    Fastrack

    They do do a combo for both Saw: The Ride and Saw Alive but it wasn't on that sheet. It is however advertised in the queue for fast track haha. I think it was £7 for both
  2. Ah we were going to but my mums been ill recently can't walk long distances and we got to by quantum and she was just like I WANT TO LEAVE NOW. So we didn't. She rang up though x
  3. There was a 10 minute queue the other day, so I was expecting to be put in a boat with a different group because I was only with 4 people so there would have been 3 spare seats. I was slightly baffled when I saw many many of the boat things going round with two, 3 or 4 people in them. So I then thought oh we'll be okay. We asked the guy asking how many if we could sit by ourselves because we wanted a picture as we were there with some friends from scarborough and he said okay. And then the woman told us to get in to a boat with a group of three. She was rude when my mum asked if we could sit alone and explained why. My mum then said "well I'm not being funny but we have just seen groups of threes and twos going round by themselves and they were only the 4 boats before us" I could understand maybe them being told the queue was getting long so they should put groups together, but when my mum said about it we were told that all of the many people in the boats we had seen with 2-4 people in them had a special wristband that allowed them to sit by themselves.I was wondering what this wristband is for and if it even exists? This may sound terrible, but I don't mean it to. I understand that there are disability wristbands but I doubt that the many boats we saw go round before us all had somebody with a disability wristband in them.Thanks in advance .
  4. Haha ;D I try hard but when people stare you out it's hard. Maybe I'm just paranoid but I swear the people in front of me were whispering bout me :L. Ah well. A holiday isn't a holiday with atleast one visit to thorpe ;). Haha. Went to alton towers for three days & thorpe three times 8-| & thats it lol x

  5. It was good thanks. Packed though. Lots of 'chav' stereotypes about. I had lunch in the pizza hut buffet and some 'chavvy' boys flicked food at us with their fork and then threw their fork at us which is always fun ;). Haha. Nemesis Inferno fixed my neck though ;D. Which was good. How're you? Good hoidays? :) x

  6. Oh haha, I thought it was because the back part of the earring digs in to peoples necks . I find that sometimes haha. Never seen one of those signs before though . By reason, I meant like did somebody get hurt or something?
  7. I actually agree with what they do at Disney parks & at universal, I see some of the reasons that this isn't feasible but it takes them a few seconds to search each bag & places like the o2 arena do it on a daily basis for thousands of people. I actually feel unsafe at the park sometimes because some of the people scare me that much :| & I do think that the searches are a good idea, when done properly and are effective. The only way for them to be 100% effective would be if they searched everyone. Do people still try to jump over the fence by monks walk? (totally off subject there sorry!)
  8. Is it new? & did they have a reason to put them up ? :S
  9. Haha thank you :) I swear it's just got progressively worse throughout the day. Not fun :(.

  10. Sorry if it's already been mentioned.. But either this is new or I just never noticed it. At the top of the queue stairs when you're going in to the station by the barbed wire thing, there is now a sign that says something about taking earrings off for your own safety. Is there something that provoked thorpe to get this sign or..
  11. I was wearing a plain t-shirt & jeans.. But they searched me because I was with her. I was wearing the same kinda thing as what I wear every visit. Thats the thing I think is bad.
  12. I'm really bad actually :( I've cricked my neck & am going to thorpe tomorrow.. hopefully it's better by then lol.

    I loooooove Justin xD

  13. Yeah, I got the wristband at Alton towers the other day . Are they available at thorpe? I think I've already lost mine oh dear haha. If it's for all year, I think it's worth it because after the initial £10 cost you save £4 on each picture (unless you go to print tem at boots or somewhere ). I think it's a good idea. Edit: unfortunately, you can't use a USB wristband from one park at another ah well such is life lol.

    Th13teen

    Ah thanks . They were hilarious. They chased people & other people they like picked up their bags and walked away and brought it back haha. Definately improved overall experince of queue but they did something different every time I saw them

    Th13teen

    Hey guys. I just want to let you know, idk how major it is but there is a problem with th13teen ATM. It was broken down most of Thursday and then broke down at the end of yesterday. This morning, we were allowed to queue from 9-12 and weren't told it wasn't going to be open at 10 until half past 10. It never opened. Luckily I got on it yesterday, and was only going to Alton today to try and get on it again. A mechanic came out with his like boots covered in oil and told us that there was a leak with the oil that they had fixed the leak, replaced the oil & were just warming it up. He then went on to say that they were going to test it with the water dummies which did go ahead and actually looked like the ride was running well. We were also told that it's something to do with the hydraulic system. Then, staff came round & told us it would be open very soon and everything was looking good. By this time there was about a 2 hour queue, queueing to get in to the thirteen queue line! They then got rid of most of the queue and told us that the mechanics were on the phone to intamin in Switzerland and that it was unlikely that thirteen would be open today. We were given exit passes though . Sorry if this post isn't paragraphed but I'm posting from my phone.On a plus side, the actors dressed up in the hooded cloak things (idk what they're called) were very funny and helped to pass the time as did the people on stilts. They were fantastic. Thirteen is an amazing ride in my opinion but I thought it was quite short .Also if anyone does know what's wrong with it, I would love to find out so please do let me know .
  16. I actually disagree. I've been to thorpe many times and the only time I have ever been searched was when I was with my friend who looked 'gothy' and had a necklace with like a skull on it, black hair and 'gothy' clothes. Never been searched before, or after then. I don't think it's random, I think it's based on looks.
  17. Lol I have some of mine in a frame in my room 8-| lol. Oh.. I didn't think AP users normally got discounts is this new for this season?Also, If you think about it from a different business point of view if they sold the pictures for like £5 each then people would buy more of them. So instead of what I do by like buying 1 and then scanning it at home & sending it to my friends my friend could buy one too and then they'd get £10. Haha. I do get what you're saying though. Yeah in america they are expensive, but they do good deals like buy one for $7 got another one for $3. & at like Busch Gardens, if you pay $5 more they give you a really nice frame with it. I was expecting them to be much cheaper when I went at christmas though!
  18. I think it is . I think it's taking the mickey really, but then again so is whatever the price is this season.. £7/£8 for a piece of paper is also taking the mickey. I think they should definately make the prices lower, or do a better photo pass deal, 4 pieces of paper for £20 just does not do it for me! In my living room atm I have 12 on ride pictures and many more in other places in my house.. I think I must have paid more for photos than on my annual pass. I know it's not compulsory to buy them but yeah. If I worked in the photo place and saw people taking pictures with their camera I would get annoyed . Does any one on here actually work in any of the photo places? I'd be interested about what the feel about this .
  19. I hope you're joking! He is one of the only celebrities I know that doesn't edit his voice (they used to edit it to make it higher and therefore more controversial 'any publicity is good publicity') and that is why he sounds the same in concert as he does on CD's. He doesn't write his own songs, he gets made to sing songs like that by his manager. Fair enough you can have an opinion & everything, but he is amazing on the drums and on the piano. He is also a talented dancer. This is how good he is at playing an instrument that isn't his voice.clicky.He is amazing there, and seriously good at playing the piano. I do agree with what you say about him writing his songs which would actually be a lot better than all the manufactured rubbish about love, but what's he meant to do? ditch his record deal & his manager Scooter Braun? How would you cope in his position at his age do you think? He does the best he can. He is left scared at times when these obsessive deranged girls obsess over him.. I have witnessed this first hand. These girls grabbed him and ripped his hoodie and when he came out afterwards he was visibly shaken and physically shaking. I feel for him.
  20. Argh! I hate stuff like that It's so unfair.. it should be one rule for one one for all! I kind of understand, except I'm the older sibling. My brother is allowed out like in the dark and he's nearly 12. I'm 15 and I'm not allowed out after it starts getting dark. He is trusted so much more than me. At his age I was allowed to watch 12's.. he threw a strop yesterday so he was allowed to watch an 18.. let me mention I am still not allowed to do so. I hate being a sibling in general really haha.Also, I love you for saying that! Seriously.. we need more people like you in the world instead of these non-beliebers. I hate hate hate HATE when people say stuff about Justin when they have just 'heard it from a friend' or have been extremely misinformed. People say he's stuck up himself but all the times I have met him, he has been lovely. Always stopped, talked, did pictures. Even when he was ill. I really wish people would stop hating on him! Especially seeing as he is only 16 and he has learnt to not listen to haters any more but still it's extremely rude.I'd like to see bieber haters having the guts to do what he does and do it well for that matter. He must have so much pressure on his shoulders but I'm sure none of you haters think about that when you're saying he 'sounds like a girl', that may have been true when he was younger but his voice has broken now.. Get with it haha. If he sounds so terrible why does he have nearly 2 million followers on twitter. Really?! *rant over*

    SAW: Alive

    After that I saw the photo booth ahead and realised it was the end. It was very anti-climatic. Throughout the maze there was not a single clever effect or scare moment. Not worth queueing too much for. thank you very much . Can't believe I was so scared if all the actresses do is yell boo :/.
