  1. How do you think the already amazing Chessington could be improved? :)Whether it's just something small you've noticed, or if its something that's been bugging you for a while, Share it. :DPersonally-I would like Vampire's Track to be repainted and possibly the tunnel to be "fixed"Your turn...

    Vampire is pretty much perfect the way it is in terms of ride experience!Apart from a few minor modifications aesthetically I don't want it to be changed.

    Woo :)Go TPM

    Yep, thats exactly how it is at my school, I think it happens to a lot of people My best mates like the people who are ****** ***** to me and yet everyone else in the school can see them for what they are. I just want to slap my friends around the face and say look, but they will never see it.

    :)Just try and completely seal yourself away from her, she sounds like a complete ***** and you don't need her as a friend.

    I know how you feel, but things get better , you'll see.I used to hang around with a group, but this new kid came along and started telling all my best friends crap about me so they then hated me, was the worst time of my life and I can't imagine ever being that unhappy again, it was a lot more detailed/worse than that but thats the jist of it, but after a few months things do start to pick up.Keep going Ste You'll be fine
  7. One thing I'm not keen on in particular is how this + and - thing works.For example I think it's a great idea if people are being fair with it, however I've got a -1 reputation and I am completely stumped as to why.
  8. Awesome Trip report , thanks! :)Not good to hear that Colossus is having problems though.However is great to hear Quantum is running well, went on it my last visit and was dissapointed with a short cycle.It's a shame you feel the Nando's incident detracted from your day
  9. I always thought Beanoland had such an amazing atmosphere, like most of Chessington to be honest.But Beanoland really did have that extra little bit of something, you could always hear kids laughing or running in the fountains and it was just a very happy, awesome area

    It is possible, but much more unlikely at Thorpe.Knott's Berry Farm apparently has very poor maintenance of it's rides, if this is the reason for Stealth's downtime, good of Thorpe to check it out.That truely is a horrible accident, look at the way the seat is knocked forwards on the way back down.
  12. I must say, I do love the look of the new skin, but it, at first seems a bit harder to navigate.Probably because I was just used to the old one and I'm sure with time I'll get just as familiar with this one.Well Done !
  13. Adrenalin Week has been confirmed again for this year, where the park opening has been extended by a week with reduced opening hours and slightly reduced ride line up.I for one can't wait as it's usually a safe bet to go as it's likely to be quiet, I'm hoping to go on the 7th, the final day of the season
  14. Ah wow, really sounds like the perfect way to send off an excellent area, wished I could have been able to make it.
  15. *Ignoring*Was anyone at the Piefest today ?How did it go?
  16. To be honest I understood you, what I didn't understand is how that , in your opinion, makes it smooth. Nemesis Inferno is one of the smoothest coaster's around, with 7 cars/rows per train...
  17. I really wanted to be stuck but sadly I didn't :)I know one person who did actually get stuck, the majority didn't though.
  18. I'm very very sorry but this doesn't make sense, does it to anyone else."The reason Saw is smooth is because there's only one car on the track..."First of all Saw is renowned for being "Bumpy" and how can it be "smooth" if it's "rough" and "hurts your neck."The inside bit is also thought of as the best bit of the ride with the outside bit being quite unoriginal.I think I'm going to stop there...
  19. I think everyone's going to miss it :)It was a great area.
  20. I am! :)Thanks very much, I'll let everyone know how I get on

    A couple of years ago broke my wrist, and at the moment suffering from some mild back problems. :)Both caused by football! :)With my wrist I had a long wire put in and they then pulled it out without any anasthetic, most painful thing of my life!I also ended up at Thorpe Fright Nights with a cast on that year
  22. Thats great to hear you had an excellent time and that everyone's tips helped :)It is really helpful to have some guidance, especcially on your first time.About the card frame thing, I would simply send a letter to them telling them how good a day you had mentioning all the little details and how you can't wait to go back, then at the end that your distraught your photo got damaged and was wondering if another could be sent.That is what I would do :)Good luck.
  23. I agree that it probably increased the dispatch times slightly, but whenever I have been to Thorpe and SRQ on Saw hasn't been in operation, there were often 2 and sometimes even 3 empty seats every ride.I just wish one had been installed in the first place, from the parks perspective it is probably best for Saw not to have a SRQ however much I wish it would work well on it.
  24. The amount of empty seats on every ride when SRQ is not in operation is a joke to be honest.
  25. Again? :)Oh I never actually got a chance to use it.
