  1. Just keeping an eye on Chessington's availability as we are heading there on Tuesday next week - Ramases showing as unavailable today, just some work being done or something major? Hope she's available this time next week. Tomb Blaster showing as closed too today!
  2. I'm off to Chessie two weeks today - just out of interest, does anyone know what the flip is up with Safari Skyway, out of interest?
  3. Maybe they just fancied cutting the grass?
  4. I'm looking forward to seeing the Smiler again now my annual trip to AT is planned for 21st October. Will give it more than 1 ride this year too I think Can't wait to be greeted by that twisted mess of track again - station aside, it does look impressive and imposing!
  5. Yep we went the first week of Scarefest last year, and with the exception of the Smiler which had a bit of a queue first thing, it was so dead! We're going this year on October 21st I personally wouldn't recommend buying any Fastrack whatsoever, but then I hate it with the fire of a thousand suns
  6. And 2nd Detty Tower confirmed.
  7. Do you mind, that's Merlin's finest themeing you're talking about
  8. They'd even gone to the effort of weighting down some of the crisp packets to stop them blowing away (so someone could come and pick them up)...
  9. Going back to the grammar complaints - "would of" incorrectly used in place of "would have" (or could of/could have) seems to be the new your/you're that grinds my gears That, and the fact when I went down to Southsea beach yesterday evening for a little swim, the fact that rubbish was just left on the beach when there are bins within eyesight. Picked it up like a good citizen. People make me sick...
  10. New vending machines... in a shipping container? So beautiful.
  11. Prefer these to Thorpe's - but even that said, Thorpe's new ones are miles and above better than the previous scrolling LED versions
  12. There's no doubt about it, you will get wet!
  13. EXCLUSIVE: 2015 will see Rumba rethemed as Rusty Rapids, with numerous shipping containers and rusty metal scattered around the ride, and the dark section rethemed to a warehouse - who knows what rusty theming lies within! Dare you brave the orange waters of Rusty Rapids?
  14. I'm sure everyone knows but Stealth station has a little countdown timer presumably as a target for quick dispatch. Any reason why Stealth has this but no other ride does? Or is it just that Stealth has the only visible timer (Saw has one too thinking about it, but that's partially for theming reasons and normally isn't synced right anyway...!)
  15. The worst thing is when you see grammatical errors (normally apostrophes) on professionally made signs. I would've thought grammar and spelling would be a pre-requisite
  16. To add to fastrack discussion - I've never bought one, and never would, out of principle. Kaithanxbai.
  17. I did check my post many times for typos before posting
  18. "Your" and "you're" are two different words. Any argument online where the wrong one is used renders said person's argument null and void
  19. Right, I can't do 2nd as Becky is playing Southsea Show but I could do the 9th and stay over
  20. I feel your pain, fellow oldie.
  21. I'll have to hold on for whenever the Paulton's trip is I think, unfortunately!
  22. When do we reckon the date/destination will be decided! I don't want to double book a weekend in August 23rd & 24th weekend is a no go for us already as Becky is playing at Victorious Festival in Portsmouth
  23. Just watched the video of The Roller - I think I'm about to lose my breakfast just from watching Not my cup of tea at all haha.
