The Smiler Incident 02/06/2015
I believe that is exactly what has happened. Gerts will have a log of exactly what has happened in the control room so will know if that's the case anyway.

The Smiler Incident 02/06/2015
Is that near the shop? Looks like some sort of access gate, so maybe to make sure no-one climbs over it?

Project WC16 - New for 2016
Having seen bending schedules for the reinforcement, there is a heck of a lot of rebar on the project - but then, it's a bloody big building so I guess that's to be expected. Expect some exciting photos of steel reinforcement and mesh on site mid June #hotgossip

Your Plans for 2015
We're off to Disney Orlando on the 18th April for 2 weeks - booked up a good handful of rides on Fastpass+... any tips/must dos? By all accounts from sites I've looked at, it shouldn't be toooo busy, the 2nd week we are there is one of the 8 "best weeks" to visit. Also added on the three park ticket for Universal. I'm not an HP fan but my girlfriend is, even so I reckon I'll be seriously impressed with the park. Been looking at the app for wait times - Seven Dwarves Mine Train seems to get up to 140 min wait time, but then it is new... We've booked some restaurants too at Disney, Be My Guest, German Beerkeller, English pub (for the lolz) and the Sci-Fi Movie Drive In restaurant. Needless to say - we can't wait for our trip. Dreamliner plane too!

Chessington General Discussion
There goes a flying pig... Vampire certainly sounds like some sort of big problem/fault - but the other rides, not so much...

Whatever the state of the forum - whether turbulent times, or awesome times, you can rely on one thing. I'll hold on to everyone's bags.

Chessington General Discussion
From Chessington's Facebook - no Vampire until further notice. Let the complaints commence! "Hello Adventurers, due to some unexpected maintenance issues, Griffin’s Galleon, Bubbleworks, Rameses Revenge and Dragon’s Fury will not be operational until the weekend of 21st and 22nd of March. We are working very hard to have these rides up and running as soon as possible. Unfortunately Vampire will also be out of action until further notice due to a delay in receiving essential parts. We are working with the manufacturers to have this rectified as soon as possible, but in the meantime we apologise for any disappointment this might cause. We look forward to welcoming you all very soon to enjoy Year of the Penguins. Be sure to watch our Penguins of Madagascar Live! Operation Cheezy Dibbles, our brand new show!"

Vampire
Rameses new cattle pen queue? Srsly? Any pictures? Top marks for some of the posts regarding this new Vampire addition - made me spit out my coffee. I particularly liked the idea of painting some animals on it and putting up some adverts for the hotel Vampire: Voyage into the Jungle!

Chessington General Discussion
If Scorpion is shut too, that's more like 4 main attractions in my eyes along with Dragon's Fury, Bubbleworks and Vampire!

Chessington General Discussion
Anyone want to stick up for Merlin on this one? Absolutely astounding, 3 of the top attractions at the park shut on opening day. The fact it's an off-peak day today is not a viable excuse. I hope no more rides close or there'll be no space left on that sign...

Official TPM Guildford Meet 2015
I used to be a Cambo (well Farnborough) resident for all my years until 2 years ago and am now in Southsea - however, went back to Cambo to see friends last year and ate in Wildwood and was impressed. Free candy floss too
