ThumbRemote - many thanks for a detailed post/trip report, it's always interesting (and, very much concerning) to see a theme park without perhaps the rose-tinted spectacles of a theme park fan (although some could argue that the "fans" are far more cutting and unforgiving!) It sounds like a particularly awful day out you've had - again, that's a real shame to read as I have a fondness for CWoA with awesome memories from the early 90s!

What the... I don't even... no words. You being serious, or are you taking the p....?
-
I haven't seen them use the Fasttrack queues at all this year but in Thorpe Park's defence I haven't visited this year.
-
Do you think they'll play any Carly Rae Jepsen? Asking for a friend. (Also - worth booking on early bird d'ya think?)
-
They apparently used my bit on 5 Live earlier #soproud
-
BBC Radio 5 Live are doing a piece on the ticket mess up during drive time tonight
-
Thorpe have been silent on Twitter for the last 20 odd minutes following this
-
I'll buy 2 for 13p each?
-
It wasn't even 0959... it was a good 5 minutes before 10 and they'd gone! Normally with timed release of tickets (Ticketmaster etc.) you expect them to go on at 0959-1002.
-
I'm going on 11th May whatever happens but this would've been a nice bonus - I wouldn't be grumbling if I'd not nabed one and they'd gone on sale at 10am like they were supposed to
-
I was refreshing but didn't see the code box appear at the bottom of the screen until about 9.56. Already too late. And 4 minutes early. Thorpe Park can't even get this right.
-
Lots of unhappy people on that there Twitter already. Bravo, Merlin, bravo!
-
Amazing, all gone already apparently?! It's not even 10am.
-
I'm loitering on the website as I'm not an AP holder, so this offer is ideal
-
Becky and I shall attend then :-)
-
How many pages will this thread get to before we have any further actual news other than the SW8 fences at AT? I reckon 30.
-
Haha Even humble bag holders do get tid-bits of information sometimes...
-
Is that... a train carri.... Oh forget it.
-
In the words of Alan Partridge - lovely stuff! (That tarmac doesn't look complete to me, personally)
-
The photo updates from around the park from TowersStreet make for depressing viewing - fences, fences and more fences
-
The abandoned/destroyed theme is a tried and tested Merlin favourite and means that any neglect in the future just adds to theming Props though for the entrance to the area - that gate and metal logo does look awesome.
-
Agreed - on the one visit to Thorpe last year, the IAC music in the Nemesis queue (well, that 20 second bit of it repeated ad nauseum) did annoy me. The Nemesis launch used to be so awesome too.

Thanks Josh for the clarification Old Town sort of equates to "rides that don't really tie in together whatsoever"
