    Oh yea I definitely agree on that, staff are really helpful and seem more enthusiastic about the job. Alfonso fan club on facebook .
  2. Thorpe park are doing great, still reaching full capacity very often and nobody seems less enthusiastic to spend their money on the stalls. Don't go to any other parks so I can't put across an opinion on the others.

    They seem to be doing right by Thorpe park so far so I like them, tuassards only did a half arsed job but Merlin have done far better so far.
  4. Seriously? Those schools must suck, our teachers generally thought they looked cool, a couple weren't too impressed when people were pretending to shoot up in lessons but they wouldn't ban them.Thought it would be best to mention here, I had some chavs behind us queuing for saw, they were noisy gits, they were like 13 smoking, trying to start on us until I pushed one back and he tripped over his friend (they shut up then and just grunted a bit) but they were staring at these girls infront of us who were like 12 or 13, I'm 15 so I noticed their pretty faces and 'potential' but they were perverted little *****s. The tallest one who was about 15 as well I think, hadn't hit puberty so that was funny as well but no word of a lie, they actually spat at the people in the fast track queue, we were so close to turning round and beating the scrawny little ****s up.

    It's nicer looking down but on the other side, looking across at stealth and nemesis looks brilliant.
  6. I lost my phone on nemesis today I had my own little blue shirt search team in there looking for it at about 8 today but there was no luck so it was home with a lost property form for me.
  7. First time I haven't been straight in and first on saw but the rides we got in:Nemesis inferno x4 (small queues and we needed to look for my phone I lost on ride after as well so we got 2 rides in just before 7, didn't find my phone though )Colossus x2Saw x1Stealth x2Detonater x1Vortex x1Samurai x1Slammer x2Rush x2Tidal wave x1
  8. Nemesis and Inferno are two VERY similar B&M inverters.It's great that Merlin are putting a lot of effort into Thorpe, effects on Nemesis: Inferno being renewed, speeding up Nemesis and I think other rides (Nemesis feels great now with the extra push). Saw is a big hit and I've heard (not sure how reliable the source is) that Colossus could be in store for a repainting, the theming and coaster itself has definitely seen better days and the rust and wear on the paint doesn't look nearly as good as it did back in '02.
  9. I couldn't be bothered before but on sundayride countSaw - 3Stealth - 2Nemesis Inferno - 1Colossus - 2Rush - 1Samurai - 1Zodiac - 1 (mate thought it looked cool, I had a minute long sleep on it)Tidal wave - 1Detonater - 1Rumba rapids - 1Loggers leap - 1Coasters averaged about an hourTidal wave was like 40 mins even though the stupid Q said 75 minsFlats were around 30-40 mins at worst, we went when they were about 20, 10 for Detonater

    Day after I go it's back up, how lovely , hope it's still working friday
  11. Went today, queues weren't too bad
  12. Elliot replied to Lewie900's topic in General Discussion
    I honestly think storm in a tea cup is more fun.
  13. It was 2 and a half hours yesterday (friday), it will be a hell of a lot worse in the opening week of the easter holidays.
  14. horrific, saw will attrack thousands, expect 3 hours + for saw after lunch. They won't all be down and Saw Queue line will likely go over 3 hours, go at the very start of the day and wait for it to open for 40 minutes or go at the end and queue for an hour, in the day you'll want to go on other rides.
  15. lack of brakes could prove difficult.

    I play bass
  19. I agree with this, fast track is pointless for saw, so many people would buy them and eliminate the idea of the fast bit, it ruins queueing for the main queue as well, I'd rathet not pay extra for some fast tracks, the whole point in my annual pass is that I pay very little when going to thorpe park.
  20. Lol yea I think I remember, grey top yea? I was the only one out of the people I was with in shorts. Were you behind 3 girls sitting down waiting? they were from my school as well lol, was over 40 people from year 10 at our school there.
  21. nothing was much longer than 30 mins other than saw
  22. Elliot replied to Dan_Rush's topic in General Discussion
    I thought the same thing when I went today.
  23. It was an infill of a lake, that was submitted on April the 1st, not sure how somebody could actually beleive that tbh Whilst you were in the queue for saw I bet I got in a good 5+ rides, every other ride was near enough empty Wow, were you behind me or something? I was literally 4th into the park and ran to Saw but we let 8 others from our school who were also there go ahead so we got the second train which is better. It was Tom and they said 5am about the engineers, they came in and examined the fence before it actually got working. We went on first and then whilst the queue line was massive throughout the day we went on all the other decent rides and then came and queued for about 55 mins for Saw at quater to 5.
  24. Went today, Saw opened at about 10:42, we were literally the first in and we legged it to Saw straight away, went twice today at the start (second cart as there was 15 of us but it's better anymore, you see more of the puppet) and the queue was something like 3 hours long most of the day whilst we enjoyed the 5 minute nemesis inferno queues and other good rides all with queues under 30 minutes thanks to Saw's popularity. Stealth didn't open until about 12 but other than that every main ride in the park was up the whole time, very good day. I was freexing in shorts in the morning but it got a lot warmer in the afternoon and I was fine once we were in the park pretty much, just standing around waiting for the annual pass office to open to get mine was pretty freezing.
  25. I hope that's not just a rumour Will, that'd be awesome.
