I play drums and piano .

Obviously have more security stations. If they can manage it at airports, why can't they do it at TP?Plus a couple of minutes out of your day isn't much to ask for.

I completely know what you mean. Also, while we are talking about the entrance, what does anyone think about the security processes now? I think its good that they started doing it at the beginning of last year, but they should check everyone, not just do a random selection.

It could have been. I suppose it just depends on the duration of the ride.

Vortex doesn't have different settings. The ride operator starts the ride, and then stops it when appropriate. There are no specific settings, such as on Samurai for example.

Thanks, I will. Talking of the despatch area for Vortex, that's another thing I hate. I know there isn't really another easy way of doing it, but I don't like the way that if you are one of the last to get put into the area, you find it hard getting a seat with your friends or the group you are with. I always seem to be one of the last to get in.

I strongly reccomend anyone who hasn't ridden it or has chosen not to ride it because it looks boring, just to give it a try. It is a great ride, is much better than it looks, can be quite a thriller and is so underrated. A great addition to a day at TP!The same goes for every ride at TP, don't knock it until you've tried it!

Thanks for clearing the whole Rumba thing up Rich.

I didn't realise until after I left the SAW store, that the container that holds the Syringe Pens is designed like the needle pit in Saw II.

I noticed that as well. I was reading the last few posts but couldn't find anything that might have got it locked....Also, in terms of theming and paintwork, I think Thorpe Park are doing a good job on most of the rides. Many of us saw on the opening day that many little bits and pieces had been improved. You have to bear in mind that there are a lot of things to do at Thorpe Park, and they can't possibly deal with them all. But yes, as mentioned earlier, I do agree that it is a bit silly that the entrance sign still says Tussauds. I would have thought that this was quite an important thing to change.

The main effect being the . Does anyone know what else is down?

What is the H&S problem with the Rumba Shower?

When I visited last Friday, Logger's Leap was not on the unavailable list. We went over to the ride around 10:30pm, and they said that they were still testing it. I looked at the track just before the tunnel around 1pm, and the water was over flowing out of the track, and the logs were piled up at the entrance to the tunnel. When I returned at 3pm, Logger's Leap was open and running well. Have no idea what happened to it, but it seems to be having some on and off problems at the moment.

I will listen out. Thanks.

I have found that the first time you ride it makes your stomach drop, because it is more rough than you think it is going to be. But on the second time round, it's a pleasant and more enjoyable ride.

I think SAW might be open by Friday. I'm no phsycic, but I think they are . I don't think it will be a very long delay.

£1. Quite a bargain I thought.

I think people who havn't ridden it have very low expectations of it. I would reccomend a ride, and you might be pleasantly suprised.

They have some with SAW: THE RIDE logo on, and I think I saw some with Billy's face on them.

Oh well. All I know is that I would visit the shop whether the ride is open or not.

I can understand where you are coming from (most people will ride and then buy a souvenir to remember their ride), but to be honest, I would just go over to the shop anyway. Remember, they also sell non-SAW things like Chocolate and drinks, so Thorpe Park will keep the store open whatever the weather for maximum profit.

I am a silly billy. Thanks.

When we first walked into the building in the SAW queueline, I said to my friend, "Wow, this looks just like the corridor where that man got shot in the head by a rifle on Saw 1. Ow, they should have put a rifle in here!" 2 seconds later. Bang! Lol.That just shows you that Thorpe and Lionsgate just think of every little detail when designing the theming of the ride.

When the seats spin on Vortex, is that just momentum or is that actually controlled by a motor?Because if it is just momentum, the rides are likely to be different every time. However, if it's controlled by a motor, then yes, the amount of high and low swings would be equal.
