Park Music
I always say Nemesis Inferno is reliable for Thorpe! :)I don't agree that mixing the audio sounds good, sorry!

Park Music
Good old Thorpe Park!Then again, all the audio has been in the right area when I have visited! :)Colossus playing on the Rumba Rapids is just wrong!

Chessington General Discussion
I have only heard positive comments (well until now) of the food at Rameses Revenege. (The Fried Chicken Co).I heard it is great food at a good price.I know I am saying this as if I have not been to Chessington before, but it is only because I have not ate at the FF Company yet.

Thorpe Park Trip Reports
Glad you had a good day!Just wondering, why do people put 99 mins for a queue time when it usually goes up in 5's?
-
This Or That
SAW: The Ride effects.Rattlesnake or Tomb Blaster?
-
Air
Agreed with Air Dan.I also thought of the following points...Also, Being next to Nemesis. Nemesis is a really big and popular attraction. So having Air by Nemesis can influence the queues.e.g. Nemesis is unavailable so people go to Air.Nemesis having a longer queuing time than Air.Being next to other attractions which can still be popular. - Ripsaw and The Blade.The Skyride having a station in Forbidden Valley.(As well as stated above just being next to Nemesis.)

Fastrack
I am not 100% sure.I looked on my Ultimate Ticket which I found on my only ever Ultimate Ticket brought. (Don't know why I still have it but it may come in useful now for you! )It does sayStealthStealth PPI think Stealth PP means Stealth Pole Position which I think means you can ride on the front row.I am sure regular Thorpe Park visitors or staff will correct me if I am wrong.

Chessie Website
Chessington's website does not need a box saying the rides unavailable for three reasons...1. It can make it unique and different from Thorpe Park's website.2. Chessington's reliability for rides and attractions is a lot higher than Thorpe Park's.For the sake of every now and again adding to the scroll 'so and so' is currently unavailable will not do the website any harm.3. I personally feel that if a website has a 'Rides Currently Unavailable' box; This can make guests assume that the park has bad reliability of its attractions.(Whether true or not!)

This Or That

Chessington Trip Plans
I am planning to go to Chessington on Sunday 28th June 2009.It has been a whole month since I have been :(Hopefully, this trip will be more enjoyable as when I last went on 25th May; I was on study leave for exams so was thinking of the work I had to do when I got back. So yes, looking forward to going to Chessington and go on Vampire once again. Oh, and as a weekend. Kara (for anyone who knows her) should be working. So that will make me really happy! :PKara - Your Vampire storker is coming to see you!

Closed Rides
I do know her name but she was very nice to me.Also, Sorry, I am not prepared to get any member of staff into trouble as I appreciate that she told me. Also, she made my day better as well as other staff.All I will say is that she was on CCR.
