slammer had no break downs (that I saw!) and the longest we qued was 15 mins for rush at 10 to 12 PM and Nemesis Inferno was going mostly empty apart from the front and couple of other rowws were filled it also took 3 and 1/2 minutes for the front and it was the best experience on it ever! oh I 4 go it was only rumba and loggers! sorry joe

I went to Thorpe Park on Monday 23rd of April, it was really good!Rush was working with 2 swings, noise level of the grey tanks reduced and 3 full swings!X:/ No Way Out New Themeing is great!Flying Fish id having bushes palnted around it but that means it was shut all day with stealth! and water rides apart from tidal wave were shut tooride Count:Depth Charge x1nemesis inferno x1(frot row!)Rush x1zodiac x1quantum x1vortex x1Colossus x1samurai x1slammer x1

I went to TP today (10th feb. 07) and it was rubbish but they are building a new roller coaster and the staff would not tell me anything,I would have to wait and see but it will go underground like Oblivion at Alton Towers. The view of Canada Creek Was extrodenary, Slammer was in pieces and so was The Rockey Express, And Samurai had not pods and the park had fenced off from the Colossus Entrance to the fence by Colossus's Loop. Calypso Quay was silent apart from Pizza Hut where we all had lunch. Thorpe Park had drawn a line from Colossus to Stealth, all rides past Stealth And Colossus were Shut due to weather conditions which was not true because I asked a staff memeber why half of them were not open and the relpy was in the closed season they take appart all of the rides and paint them and make sure they're ok, which was not true because Colossus was all rusty like Tidle Wave. Canada Creek was fenced off because the machines were filling in the lake by Samurai and the path had machines on it in Canada Creek. But The Ranger County was in action with Mr. Monkey's Bananah Ride And Chief Ranger's Carousel But Miss Hippo's Fungle Safari was shut. Rush was in terrible condition, part of the Q-line fence was destroyed and the nets over the Q-line and the other net on the other side by Zodiac were in bad condition they were split or they had come off the brown supports. Stealth wasn't any different but the staff memers said it was not 0-80MPH in 1.1 seconds its 0-80MPH in 1.9 seconds and they havn't even changed any of the adverts in the park or at they race car tyre entrance of Stealth. The Stunts Arena still had the halloween horror maze 'Se7en' Fire Torches up and inside the Arena was the grey/silver tempory fencing but the white tent had gone. Hellgate was all there with the entrance tunnel to enter the maze. From the Colossus Q I saw the Freak Show 3D Information sign and in the Stunts Arena the Se7en Infromation sign was still stuck on the wall. The Park still had the adverts by Rush for 'Fright Nights' 2006. I asked one of the staff members why Colossus only had one train working and the reply was they were still repairing the train, but I thought they had 3 trains. Stealth only had 1 train running to, and they haven't changed the border on the on-ride photos from 2.3 seconds to 1.9 seconds.ADMIN COMMENT: Please use paragraphs in future. Post edited.
