  1. I actually left the queue once to try the Tombs, this was of course after I had already visited The Dungeons.It's not cheap at all, infact, The Dungeons looks cheap compared to The Tombs.
  2. I have to say, if there is anything I like about Wild Asia, it's the new theme of the Admissions Area's it's brought with it.That is all.

    Happy Birthday to Me!

    Templeman on the Microsite, and your Birthday printed on the wall.I see a coincidental pattern emerging.

    None of them are new though, they're newest one is 8 months old itself. If that's new to you, then what's old?

    That's why I said one of *Royalty Free SFX

  8. The Team were dispatching very very quickly, especially when it was on 2 trains, so the queue was okay.It didn't matter to me as we were all having fun anyway!
  9. Yeah they did brilliantly yesterday.All the queues were also quite short too, longest queue was an hour for Air, but it was on one train when we joined, and 20 minutes into the queue the second train was rolled out!

    8 months is a very long time.......
  11. I Forgot to mention The Park was open 10am - 5pm yesterday!
  12. StevenVig replied to Phill's topic in Nonsense
    That is one of the oldest videos ever made.
  13. It's brilliant. Though alot of people expect it to be like sort of one big walkthrough horror maze. It's not, yes there are a few scares, but it's more a sort of Staged, Bloody History of London. It is well worth a visit though, I've gone about 17 times on my Current Annual Pass.If you want a long, walkthrough Horror Maze that will scare you senseless, exactly opposite The Dungeons is The London Tombs. Go There for a Scare!
  14. Well I had an amazing time at the Towers yesterday, with Peter Fairweather, his sister, his sisters bf, and Dan Oblivion.I'm still too tired to make a detailed post like rich's, so I'll keep it simple.It was my first trip ever to The Towers, so I was eccstatic about going, my first ride of 2010 was Heave Ho! which was feeling a little tired imo, it was cold so I'll give it some credit. Second ride was Mauraders Mayhem, I still think you can get a better ride on Storm in a Teacup, but I do like the themeing and especially the Smoke Machine!I cant actually remember what we did after that, in detail, so I'll just list all the rides I went on.AirNemesis (nearly typed Inferno then!)Oblivion x2Sonic SpinballRunaway Mine Train ("Choo Choo, oh yeah!" Though she wasnt there yesterday. other staff members tried it, but didnt live up to her standard)Singing BarnDoodle Do DerbyHexDuel x3Twirling ToadstoolThe BladeMonorailAir is a good ride, though others will disagree. However, I think the interior section could/should be themed, even though it's short, a plain concrete hut just doesnt do it for me.Nemesis completely owns Inferno, inside out. The ride has alot more force, last's longer and is generally just much better. After riding this, Inferno is nothing.Oblivion is now my favourite ride at the park, although it would seem the holding brake isn't as long as it used to be. I love the force that your up against as you're released. Absolutely brilliant it was.Sonic Spinball, wouldn't call it useless, but theres just nothing there. Queueline ball game things are a nice touch, as are the Ring Collection SFX, but the ride itself is a letdown. It's all about Fury!Hex was just dizzying, but I loved it!Duel hurts my fingers, as do all Laser Shooting Games, but had a good few jumps here and there, my third go, I just pulled my hat down my face and went to sleep, that was fun.Twirling Toadstools, again, nothing like Billy's Whizzer (Monkey Swinger), no force, doesnt go as high, but an advantage here is that there are no Water JetsThe Blade was alright, stands in the middle of Banana (Thorpe) and Buccaneer (CWoA)Monorail was bumpy, is it meant to be? But I loved this too, saves me a hell lot of walking.We all also visited the Hotel, Peter bought a coke for £1.44, which is alright I guess. A Lush Hotel, with a great view of the waterpark from the lobby. The Bucket in Splash Landings is amazing too, takes a while to fill up though. After Peters drink, we all went to the Arcade, I told Peter not to spend his money on the Fruit Machines as he gets carried away, yet he ended up spending all the change he had! Which included my petrol money! I also embarrased myself on the Dancemat, EuroMix 2 if anyone wants the techy details. Got an E on that, got an F on the last one with Keith I think? Dan got a B.Then we went to Tescos, saw BOGOF on Easter Eggs for £2, Me, Dan & Peter then went to KFC, I never did get that crispy strip delivered to me in the end. meh.We finally headed back to the car for sleepy times, more theme park/club music, Peter and his Easter Egg, and a failing TV on my iPhone!EPIC DAY!

    I Saw "Wicked - A New Musical" yesterday, finally.It was by far one of the best Musicals I have ever seen. Really want to go again, and I will!
  21. StevenVig replied to Marc's topic in Nonsense
    Yes you be right! But I bet your awesome vision didn't tell you that I have both albums in that pile, All We Know Is Falling & Riot! Riot! Riot! ofc. He's ****ing hot

    During Open Season, seeing all the visible rides in operation wouldn't be boring for me, just a helpless but enjoyable distraction.
  23. That old website is hauling back so many memories! Good find! :PI too must agree with Keith though, as much as I love the old website. The current website is professional, has a friendly UI, and is just generally very tidy.Compare it to Thorpe Park's, which just looks like it's exploded.

    Wanna bet? You need permission to breathe there.
