Jobs..
I'm currently working in France on a second 8 month contract and need to start looking for jobs back in the UK again soon, in case there are no permanent contracts available. However, my contract here finishes at the beginning of January, so naturally, almost "nowhere" will be looking for staff - oh the joys of being a seasonal!!

Disneyland Paris
Fantillusion is back soon! Can't wait!! I will second every single person about getting to Crush's Coaster ASAP. The queues are often external , everytime I've seen them!With food being a topic, if you wanted to dine "with" some characters, The Lucky Nugget in Frontierland is a great place, nice atmosphere with the band too - not sure about pricing I'm afraid! Also, Cafe Mickey in Village is also rather popular too, and it's open till late. There's a few others too sometimes

Fastrack
It's always been caled Hydration Fastrack.
-
Nemesis Inferno
The bark chippings used to be an orangey red, with yellow bark protruding out from the centre, to give a lava like look. I can't seem to find any photos either! Nowadays, it's pretty much just orange bark!
-
Fastrack
Actually, it's both wristband and ticket, which lists all the rides you can use the Fastrack on. Both are countersigned and dated in order to validate eligibility, I should assume because it is a very expensive package!

Fastrack
You may have to save up a little longer, dude, Ultimate Fastrack is now £70!

SAW: The Ride
SAW - The Ride Fastrack is not available until around May, and as such, the only time the Fastrack Entrance will be closed is when the ride itself is closed or during a shutdown. Haha, I laugh in your face!

SAW: The Ride
The part with the water effect, so to speak, is based around the first film, I wouldn't think they'd plonk something random there for the fun of it! It is slightly hard to tell in normal lighting conditions though...
-
SAW: The Ride
What about a severed foot, shackled to a pipe? :)Honestly though, the attention to detail in the Bathroom scene is amazing, there is actually a lot there! You just can't appreciate it as much when on the ride as normal!

Chest Restrictions
The ride restrictions on the website state that "For safety reasons guests must be properly secured in the seat, which may not be possible for some guests with larger torso or thigh measurements." A selection of the biggest rides have a test seat outside them, and if you're above 1.95m and have a 51" chest, it is recommended you use the test seat provided at the entrance of these rides, as to avoid potential dissappointment prior to boarding. As far as I'm aware (do not quote me on this), the belt buckle on any of the restraints must be secured properly. However, there are some rides, such as Vortex, Samurai and SAW: The Ride that do not have seat belts, so there is a light provided which signifies whether or not the seat is able to accomodate a person of your said size (The SAW one beeps as well! )Hopefully you'll have a great day, my friend has very large legs, and an extra push on the Vortex restraints usually does the trick!I hope I've helped! ;)EDIT: Josh R beat me to post , but adding onto his point about Nemesis Inferno, the test seat outside is that of the larger modified seats, so if you fit into that, you should be fine!

Your Sexuality
Ahh mate, I really do feel for you. I didn't officially come out at school (some say I still haven't) but I still had a load of it myself, and like you I either ignored it or just brushed it off. However, like Mark9 said, things WILL get better from here on, and you will have a lot more freedom to express yourselfI used to get stuff like that a lot, and although it may not be like you to do it now, just milk it. I've rarely ever encountered any homophobes recently, but should such a comment be made, play along with it (within reason of course). Back in the day, even if it wasn't the best idea, I thought "stuff it", I proper camped it up and started acting all flirty around the guys who took the mick. It eventually shut them up, but if you ask me, just act yourself, be yourself, and you will be more universally accepted by your fellow peers, if not so already! I personally try to make something positive out of any negative instance such as that!]Judging by the way you phrased that, don't for a second think that you're not normal. You are who you are! :PWhy thank you! Dude, everything should pass over time. I don't know what your choices are for when you finish your GCSEs (and it's all up to you), but I personally found leaving school for college a great way to boost my self esteem and build my character more. I forget what else I was going to say here, but you will learn so much about yourself in the years to come! I still have much to learn myself! By being who I am now, I feel more accepted by people for being me than I was back in the school days (I didn't have much street cred back then, especially as it was an all boys school!).

Calgary Stampede
Click HERE for some information on the actual Calgary Stampede. I read something about it a while back, and in my opinion, it couldn't have had a better name for the ride/area. Great ride too back in the day, but looking back, the colour scheming wasn't all that good, along with the actual ride structure. I do remember the queue line being a massive cattle pen alongside a rock facade, like the back section of CCR.

Jobs at Thorpe Park
Ahh well done mate! As for being in retail, you will still have to do the Health & Hygiene shizzle because you're dealing with the likes of stock with expiry dates and what not. As standard with all retail outlets (not just Thorpe) that sell products such as drinks and ice cream, regular daily temperature checks have to be completed. There's loads more to it, but to be fair, it's not rocket science, it's a total breeze! I was selling coffee during the winter, not in a coffee shop like Starbucks, but for a company called Nespresso, and I still had to do the training! Don't worry about it though, you'll learn what's relevant! A little examination hurt no one

Jobs at Thorpe Park
Sort of. It goes: Hosts < RACs < TLs < RUMs and so on.... all very cool stuff! They've also put in a fantastic "pyramid" training scheme this year, to ensure people get trained fairly on the rides and get more opportunity to operate. Personally I think this year will be the best year ever, so you've clearly joined at a great time! I'm bare looking forward to my new home for the first 6 weeks too!
