15 minutes from my house, yes please

Went today and had possibly the best day I've had at Thorpe in terms of ride counts. X:/ No Way Out - 5 Saw - 4 The Swarm - 3 Tidal Wave - 3 Colossus - 3 Rush - 2 Nemesis Inferno - 2 Stealth - 1 Vortex - 1 Zodiac - 1 Detonator - 1 Storm Surge - 1 Rumba Rapids - 1

How busy will it be on Tuesday?

Actually.. do you think the Friday will be any less busy? As it will be the last day of term and I doubt schools would host a school trip then.. it might just be me trying to be hopeful but is it a possibility?

great, will miss that one out then hahah! thank you

Sunday wasn't too busy, did all major rides. Going next thursday, day before the last day of term... school trips galore I'm guessing!!! Anyone know how big queues will be that day?

Going tomorrow (Sunday 8 July)... I know it's a weekend so queues are going to be big but with Wireless Festival going on and unreliable weather, what do you think queues will be like overall? Don't worry, I'm not expecting them to be under an hour hahaha

One of them songs that just gets you excited.

I'm meant to be going this week coming but my mum is busy for some reason so she's talking about going on the last week of term, I'm on study leave but people will still be at school - do you think the queues will get longer on that week as it's the last week for a lot of people? therefore they'd skip school and come to Thorpe Park? Should I try and persuade her to just go this week?

Hey everyone! Florida was absolutely epic. My favourite park was Islands of Adventure, and surprisingly, I think my favourite ride was Jurassic Park: River Adventure! The whole atmosphere of the ride was immersing and believable, and the drop was intense. There were so many rides that I loved, and I can't wait to go back.

In the Stealth queue, my friend heard the SAW III music and said she wanted to do a GCSE dance to it

Apparently, Dueling Dragons WILL go to the Wizarding World of Harry Potter, and be renamed Dragon Challenge (according to the WWOHP website). Hopefully the land is open when I go

Thanks for all the replies - hopefully I can get to all of the parks this May! I thought the Hulk might get recommendations, a friend of mine went on it and said it was amazing!I really can't wait, it will be amazing. Thanks for the recommendations

OK, so I am going to Florida in May, with a pass for ALL of the parks.I am wondering, in your opinion, what is the BEST attraction over there? I think it may be Kraken, or the new, rethemed Dueling Dragons in the Wizarding World of Harry Potter. What would it be for you?

I quite like it. It gets me pumped, because I know I will scream my head off on the ride!

I walked past Perri Luc Kiely (Diversity dude with the afro) at Lakeside on Thursday I was so tempted to touch his hair, but, it would be a pit pervy ( ) and I just politely smiled, thinking OH MA GAWD YOU'RE DA COOL WUN OFF BGT! and he smiled back! I was like, YES!

YAR! Of course, I would rather be at school though. *sarcasm*

I'M GOING TO TURKEY ON MONDAY! :PI miss 2 weeks of school! how friggin fantastic!

When I went to Thorpe in the Easter holidays, I was sitting by the little hot dog truck by Stealth, and a song was playing. It sounded as if the woman singing was saying "mamas little girl loves shortening bread" or something like that. Does anyone know what the song is called and who it was by?

I LOVE DEAD SET!Davina is rather frightening as a zombie

I would like another normal Colossus-like rollercoaster on new land, and a new area. Here is the synopsis of my idea ( )2014 - New land is opened. Named Texas Mountains and includes: Cavern's Cold Revenge - A runaway mine train that includes sharp turns, drops and dark sections, some in the mountain (think Big Thunder Mountain at Disneyland Paris).Hammer - An Intamin 'suspended twin hammer that rotates 360 degrees, turning riders upside down. Themed around a windmill.Mountain's Rage - A steel rollercoaster. Chain-lifted around 150ft, then a sharp drop, entering the mountain and looping, before an overbanked curve outside. Turn, and then another drop into the mountain - this time, interacting with the Runaway Mine Train. The car suddenly slows down in a tunnel, slowly passing through the dusty mine, with some flashlights and overhead lanterns flickering. Suddenly, the lights go out, and a long drop (around 90ft) into the darkness follows. Corkscrews, helix and a sudden turn outside, before a turn into brakes, coming back into the station, which is themed around an abandoned mine.The mountain that the rides pass through is visible from the entrance, reaching heights of around 160ft (an exception of height, which also includes Mountain's Rage).Yes, yes, I know it would NEVER happen - but it would be cool, right?

When I went to Chessington on the 18th April, I went on Rameses Revenge 4 times; the woman controlling it did this really cool thing where the cars were locked almost inverted, then brought us to the top and let go. The car inverted about 5 times non-stop really fast. Yes, if you were wondering, it was nauseating, but fun.The only problem I have with Rameses are how tight the restraints are. They hurt my area :/
