Thorpe Park - Fright Nights - 24th October
Well you have to have bought them on park first - the number you enter on the website is on the receipt. You couldn't just get the 4 digit photo number and use it, it has to be a 12 digit one from the receipt.I suppose the good thing is it solves the "keyring or photo" dilemma. Just buy the keyring, enter the number on the website, and you can view the full size photo, save it, print it off at home or Boots or whatever...tada! You have both! Unless of course you do two for £10, won't be much different in price. But it benefited me, because I had a Photo Pass, got two pics, two keyrings with it...and then paid £4 to get the keyrings as photos online...which I'm sure is cheaper than buying 4 photos, 2 keyrings!Hell I dunno But it's a good idea to have the website anyway!

Chris how did you do that?EDIT: ridephoto.com :(But how did you get the full size? You have to pay!EDIT AGAIN: Ah that one you can view. I tried to view the Fish one but cos it's a keyring, thats why it was small...but cos it's the same photo number as the photo version Ian has I thought I'd be able to view it full size, silly me.I filmed Rush at night, and the original video (iPhone 4) is fine, but when I convert it to WMV (using an HD video converter which has worked fine with everything else), the swings/people look pixelated...but nothing else does! Grr and it's only doing it on the good video, with the best view of the ride! I would blame it on the darkness but seeing as the original one doesn't look pixelated...Then I shall convert the CCR one Hopefully that one will convert ok!

Photo time! :PGroup pic at Asylum:Group pic outside the Dome:Group pics at Stealth rocks:Other random advemtures from the day:The rest are on my Facebook. It took ages to link them to here cos they have a new photo uploader and viewer, and the viewer is Flash. Yep, so you have to right click, page info, media tab, go to the bottom of the long list of crap and find the normal .jpg link to the photo. Grrrr! However the new uploader means you can upload higher-res pics and tagging is easier. But the viewer being Flash is pain in the arse!

Thorpe Park - Fright Nights - 24th October
Yesterday was amazing, it's a shame you couldn't go Marc!Brilliant organisation, no way near as busy as we thought meaning a good ride/maze count, lots of laughs and some great photos! :PAnd yes Chris! Flying Fish was epic! The first 2 times we had the brilliant "woop woop" staff member, the second 2 goes were at night and we basically took over the front! And the operator was great!Photo of Stealth clothing tag man and other photos coming soon, posting this on my iPhone; still in bed, as the journey home was fail. Due to the RAC being absolute idiots and taking 3 hours to sort things out. In a nutshell, Ian was gonna drop me home on the way back, and after we dropped Steve and Jord off at Staines, car had issues, called RAC, couldn't drive it, they said they'd get a taxi to get me home but it took about an hour, maybe more, to get there and it seemed like they just weren't doing their job and had no idea how to communicate! Oh and because we didn't expect to be waiting so long, I chose not to get the train, incase people wonder why I didn't. Plus it would've been a big big rush and it was the last one I could have got!So yeah...I hope your car is fixed soon Ian! Pretty sure you didn't deserve that hassle after the great effort you put in yesterday!But anyway, aside from that, fantastic day out, nice to meet 2 new faces, and bring on the last day of season meet!

ITV are such copy cats, or it's an odd coincidence; on X Factor Katie has just sung a song from Jungle Book which BBC's Strictly Come Dancing used last week. And they've copied the BBC before by having similar soap storylines etc.Yeah bit of a sad thing to moan about but it's kind of cheating to just copy another channel and not be original, just annoys me!

Yup same Click on the ad (don't worry, once the ad opens you can close it, it's not dodgy). Yeah, embarassing fan video stuffs, but I did it yeaaaars ago (and you've all done it, or something similar) and they get a lot of views.May as well make people happy at the risk of being called a geek/fangirl

Thorpe Park - Fright Nights - 24th October
*To the people that wondered why we chose the 24th*That date is in half-term. Yeah it's busy but seeing as a lot of people (including me) are at college, or even school, it wouldn't be wise to chose a non half-term date. A lot of people I imagine would like to stay late (as that is pretty much the point of Fright Nights) and some people don't live locally so won't get home until late! I'm all for having late nights, but it's not just that - it will be a long day and I don't fancy a long day at college after 12 hours of Thorpe (and ride geeks ), long journeys, and a very late night!It wouldn't be fair to those of us in education to chose a different date. I'm shocked people are even asking such obvious questions!

Ditto about the the council house thing. It's a dodgy subject in general - there's this view that anyone who lives in council houses are poor, on benefits and chavs, or young, single mums. Well I know people whose parents have seperated, the mum has the children, and can't afford with just their money to rent through an agent/privately, or buy their own place, so they have no choice but to live in a council house. Doesn't make them bad or scummy/chavvy! Quite often, council places are how people have to start out, especially with the cost of places these days! Back in the day my mum was in a council flat because it was all she could afford. My brother was on the way, parents got married, so they needed a bigger place, so they got a house with the council. Eventually, when I was 8, they could afford to buy their own house. ;)Anyway back on topic...

Music
The radio :blush:Switching between Capital and Heart Sussex or whatever it's called now (previously Mercury FM, Surrey and Sussex's radio station ). It's the same as the normal Heart but with local adverts and news etc.Atm Heart is pretty good, Club Classics, just had Michael Jackson, now they're playing a classic 90s dance tune - Show Me Love by Robin S. Gotta love the 90s

The blood in my SAW syringe pen has randomly disappeared, no joke. Not leaked anywhere. It's been in the same box of pens since I got it and there is nothing in there, and nothing in the desk tidy that I put it in recently. :unsure:Did it just evaporate? LOL.The pen still works, but it has no blood and looks crap now Has this happened to anyone? (Yes it is just a pen and I can buy a new one if I'm that desperate, but I'm just confused!)
