Anyway you blokes.. moving on from the I'm subject... I think we need to organise a closed season meet soon.. I know alot of us have mocks etc. at the moment but I'm sure we can fit one in around Christmas... these weekends are getting incredibly s**t now lol. Was cool seeing alot of you on Last Day of season after I've like been in hiding for the past 6 months and hadn't seen any of you.. would say London meet as it's 5 mins away from me but.. it's a bit dry, so anyone got any ideas?

Chessington General Discussion
Wells... I won't be returning to Chessington next season as I wasn't invited back... for the following reason: "As you were only here for a short time, the Rides department felt they didn’t get a good enough chance to see how you work" .. would of thought that meant they would invite me back to give me a chance to see how I perform.. maybe not, shame..

Comet are really awful, same goes for currys. We bought a hoover from them ages ago and they said the warranty was wrong and some crap like that.. took 3 months to replace.. ridiculous, I would be running down there like a mad man if I was you right now.

Chessington Trip Reports
Just got back from a brilliant evening at Chessie as a guest on park :mellow:Got there at about 4pm with a couple of groups of school-kids on the same train as me but got to the park and it was lovely and quiet, went and rode the usual's (vampire, fury , tomb) all of which where stay on riding which was great so I got alot of rides on each. Mainly waited until it got dark and then went to ride everything again, the rides where brilliant in the dark and all the mist from the cold air was really giving the park a great atmosphere, especially because of how quiet it was. I won't bother with a ride count but all rides where in double figures by the time I left the park at 7:30. Thank you for a great season Chessington (even if I was working for the last month of it) alot of improvements from the last season again and I really enjoyed being at the park as a guest alot more than I did at any other Theme Parks this year, nice job. Below are my photos from today and a On Ride Video of Vampire in the dark.Album From TonightVampire - On Ride Video - DarkDragons Fury In Dark

Future Of Chessington
Lol, there is a new development in that area and the Animals which where there are being permanently re-located, not too sure what the development is planned to me (most likely a new enclosure or something) but yeah, the fenced of area is a right pain for staff now, we have to go the long way to our areas now lol. Let alone the fact guests are absolutely confused by the fenced off dead end.

Lee in your video at Buccaneer giving you Priority Passes "this is the fastest it can go"Oh well, at least you had a good day. you're video once again brang out the good bits about the park and I agree that at Chessington when I was a guest I used to feel alot more well treated by the staff than at any other park

Enjoyed working at chessie today very much, alot of the work I had to do today was however behind the scenes as I had to be trained up and shown all different parts of the ride which aren't of access to the public. So if anybody saw me it would've been somewhere random like underneath vampire lols. I completed training and was assesed on Vampire , Bubbleworks , Seastorm , Capers and Playhouse, not bad to get trained up on all those in one day. Working again next Saturday and will be back platforming for more than 30mins at a time

Would be nice if they started be on Vampire I'm guessing will start on Bubbles then Something like buccaneer.

Jobs..
Yeah but still, they have to do 30 odd for all of the new staff in 30 minutes or so.. think they where meant to do it yesterday but they where a tad lazy.

Have a look at the Laws in Kingston, they are completely different to those of the Runnymade (or something) which is Thorpe's local council. Every council has they're own laws. I am working less hours and days than some of the 16 year olds however some people aged 16 who are doing they're GCSE's like myself in year 11 have the same maximum working hours. I still work quite alot though thanks to new laws. Waiting for my contract to come in the post now. On Saturday I shall be laving at 7:45 and getting on the same train as the other chessie peeps, gots to get there and make my staff ID, not too sure how they're going to issue about 30 staff ID's that morning but meh.
