That was top secret information.

The Smiler Incident 02/06/2015
Vicky Balch is back in the papers today doing a nude photoshoot because obviously a lingerie shoot wasn't enough publicity...

Platform 15 can't come back because Loggers is reopening this year.

Paultons Park
I hate to be defeatist but you may find that the X7 doesn't get you there early enough if you are a member of staff.

Closed Season
They are definitely sorting out some foundations in Old Town as those rows of triangular shaped long wire things (called continuous wire chairs) that you can see below the boat are used in concrete slabs. I only know this as it's my job haha.

Stealth
Yes would agree that's just pretty unlucky with Stealth - she's normally quite well behaved!

Thorpe Farm
Slightly off topic but I genuinely keep thinking this topic is "Thorpe Fam"

Your first Thorpe Park ride
Would've been Flying Fish or Loggers back in the olden days when you risked injury from the bushes on the Flying Fish haha That queue line never really felt like you were queuing, you just felt you were in a garden centre No loitering on the bridge please! Also - I've been sick on backwards X. Too many chocolate buttons before riding - believe me, that exit took FOREVER when you can feel the chunder a-coming....

Blackpool Pleasure Beach
As a supplier of reinforcement mesh and bar, that's one intense mesh double layer there just waiting for concrete, lads.

Alton Towers General Discussion
Do you think they'll remove the signage and characters on the Ice Age building if it's SBNO? Did they do that for Charlie last year? I spy more fences to hide the closures...

Alton Towers General Discussion
Very odd in the current climate to spend money on something one year for it to be SBNO the next...

Derren Brown's Ghost Train: Rise of the Demon
<5/10.... so maybe 4.5? In other news, I propose it a ban-worthy offence to refer to this ride as DBGT, it is now DBGTROTD.

Derren Brown's Ghost Train: Rise of the Demon
I'M STOKED. The "new" name just sounds tacked on to me - probably like the new ending in the converted bit of the shop? Disclaimer: I still think the themeing, grandure of the train itself and the shop is awesome, so I've never been totally negative about DBGTROTD.

TPM Guildford Meet 21st January 2017
My cousin on FaceyB! He was supposed to go to Turtle Bay last night for a party but that's closed too - he said that the place is flooded from rainwater from the broken roof.

Alton Towers General Discussion
I would hazard a guess that perhaps those removed from the website are gone for good, whilst NST is perhaps undecided, in a Loggers Leap style predicament. I think they should just admit defeat with NST to be honest and replace it with an HB Leisure side show Good to have Hex back though EDIT: Just realised - Didn't Ice Age have some "TLC" done to it recentlyish? What was the point of that if it's shut...

The Gruffalo River Ride Adventure
That. Is. Amazing. The VR queue time board is so realistic it almost looks like it's a real manually operated plastic hand on a clockface

Logger's Leap
Yep that tallies up with what my Stealth breaking buddy @Mitchada04 said a few posts up
