I arrived at 6 for the evening on Saturday and the number of people leaving was insane. I also believe there was nothing in park or at the entrance telling people the park was open until 9pm which I think is half the problem. Not everyone physically looks at the opening times and assume it shuts at 6. They really should add a closing time sign at the entrance or perhaps the bigger queue time boards.

All those years, and just in time for the fears of gas prices set to increase massively again it's installed. I reckon it won't happen, but I'd like to be wrong!

The security queue is still a mess, and not sure how it only seems to be an issue here, but always has been since it was introduced. That said I have no issue with the operations inside the park on the whole. Thorpe Park have been leagues above all other UK parks in my opinion the last couple of seasons.

I'm not sure I'd prefer working in a HHN maze to a Thorpe maze. The whole acting like an animatronic sequencing of the acting style looks incredibly boring compared to the improvisation you get at typical Thorpe and other events but yes first year certainly. That said out in the scare zones at HHN or working shows would be far better!

I'm not really feeling it for FN this year, normally by now there is a bit of excitement, and although I think that trailer isn't bad I can't put my finger on it as to why i'm not feeling it. We shall see!

Stealth has been run very well the last two seasons! 1:13 is not the best they have done as I have seen plenty of launches around the minute mark and on occasion even 40 seconds! You can see near 40 seconds on this video I took on my Tik Tok page (would be great to get a few follows guys) https://vm.tiktok.com/ZNdpHUhut/

Unsure, but it hasn't been seen the last couple of seasons.

It was also doing this throughout most of last season too. I don't think it's a new issue. Certainly odd though.

No idea, but TBH I'm not a fan of any of it anyway. Nowhere near as good or memorable as the previous stuff!

Samurai has been more reliable in recent years! It used to have a traditional give up around May/june and October for about a month a piece!

No most don't but a small minority but have found it useful to know alongside!

No action at all today at Stealth. Rumba on the other hand cycling all day and then about 3pm with staff in position, so expect to be up soon.

Definitely recommend checking out Vibes Bar and Kitchen in the dome. Genuinely shocked at how tasty it is considering the mess of food a the parks the last few years.

Ghost train will still have a cast of actors. Some people have just been appointed the role.
