  1. ^ You could but these incidents definitely seem to happen a lot more at Pleasure Beach Blackpool than anywhere else...
  2. ^ Indeed! At the time I was quite disappointed but now, on reflection, I can't believe it!

    Argh, 2 double posts in one day Here you can see Rodeo's area in it's current state. Depressing and exactly as it's been since it was removed in 2004.
  4. I rode this for the first time since the re-theme and whilst I loved it, it didn't used to be that wet did it? 10 O' Clock in the morning and I was absolutely drenched! It definitely didn't used to be that wet
  5. Don't you just hate double posting?Anyway, here is some leftover tracks from the railway, there were these ones but also clearer ones that ran parallel to Ramases' exit.

    I thought that the organist was much improved with the new lighting, and I couldn't decide which lighting I preferred for the rest of the station, in terms of green or red. Still looked awesome though Sorry for the poor picture quality.
  7. Be aware anyone visiting soon that none of the queue boards for rides are working, staff are friendly as always though and you can just ask them, which is to be honest, more accurate anyway.
  8. Amazing Weekend at Chessington ;)Chessington 5th June , took 3 1/2 hours to get there, stupid M25! Anyway was there from 3.30 till 6.30 7x Dragons Fury5 x Rattlesnake 2x Vampire Chessington 6th June, was there from 9.30 till 16x Dragons Fury5x Rattlesnake 1x Runaway Train1x Tomb Blaster2x Vampire 1x Ramases Revenge 2x Kobra1x Monkey Swinger1x Bubbleworks
  9. ^ Ah thanks very much ;)Looks like I'll be heading straight to WDS, and can't believe it's only a bit over a month now
  10. ^ Agreed, the theme music is actually one of the few things that actually keeps the atmosphere at Thorpe so it's not physically unbearable.
  11. Yes, worlds first "Robocoaster" made my KUKA.

    Twist and Pulse are awesome
  13. James6 replied to Dan9's topic in UK Attractions
    Wasn't Fury closed for most of that day too ? That and the need for the 3rd train I would guess would cause that kind of queue
  14. ^ I have no idea who you are ;)Anyway, welcome Dan and couldn't agree more about the whole Thorpe sucking and Chessington kicking ass
  15. James6 replied to Sheepie's topic in UK Attractions
    Is the snake still only turning one direction ?And personal preference, but I still prefer riding this and Duel without even using the gun.
  16. ^ Couldn't agree more, fun rides are in my opinion at least, better than purely thrilling coasters. And that's what Europa seems to do so well have a lot of fun rides but some that are also thrilling.I guess that's one reason why I really like Th13teen.
  17. ^ No-one would live there, I'd assume it would be used to store gardening equipment.
  18. Air

    James6 replied to Dan9's topic in UK Attractions
    Air was a surprise for me yesterday, I found it a lot better than usual being quicker, more forceful and with a few pops of "air" () It's a great ride but I really don't usually enjoy it as much as I did yesterday. ;)Not only that but the ride team was working fantastically with the next train being dispatched before the previous was even on the break run.
  19. James6 replied to Sheepie's topic in UK Attractions
    I don't think I've seen it work at all this season sadly
  20. Despite Thirteen being unavailable, an absolutely phenomenal day.3x Nemesis2x Rita3x Oblivion2x Air1x Duel1x Charlie1x Spinball1x Skyride1x Monorail1x Runaway TrainSorry, bit tired for a big ol' report.
  21. James6 replied to Sheepie's topic in UK Attractions
    Guys I'm sure the ride will be nice and reliable as soon as all it's kinks are sorted out ;)A lot seemed to be going on behind closed doors on Thirteen though today.
  22. James6 replied to Sheepie's topic in UK Attractions
    To be honest Ryan, I'd expect it to open later in the day. There are rumours of the trims being converted from magnetic to mechanical. so this is what they may be doing which could, hopefully improve the ride.

    *crys*

    Ugh, trip tomorrow and just seen on Alton's website that Thirteen is unavailable Gutted.
