I don't know if I could name a favourite, but here are the most awesome ones: Charlie Chalk (one of the best!) Bertha Thomas The Tank Engine Raggy Dolls Family Ness The Queen's Nose The Demon Headmaster (scary!!) Bodger & BadgerRugratsWild Thornberrys Sylvester & Tweety Get Your Own Back Fun House Live & Kicking SMTV: Live Spot Pingu Robot Wars Gotta love the old theme tunes too!

Actually yeah, to be fair, that's the first time I've seen that coat in that colour. Usually I see the navy blue one

I was doing that I was like "OOOH Flying Fish...OOOH plane....OOOH fire engine!"

"VAIR IS THE TOILET?!" :PShipping containers?

Awesome stuff Although I couldn't help by being distracted by all the mud/groundwork, it ruined it a bit for me BUT according to a YouTube comment: "This video was taken during initial test runs. Since them, there has been considerable themeing and landscaping around the site." :)But in terms of the actual coaster itself, it looks amazing and sounds amazing

Does it really matter if there a lot of meets in one month? Surely this is a good thing, because it gives people a lot of choice, less chance of disappointment, plus with The Swarm, the more oppornuties to ride

There will be another advert because they filmed the TV one the other week, with real people :DPatience, my dears

So is it the official ad?

Added myself to the attending list Double checked with work today about getting the day off and even though it still needs to be authorised by this senior guy, my supervisor said it should be fine and he's positive it will be authorised. Wooo!Really excited for this and also the Mini Meet on Saturday 17th Apart from the uber excitement for Swarm, I'm looking forward to seeing people again and meeting new faces!

Oh is it? Well thats taken the humour away from that moment then! Well it was still funny to hear Marc say it, whether or not he meant it or was quoting from BB.

Super Booster was taken down today As I said before it's due to maintenance issues. It kept getting stuck; either at the top, where it wouldn't release so they had to slower lower it back down then test it, or it would get stuck halfway up. It happened a hell of a lot, like several times a day.One senior member of staff who was talking about it reckons it's the "sea air" which is causing it to rust, which I guess in turn damages the ride and causes it to suffer with these problems.Apprently it has been sold to M&D's so could be travelling around the UK :)I know it's only a ride and its only Brighton Pier (although now I work there I guess I'm becoming more "attatched" to the rides ) but it was so unique, the ONLY ride of its kind in the UK, intense (made even more so by the fact the seats are basically stand-up-floorles!) and such a great spectator ride. The moment people were on it a crowd would gather to watch. And you always knew when it had just dropped because you could feel this wobble wherever you were on the pier Being right next to it in the staff room was insane!For those of you who never went on it, never been to Brighton and just to remember such an awesome ride, here are some videos:Off ride On ride The guy in this one is hilarious, love his "Oooeer!" noise at 0:44 LOL!On ride at night Also love the way the wind blasts your face and rushes through your ears when you do that first drop, and the speed, gah! The noise on the POVs is great!Such an awesome ride! Really going to miss it, I hope I get to ride it again in the future somewhere! It is the second most scariest/intense ride I have ever done after the Sky Coaster at Blackpool. Even though the most intense part is the first drop, the rest is still fun and nothing could ever get you used to that drop! Makes Detty seem pathetic and a complete doddle when you compare it!(Oh and btw, this ride is not to be confused with the Mondial Capriolo )UPDATE: Here is the latest blog entry from Brighton Pier http://www.brightonpier.co.uk/blog/hello-simulatorSo, what I was told at my interview about a simulator is true...but nothing yet on the Move-It they also mentioned. Really hope they get one, would be a great addition to the pier (and great to operate)!

Oh well, that's no great loss;)

Ok guys, we are going to have a sign with us at the meet point to indicate who/where we are, and also for the lolz So look out for this:

THANK YOU SARAH!This is what I was trying to explain to some male members off here in Skype once (think it was LiamT and SAWROB?) but they weren't having any of it. Said they would dress up in drag and go to Thorpe and look great all day

I love it Love the pics and the videos we have had recently :wub:I love how in that video they sit there all casual, yet laughing hysterically :lol:EDIT: OMG more pics Thanks Diesel!

^^ Ditto. I do not look like a guy. Thanks.Flying around Colossus at 45mph will however blast my hair off my face to make it look short/like a guy's. I'm assuming that's why I got mistaken for Ricky anyway. If there's anything else about me that people think makes me look like a guy then you need your eyes tested! Or a slap from me

That is cool Sheepie, I did see the results I just wondered how long the poll was open for

Exactly, I could not agree more Even though Sundays are "quieter" (I mean really, they can't be THAT much quieter, face it, it's going to be quite busy so either way?) I reckon the reason we had low meet numbers last year was due to the fact the meets were Sundays. The SAW open meet was a Saturday and that had a good turn out, for example.I can see both sides but the mod team have had members requesting.suggesting meets not to be on Sundays becuase of public transport and commitments the following day.

I haave voted for the 17th and will try to book it off work, when will the results be announced? The sooner the better so I can get it off (withouth sounding selfish, of course there will be others who need enough time to arrange it off if need be).If it's on the Sunday then again, I will try to boo it off, probably will have more chance of getting it off as Sundays are quieter on the pier.Not sure if that made any sense but meh.

Super Booster has been sold! Originally heard it was going within then next few months.by the summer, but today I heard it's going within 2 weeks! It's costing the pier a lot to maintain, it's having a lot of problems. Rumours at the moment are that it will be replaced with a simulator and a Move-It :oEven though they have good reasons for removing it, it will be a shame. It really is the most intense ride there, and a very unique ride, the only one in the UK! Glad I got to ride it today, the feeling in your stomach is just...argh!

Wooooo! Old skool people

Meh, I changed my mind I still would've attended meets though either way
