Listening to music lately, I've really come to notice how ridiculous, odd, and obvious some of the lyrics are. Post some of the stupidest, obvious and misheard music lyrics you've heard here, and let's just see how odd the world of song writing is
 
I'll start:
This is a song by Scooter, can't remember the song's name though:
 
It's not a bird, it's not a plane. It must be Dave, who's on the train.

Such a shame, it's a large space, could be put to much better use :/

The funny thing is, I wouldn't be too surprised if they actually did try to pass off some random new water feature as a "new, improved storm surge" xD

More Monk's Walk geekery - unsurprisingly not a lot has changed since James' photo. The construction fences look as if they've taken a battering in the recent winds...
 

 
Still no sign of Carousel demolition, but already they've opened up a big area with the flattening of Fungle Safari - there must be something else due to occupy some of this space, aside from the 2016 Dark Ride, surely...?
 
More photos over at Total Thorpe Park!

Some construction photos if anyone wanted to see them:

Cool Well, if there's no car then we can be South West Trains buddies for the evening!

If it's a Sunday I will be training it back too as Ian now lives in London! But if it's a Saturday and we're heading back to Portsmouth I'll ask Ian. Just as long as it's not the 17th, as his car is being serviced that day.

I should be OK for 18th!
 
I'll train it up there and back unless Smidget and Ian fancy giving me a lift back again (Thanks muchly for that last time!)
 
PRO TIP: If we are going to go for a meal in the evening, we should ring at lunch time to book for the evening. That was fun last year, trying to get 13 of us in to any of Guildford's restaurants last minute

And his name is LC, I think you're on to something...
 

Lol this thread made me laugh, great entertainment for a Friday night...
I have this image of LC stood outside Pizza Pasta next year with a placard stating "Bring back Pizza Hut, Merlin suck" whilst having paid for his MAP and entered a place he seemingly hates...
There are plenty of rides better than what you get at Thorpe over in Europe, in parks that provide a better overall experience... Save your money, don't buy a MAP, go to these other parks and then everyone's happier...

I wonder if there'll be anything new next year?

I seriously find it hard to believe that it's not butter!
 
But in all seriousness you need to invest in some Rose-Tinted glasses.

I'm not sure I quite understand either, when Domino's is clearly much better

Merlin have purchased Tussauds debt as well as their rides. That level of investment was never going to continue, no matter who owned it.
 
If you don't like the food, don't buy the food. Simple. If others enjoy it, let them. I'm not quite sure I understand the point of your crusade, are you a Jehovah's or something? I expect to see you knocking on my door thrusting a pizza hut menu into my hand.

Also, you moan that the cost of eating there is too expensive for a student. If you have money worries about eating there anyway, why don't you bring your own packed lunch and then you won't have to salvage Thorpe's apparent '****ty' food, as well as not wasting money on food you obviously don't want.

I should be able to attend because work should be dead so I (hopefully!) won't have to worry about that. As usual I'll let ya know nearer the time (or like, the same week. Maybe the day before. Whenever).
 

We've just worked it out - Pizza and Pasta Buffet in place of Pizza Hut

Thorpe are not happy that enthuiasts are not excited for the 2015 wooden coaster ahh well topspin it is

Angry Birds was done in about 5 minutes, so you never know...

That poor boat

I was on one in this pic...
 

 
I can't imagine why the thing decided not to float at the bottom of the drop with us 4 in there! But as has been said, it is possible to lift your feet and avoid the worst of it in a log in but not on SS. And the boat drains quickly so it's never really a problem.
 
 
So Thorpe are well aware there is a pretty serious problem with the ride and has been for FIVE seasons, and those guys are STILL doing nothing about it.

Yup funnily enough I would! Thanks for asking.

I imagine it's a portal into the fifth dimension. 

Oh, thanks! It's pretty scratched as you'd expect so it was hard to make out what it is. I'll be able to sleep at night now.
