  1. £48 is kinda crazy, but I've never ever paid full price, always used BOGOF or similar (I'm not a MAP holder, so shoot me )
  2. Thanks for the review and pictures on the previous page! My gf isn't a coaster fan at all HOWEVER, she wants to go this year purely because a Wallace & Gromit ride exists there. Winner... I've always wanted to go to BPB!
  3. This thread is becoming more exciting and dramatic than Danny Dyer taking over the Queen Vic!
  4. As soon as the frosts have finished for winter, I have pleasure in confirming that TPM will be growing a flower bed celebrating 10 years, similar to this one....
  5. Just to say - skate prices are confirmed as £5.90 and £1.90 for skate hire Looking forward to this, 3 and a bit weeks to go! If anyone is heading up from Portsmouth I'll be getting the train as I say
  6. Benin got votes from me
  7. It's all a bit of mess really isn't it? SBNO everywhere. Merlin will want to forget 2013 in a hurry :\

    My Dad's house backs on to the lake - well, pond officially - in Fleet (Hart - #1) It's nice, but there's not a heck of a lot going on!
  9. Sidders - you got my vote for Sexiest Male, just sayin' I think my lack of MAP affected my votes so imma gonna go have a hissy fit now and never go to a meet agaaaaaiiiiiiinnnnnnnnnnnn!
  10. Good stuff Looking forward to the official meet and unofficial plans after!
  11. Yep I have been forever MAPless I can't be a true fanboi

    Inspired by pluk, I just purchased a 70cl bottle of Sailor Jerry, Jack Daniels Honey and Gentleman Jack - £56 Well, it is Christmas and they were all cheaper than they usually are - mysupermarket.co.uk told me the info
  13. Hmmm - I reckon it'll open mid-season from that... if Scorpion Valley looks good and RR is back, then I shall have to go back to CWoA in 2014
  14. Out of interest is anyone likely to stay in Guildford after 6pm for a drink or two?
  15. I'm going to actually vote this year
  16. I think this will either be brilliant or awful, sincerely hope it's the first as Chessie needs it. As has been said though, be wary of the PR speak! At least Scorpion Valley fits in with having Rattlesnake located there too
  17. Yep - I wouldn't even consider it at £40... I did question it at £18 but like Josh says - it's bloomin' heavy and does feel "quality" - I couldn't tell you the last piece of merch I bought prior to my Smiler goodies... maybe a reduced Colossus mouse mat about 10 years ago?! I just don't normally buy merch, or ORPs either for that matter - personal preference and all that! I bought the cushion because it matches our sofa so would look good in our flat. Having a bit of involvement with The Smiler because of supplying reinforcement steel there, perhaps I felt a little more inclined to buy something... that said, I did the same for SAW, Thirteen and Swarm but obviously wasn't impressed enough with their merch to buy any - maybe I was marmalised by Smiler Shop TV
  18. I can't really grumble at the price of the food and the quality at Merlin parks from what I've tried... have had a kebab from Thorpe which was nice, rotisserie chicken from Legoland which I thought was particularly good, bacon cheeseburger from Alton Towers which tasted fresh and a "decent" burger... I don't have a MAP but even without, I didn't think the prices were a rip off particularly. On a different note - I bought a Smiler cushion and paperweight from Alton in October because they were marked down - the paperweight was £18 reduced from £40 (can't believe people bought them at that price!) and the cushion was £15.
  19. I'm sorry I just really don't get this at all... they could do with a few more high throughput rides instead of another hotel. Revamp Bubbleworks... sort out the queue line for Vampire... Of course, if any of this happens as well as the hotel, I'll take it back. 2014 is certainly the year of the "hotel" for Merlin...
  20. Agree. I won't be going to Chessie next year unless Ramases is back.
  21. http://www.chessington.com/our-hotel/azteca-hotel-register-confirm.aspx What Chessington really needs I think, is another hotel... brilliant idea.
  22. THIS. The amount of "smaller things" £15m on a new coaster could fix and make for happier guests... and happier guests mean guests that are more likely to spend out on ORPs, food, merchandise... and come back!
  23. Do we know that Ramases is definitely coming back for 2014? I mean, we would assume it is but....!
