Completely agree. I swear it has the ability to de-childrenise people. Bad times. I don't know why there can't just be restraints that once locked, can't lock lower in the way that SAW does.
-
Cool bananas. Hippophobic I am. Although I suppose I would try and let a hippo experience the ride as well, if they'd fit on. Perhaps they should have the entire row...! xD
-
Most hilariously unrelated thing ever. (I've just got your hopes up for nothing, sorry). There's an emergency fire exit in Stealth's queue that goes... into the lake. We were told they generally don't use it. I wonder why.... Although if we could get mrs 10 thorpe park things I hate about you into that queueline and then sound the alarm...!

If donuts = good persuasion I know a certain theme park that does them. Just for heavens sake don't have them and go immediately on Nemesis Inferno. They have an anti-nemesis ingredient in that takes at least dough-y minutes to set in. Om nom nom << made me laugh so much. I've never heard it before, you craaazy lady.
Have you terrified yourself on Saw yet?

Illegal online response, but heck you could see this stuff today.Engineers EVERYwhere you could imagine. In places unimaginable. No, scrub that, just about imaginable places that aren't twisted. Dirrrty minded people.PLUS Mike Vallis has been over in that area actually with the engineers (doing what I have no idea) so much, I have to say in my view they are doing everything imaginable to fix the problem. It seems they're replacing every last bit of it. Even the bin4gum bins that were pointless since they had no bottom, and that G was easily graffiti-able.

Completely good idea. So many people thought Stealth WAS Saw. Haha, WAS is SAW backwards. That's incredibly unamusing but erm, woof? A mum + kids were all upset... until I told them Stealth wasn't Saw, durr. That's almost as stupid as a ride host putting someone on a ride with chavs and not realising who they are. You weren't disguised as a CHAVS were you? *ducks*
-
Does Stealthy the cow actually LOOK like Stealth? He needs to see a vet. Udder udder boom boom. Wtf?! In 2009, Ellie decided to ride Samurai 'cos Rich the slightly craazy and almost scary ride host was working on it. Uh oh, it's now down there in the written word, like the bible and um, some book by Enid Blyton. You have to ride it now. Mwah.
-
Pah, really, you expect to ride it next week? Really, you thrill seekers. You want the iconic rides open before Fright Nights. It's shocking. xD
-
Liking the background in that. I might try to steal it. The cookie'd probably be quite nice too. So Mr James, when're you next coming to SAMURAI. Clearly soon. I cannot believe I spoke to you but didn't recognise you. I blame the chavs. Who I can't remember either, which is a good thing. xD
-
You Mr, have now been spotted on park two successively sunny days. I can think of absolutely no other words beginning with S but, HOORAH. I think you might be a bit addicted. Look out for Rich on Samurai...but not that one!
-
Tut Tut. This is now you > http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_FD_yDjkRGeI/R03i8pPlpOI/AAAAAAAAAKI/JBK3JUxIZZE/s400/kermit.jpg (*cries* there go my 400 characters). Harold *snigger* was also working on Samurai today, and he would keep loading 6 people into row 6. Every other row, perfect. But there just ain't enough damn seats!
-
I now officially own your comments bit. It’s being rethemed as Rich RSS. Being a tad over eager here but seeing as I must have basically been blind whilst at work (never seems like work) is my missing you gonna be even WORSE that I actually asked YOU how many of you there were? That last sentence was not intended to fattify you. Also, I secretly enjoy receiving those New Mania Hub Comment e-
-
Haha! Not at all. You just sounded a bit sheepish with that laugh. Sheepie won't be pleased! You mean I ACTUALLY batched you on? I thought I'd managed to miss you by being the "watchy" person (the only boring bit). I'm shococked (thats excessively shocked). Did I hold the chain thing open for you too?! How the HECK did I miss you? Unless you've had plastic surge
-
...which I call HALT, YOU GERMAN where no one is actually allowed to move! Good times! Glad you enjoyed my craziness, I got stuck outside Stealth for the last hour... but was rescued by some training people 10 minutes in, and got trained to attend on Stealth.... if it ever works again! Thanks too for your loveliness, which I'm sure I've spelt wrong.
-
..so try & memorise 5 complete strangers names, then lock two more pods & get to the console remembering them! You HAVE to come again immediately soon, excluding the weekend when I'm not in and get your name sung out by the whole ride!! Thumbs up. I must eStop waffling. If it was me, you'd have seen Rich on my badge *snigger* and noticed my pretty damn odd boarding proc
-
Noooo. That was probably me, but being the most unobservant person in the universe I never saw you all day. BOO. (That's a boo kind of boo, not the boo, argh! boo). I was brave and did three random 'shout outs'. The op was rather nice you see and let me control the PA thing. I felt powerful. I reckon I'm just about to run out of space.. so message two...
-
You're dead. The uber sad thing was, I was actually trying to think of other brands of tea to name each member my pod of crazy girls. All I could think of was Yorkshire Tea (wtf?!!) and PG Tips. How utterly crap.Yo Tetley, where's Yorkshire? Biggin' it up to the PG.Don't worry, I'll just leave quietly.
-
Hahaha! Thanks! Yep, I'm on Thrills and...woah, my eyes just found "Battered cod tartlets" and "iamDipsy"... interesting mix of profile useage there! Stealth is poorly :-( BUT it'll be fixed soon :-). Ok I'm just being weirdo now, I'll stop!

I HAVE to tell you X is TINY. It feels so big in the dark, but they locked it off at 5 for our "tour" and fired up the lighting (sounds brutal). It really isn't as big as it seems. (Oh, and it's crap).James, you're completely right. Coming out of X after 5 minutes explodes your retinas. Still, there were four of us going round X... so perhaps they can forget they wanted to train me on it... Samurai anyone?!EDIT: Rich (it's like I'm talking to myself here!) I was platforming from about 3ish. How amazingly fun is Samurai? I used to *like* it. We've progressed quickly with our relationship. Hannah was operating, and then ANOTHER Richard turned up. Also, in our XNWO tour there's yet ANOTHER Richard. I make that two Rich's and two Richard's. Hell, that'll be a fun "Rich to the console please!"
-
Haha! But which one's that? Smiley or Chinney?

Day One = Learning how beautiful the interior of the TP canteen is, for 2 hours. Then a bit of Samurai training (get in! xD).Day Two = Meant to be an assessment to make me a proper ride attendant... happened at 2pm! Followed by joyous loading of the upside downy, spinny roundy ride which I may have accidentally fallen in love with....I say that because just as the park shut we were given the first bit of training on X. Nooooooooooooooooo (Way Out).Samurai could never compete.It's a mighty warrior after all. I wanna be on Samurai tomorrow. Well, it's all I'm trained on! As for whether that happens or I get to be all jolly outside Stealth again and tell people that Stealth ISN'T the new attraction but SAW is, and point at the clearly visible drop, is to be seen.That genuinely happened with 3 separate groups of people. Shocking but true.But it's ACTUALLY amazing. Someone called me Tetley. I have no idea why. But the whole of one of the pods on Samurai was Tetley-ing me as it came down. (Fear not, it didn't fall down).
-
Completely USUAL perhaps, but I reckon I saw Marc on the park (argh, rhymingness) today.Bit of a double take and then he'd gawn.So I stalked his picture out, and it's definately this smiley guy I sawNote: Not the smiley chin dude, which I have a feeling is the other Mark. The one with a 9. That'll be Mark9 then..So HI MARC, with a 7 hour delay from seeing you to speaking. I'm a bad staff member. Next time I'll shout at you. Nicely, of course!This is all rather amateurish, but I saw a TPM person at Thorpe Park (really I hear you cry, does it happen?) and well, woo!</Rich's random crapness>

Are any delightfully cool people on here starting work at Thorpe this week?Je suis.
-
Cool stuff, you'll have to be going on one of the slightly less iconic rides to find me but you don't have to sink as low as Ollie Octopus haha. Tidal Wave is experience not thrills, which I thought was odd. Kangaroos can't drive, or can they? Ooh, after 8 months of wondering I've just found the "add friend" link. I pay attention to things... just like SUE: The Bride, new a
-
...ok, you actually need an MB after your name. Not megabite, clearly, but morale booster haha. The saddest thing EVER is that I just replied this on MY profile... (I've deleted it now and you're lucky to get v2 on yours). When are you next coming to ride for your life at TP?! If it's past Tuesday, I'll be there!
