Yeah they're working now. Strange!Ta.

Yeah there is a video of it on Youtube, and I witnessed it at the park with Joe and took pics. It was not upside down, some girls restraints did not open, no-one died, blah blah blah etc.

Seconded. I personally would like to see an Enterprise there. Black Hole?In other news, I didn't realise Rattlesnake was 10 this year. One of my favourite rides at Chessington, roughness is ftw!

*Off topic*Yeah not sure where to post this but I shall be in the general Chertsey / Thorpe area with Seb0rz today so I'll get any pics of anything interesting going on at the park. Which is probably nothing, but hey!

You n00b! Hamster is Hammonds nickname!Fairytale of New YorkSan Andreas or Vice City?

Hamster :)Southeastern or Southern?

Ready brek!Capital or Heart?

I never got a welcome to TPM. Possibly cos I was member number 3 and the only other 2 members were the Simpsonator and Phillage. I wants welcome ¬_¬

Yeah but as usual they were blown out of proportion. All I ever hear from my normal friends that are visiting Thorpe soon is "OMG I'm not going on THE slammer someone died on it when it got stuck and I heard some girls restraints came undone! I also heard that something that fell off THE rush and people were running for their lives!"This usually leads into me typing out whole essays on MSN on how wrong they are.

*Reiterates uber simple point*I believe he said you would be wrong in thinking the prices of TV's are dropping.

To be perfectly honest, Enterprise is the best flat ride in the park IMO. I do consider that a loss really, seeing as the only flat open will be Blade

Avenue Q anyone?

Seeing as London is only 15 mins on the train for me, yes I'll go.

Nah Iskander sang Disturbia down the phone to me and I recorded it and posted it here. He made me take it down so you must have missed it =[

Shut it Disturbia boy I just prefer female voices and Snow Patrol just depress me. That whole pyschological thing where you associate songs with particular events.

I prefer Leona Lewis's version of Run.Bottle Pop is total trash.

Just so you guys know, the videos don't work on the main site for Colossus, Detonator, Nemesis Inferno, Quantum, Rush, Slammer, Stealth, Tidal Wave or Vortex. They're all just taking me to an Error 404 page. Samurai and Zodiac are fine though.

I actually like that song.*Hides in the corner*.Heres a song I'm liking a lot at the moment. Platnum - Love Shy (Thinking About You).Heyah Heyah Heyah Heyah Hey, I'm thinking about you, I'm a love shy babe got to got to get together be strong cuz I know our love will be coming and I won't be love shy anymore Sometimes I run when I wanna stay, Cause of the life that were living, You gotta watch what your saying, And when I see you I wanna hide, I'm a little afraid of the feeling, But what you you want your losing And deep inside is a love, Calling out your name, But I'm not the kinda boy, To pay the price that you say, Don't think that I don't wanna get involved with you, Cause all I wanna do is try to understand baby, Heyah Heyah Heyah Heyah Hey, I'm thinking about you, I'm a love-shy babe got to got to get together be strong cuz I know our love will be coming and I won't be love-shy anymore Try to be patient I know its hard, But what do you want from a writer, Who's still kinda single, And when you think of attention straight, Remember the love is a waiter, Cause its a life don't confuse it You know I spend the first Saturday nights, In the telephone where I can get in touch and then say things, For the emotion takes my mind out all the time, For now the sun is shining I wont be love shy anymore, Heyah Heyah Heyah Heyah Hey, I'm thinking about you, I'm a love-shy babe got to got to get together be strong cuz I know our love will be coming and I won't be love-shy anymore Heyah Heyah Heyah Heyah Hey, I'm thinking about you, I'm a love-shy babe got to got to get together be strong cuz I know our love will be coming and I won't be love-shy anymore

Hmm, its got steadily worse each year. The queue is a bit of a shambles. The seats have been needing manual releases after each ride for about 3 seasons now, the audio is quiet now and it doesn't feel as forceful as it once did, should get some new pistons at the top IMO.Shame really, its a great ride, really packs a punch.

Maybe theres construction work going to be happening in UG Land around that time. Maintenence on The Skyride perhaps?Or the obvious and logical reason, they have looooads of rides to strip down, they simply won't be finished by then and are opening what they can.

Nothing of significant interest really, Slammer has scaffolding round the tops as you can see from the Saw update but thats about all that seems to be going on really.

Umm, Rocky Express music is a bit of a weird choice for a backing track to a Corkscrew video.But yeah >> here << is the full version of the Rocky Express theme used at the park including the twinkley bit at the start.I have tried and the link does work.

I guess Air and Rita will be down because they're more advanced than the other rides and need more maintenence?You can renew your annual pass at any Merlin attraction except Sea Life I believe.
