking out of my window.There was something so humbling about all those stars. I felt so insignificant, but but it was a nice feeling.

Does it really matter that much though?Let me think of another ride I've been stuck on... I don't think I've ever been stuck on a ride at Thorpe, apart from the once on Tidal Wave.What does happen to me alot though, is going into queues, and the ride breaking down then.I remember one day, when literally, 6 rides broke down in a row. It was soo frustrating.

Yeah I've had my BCG. I can honestly say that it was the most paintful injection I've ever had. Actually having the injection was ok, but in the seconds after it really hurt.Also you get the skanky scab/ blister type thing. Lol... I'm actually poking my scar as I speak. I had an MMR booster in 2005. It was nothing. Not painful at all. Although I guess with all injections you get a little bruising.

As Holly says, just relax. If you tense up, it makes it harder to get the needle through your muscle.Don't look at the needle. I used to be really scared of injections. But you'll realize that there are worse things that you'll do.

Thorpe Park does own quite alot of land, granted. Howver, the only problem that they have when infilling lakes is that they have to compensate the water lost by flooding another area.This therefore, becomes very difficult when there is literally no room left. Can you imagine when Thorpe finally reach that point? They will then regret doing things the way that they have been, and when there is literally no room left to build, things will either have to be removd- o sore subject, or things will have to be looked at again and improved (like that's gonna happen).The idea of a hotel at Thorpe is an ambitious one, I just hope they can pull it off....

Haha Thanks. I found that really interesting.

That is something that I'd love to do. I love the different moods/ ambience that lighting and sound can produce. How did you get into that out of intrest; I'd love to start researching and stuff.

Can someone please tell me where I said X would be going next year. I'm started to get paranoid.

Did I?! :mellow:God that seems like ages away. I would have finshed uni by then (if I'm actually going) That's scary tbh.Whatever takes its place, it has to be a better ride than what it already is... surely.

OI!!!!!You patronising little mudblood. That's it I'm telling Dumbledore this intant. And Joe, yeah, that's roughly where mine is.Tonsils- honestly Cringle.

I actually have to have Starbucks once a week or I get withdrawl symptoms. Plus coffee is nice with alcohol in and cream on the top :mellow:I don't drink alot of tea or coffe, In fact I probably drink one cup of tea a month.Why am I having this huge discussion about tea? God this is a new low.

Is it under your jaw. I have on of them too. I've had it for years, so it can't be anything serious. It gets tender sometimes too. I'm sure it's nothing too worry about. But if you're worried, consult your nearest doctor.

Ewww ewwww ewww ewww ewww!!Sugar in tea is actually disgusting.

MMM.... eating Carte Dore whilst feeling sorry for oneself is really appealling tbh.

Well said!I think the worst bit about the re- theme for me was the re-paint of the boats, the "splash zone" thingy, the painting of the bridge, oh yeah, and not to mention the destruction of the queueline.So that covers most of it then.The thing is, perhaps it would be forgiven a little if some of the old effects were working again. I know they get the church organ going but that's it. I haven't seen the water tower work in ages, the gas ball hasn't worked for years (obvious reasons) and although I personally have never seen the telegraph poles "spark" it seems that that hasn't worked for years also.It would be nice if they sorted out the entrance lighting too for summer evenings and Fright Nights.After all, we've had the sponsor, but as of yet we haven't seen any added theming. Something for this season?Who knows...(and no jokes about "Thorpe Park know")

We need a birthday topic!!Today, I would like to wish Cringle a very happy 16th birthday!!Woooo!Enjoy all the legal sex!

Indeed. My main aim in life is to go around destroying people's pathetic petty lives in aid of some light entertainment.You should all try it really, it's fun.AND LOL!!! I love the way how Phill has censored the word bitch, but not the word s**t. :(And I apoligise, but you were the one that said you were on viagra, and you wondered why a certain body part kept sticking out.... your ears Haha, "my nose grows"
