It is really fantastic to see Alton Towers fully refurbishing Hex paying attention to every detail and most importantly, the experience. (Unlike Duel ). This actually makes me want to go this year just to ride the new Hex (And see Nemesis with her completed paintwork). For all the negativity I see against Merlin, I am very happy with the progress they are making in refreshing an aged and worn Alton Towers.

It is reassuring to see new footage being made for the VR. Hopeful they have actually listened to everyone's feedback that the last scenes were rubbish.The sign is nice, I like the metalwork and the layered red background shadowed by the text. The rivets make it look a bit like a boiler case. It would hae been easy to do a printed plastic sign but it is nice to have a proper one. I do appreciate extra details like this.

The new donut shop at Chessington is fab, hopefully it's the same and we'll have Derren Brown spooky donuts!

Wait, is that Derren Brown?? In a new promotional video??????? Thought he has nothing to do with the project anymore  

I don't think Creams will be needed...

So guysssssss... due to the usual malarky of trying to book a table at a restaurant of 20+ on a Saturday evening, we have had to go for the 2nd voted choice (for the third meet in a row!). Also Pizza Hut were being silly and said they don't take bookings for Saturday evenings (oh well their loss).
 
SOOOOO - we have 4 tables booked for TGI Friday's in Staines, they will all be next to each other in the same section so don't panic! This will also make payment at the end easier  
 
The table is booked for 18:15PM, this means people can park from 18:00 for free!

Even though I can't attend the meet - can I say the system employed by @Ryan for paying at Frankie & Bennies on the Guildford meet was faultless, good work sir.

Will be great to see you Matt! I remember my first meet many years ago, was stupidly nervous and very nearly didn't meet up with the group. Best decision I've ever made though, I've made some great friends and had some fantastic experiences. Heck, now I'm even helping running the things!

Why do people think it's not being announced today? Be patient!
