It has always been there when I have gone during weekdays so yes it does.I always use the bus to get from the station to the park, and I agree it is ridiculous to charge £3 for what it is. Also, you have to try and not lose the tiny receipt, to get on the bus back; harder than it sounds when your there all day.And stupid as it might sound, does the bus from the station operate 7 days a week? I'm going on Monday and I've only ever been on it at weekends.

The first ever time I went on Detty I was pushed on because everyone else wanted to go on it except me ( I was on a school trip) I was so scared it didnt look to high from the ground but when you are up there it seem bigger. Anyway when I first went on it time seemed a lot slower when we was going to the top it seemed to take for ever to get up there. Then the countdown started and by the time we had 2 seconds before detonation I was shaking like a leaf then when I got off I said never again then 1 hour later I was back on it and I have loved it ever since. I think riding in the dark is best seeing the whole park lit up.

The best one I saw was at Dreamland fun park in Margate but cant remember what it was called it went really high. (Dreamland now has half a ride ) so it is a great place to visit.

I wish Thorpe was like that.All rides were pretty much walk-ons.Got on well loads of rides

Not sure it might have something to do with it stopping at a funny angle last Sunday or it could be waiting for a new part but I don't know.It's still there > Grrrr... Anyone know why it's down?

And what grrr for?Yes, both swings work at the same time, but Rush is quite temperamental so sometimes it will only work on one swing. That said, Rush, in terms of reliability is infinitely better than it was back in 2005-2006.EDIT: Grrr Sam P!

Yes they do both swing at the same time but only when it is busy they were both up and running at FN last year I should think they have a 2 swing op this easter.Just wondered, do both the swings ever work at the same time? I've been to Thorpe many times and I've never seen both working at the same time...

And thats is very unlikley.I don't think so either, the odds are probably less likely than winning the lottery

I was thinking the same that will never happen.I wouldn't worry about the train stopping on the top hat, and a previously sparked fire eating away at the train and riders. Something tells me it's not going to happen.

Not sure if it has been spitting wax and rust then I would say no but not sure it could be but just think it will be shut and if it is open it is a bonus.Any more news on Nemesis? Maybe open for wednesday???

Don't say that you will know what will happen now.The ride has run like clockwork since it's downtime in late 2007.

When I went to the park for a Travel and Tourism trip Storm in a tea cup and Quantum are teacher just got the giggles we dont know why but oh well. When I first ever saw Quantum I thought I wont waste my time going on that but we got in the queue to try it out and it was a lot better than me and my brother expected.
