Most rumours about a closed season repaint for a ride in the world.

Gonna get that printed up on a canvas in the shopping centre, ideal Christmas gift.

Very sorry to hear this news, a real shame but to be expected really (unfortunately). One would assume that Sub Terra won't be opening for 2017...I would hope Hex does as that is a genuinely decent all-round attraction, and very much "Alton Towers". I actually quite enjoyed CATCF when I rode a few years ago but can't really agree that the "lack of family attractions" argument quite stacks up considering there's CBeebies Land, Spinball, Mine Train, Rapids etc. that I would count as family rides, personally!

Being slightly older at the ripe old age of 33 - when discussing TPM with my other half, I was saying how bloody brilliant it is that the younger members on here are so cool and fluid with what sexuality they are or might be, and so open about it, it's incredibly refreshing to see how different it appears to be now vs. when I was in school in the late 90s - I'm not saying that there isn't homophobia and hate at school/college/life any more - nor am I saying that my school was particularly vilifying against it at the time - but just comments on here in general and being so open about sexuality is awesome Or to put it as posted previously - it's great that it's not becoming a "thing" anymore, that's how it should be.

Thorpe Park x2 - which I thoroughly enjoyed both times - with the exception of DBGT MOS was a frankly awesome day - all 18 hours of it. Quality of visits to Thorpe, not quantity is the key Tulleys Farm x1 if that counts, which was my first time and flippin' fantastic.

It's because Merlin love having flumes SBNO, they are even considering putting an extra flume in at Chessington during closed season just so they can leave it to rot for a year The SW8 posters look nice though innit.

Best thing I've read on here in ages. Genius.

No it won't, hope this helps

Opened in 1995, Ramases Revenge has been a firm favourite amongst families and young adults. As a result of many years of operation, Ramases Revenge is out of action for 2017 while it’s being renovated. This was a difficult decision to make, however we hope for it to make a splash-back in the future. Lolz. Only joking lads. I love RR - bless her (and Merlin) for holding on for 21 years of service... I honestly can't see RR being replaced with another Top Spin when she is finally retired.

Looks like the right size for a train carriage to me.

The latter is 100% exactly what will happen - I doubt it'll even be shoehorned in, nothing will change apart from the sign from the outside

That's two Loggers bets on now - I said I'd buy a MAP!

Luckily DBGT is going nowhere so I'm alright for the moment.

When he's working, obvs

I think your top 2 is the same as mine - trouble is, all the mazes (with the exception of Hellements) were really good! I'd love to know how long we were in Colony for but we just couldn't believe the size of the thing and different elements to it! Awesome. Can't beat the smell of a bonfire too

When someone has only 7 posts, one of which was casually dropping the Minds Wanted website - before anyone even knew it existed - we must all appreciate the gravity of his message.

THIS IS NOT A DRILL. Let the speculation begin. Wicked Witches Haunt VR coming 2018 on site of Loggers Leap?

Ah mannn, your review makes me want to go again Amy! What is the proper name for the black squishy things? They were used to good effect in Coven & Cellar - with Coven, it made it look like everyone was just floating heads because of the laser! Chop Shop was by far my fave - as I said elsewhere, ended up split up from my group and then was sandwiched between two chainsaw guys haha - and that part of the maze is very disorientating, for sure - went round in circles a few times "WRONG WAYYYY PIGGYYYY" still rings in my ears

Reading the FN reviews thus far make me glad to be swerving it this year - by contrast, I can honestly say that out of 8 haunts at Tulleys, only Hellements was poor - even the other haunts that were supposed to be less scary/intense ticked all the boxes for me. I think the minimum amount of actors I saw in a "haunt" was 6 or 7 from memory! That aside though - the rides at Thorpe do look particularly good this year lit up at night!

On the plus side though... Was the preshow still working? Sounds a right mess. Understand from Jessica on park it's broken down this evening... And when she got back on after 40 minutes it broke again.

U not heard about Topspin Island coming 2017 m8?

Just call me Jart. Again.

Thorpe in attempt at Fright Nights theming shock

Could this thread be moved to the UK Attractions area for more visibility? :-)

Don't worry the sooner closed season is here, the sooner we can get back on Loggers Leap in 2017!
