I'm afraid the system is automatic, so the email they invited me to book from is a no reply

Hey
I applied for a job at Thorpe, got invited to an assessment centre, but I need to contact HR regarding dates as only 1 is available and I cant make it.
does anyone have an email address for HR? -
Terrifying dropS of over 100ft
It simply could mean the height of the 2 main drops, or drops after inversion, added together total more than 100ft, seems the most rational explanation

It's for the themed weekends, shame the same doesn't apply to annual pass holders
But star wars is open for all the Christmas shopping days!

I would also be willing to house said poster

Strange how no nemesis sub terra, it's an indoor dark ride, surely useful for half term? When its cold
-
The best music is on the tea cups, during the ride its the TOTT queueline audio from towers, at the end it's the dining room from TOTT.
Great Fn audio this year

I've been to both events now and sorry Thorpe but the scarefest mazes win!
TOTT is just brilliant, especially the finale, the sanctuary is very well through out and quite unique and is also very long. Carnival this year is also my favourite version (beats 2010 for sure) especially at night.

Samurai has program settings, a usually top scan won't have this, just a manual I think.
If it needs this much repair just but a new fairground model lol
-
I think either it will be a complete refurbishment so new parts etc (maybe going back to Mondial again) or they could buy a new fairground version and install that with the better settings etc and manual.

It was down all day today!
Swarm,nemesis and loggers had a few problems throughout the day, and Colossus had the back cart on 1 of the trains down.
Ride close was extended till 7pm
-
Fairy Tale brook is not going to be removed. All rides in the area are staying! It's mainly the water and dry play areas that are effected, and of course the duplo theatre seating extension
-
If Se7en is gone, I'm guessing the old hellgate route will be refurbished for a maze, hellgate was great as you had long winding routes with holes the actors could just pop out of.
If I was Thorpe id move curse into the bigger side of the beach to make it longer and have more scenes to create a better maze.
We will have to wait for an announcement from Thorpe

Bit late, and the application was on RBWM as of 21st AugustLegoland Windsor has today applied for planning permission to re build part of the resort. The Duplo Land is going to get a huge makeover for what looks like the 2013 season, all of the rides and attractions look to be staying in the area but the pay to play crazy golf is finally going to be moving out of the park after it magically appearing half way though a season a couple of years ago! The current waterworks is going to be expanded to feature water slides, tipping buckets and lots more special features. Along with the new waterpark play area the park are finally adding changing rooms into the area!
It's going to be good though, I had no idea that there were changing rooms to be added, that's even better
-
On a positive note, a not so good golf course which is a payed attraction, will be replaced by a free water area
-
I did my work experience here this year in the dept rides and attractions, I saw pretty cool stuff like the ride safety checks they've got to go through everyday and the powering up of the ride especially a behind the scenes look of atlantis and star wars. I was a welcome host on both attractions .
Work experience is the best at LL, I did rides and attractions in 2010 and got to work on rocket racers, laser raiders,driving school and more
my favourite was rocket racers to work on and I miss that ride soooo much! -
It's not really a new land, just a refurb. There is already duploland with waterworks etc.
Essentially the new water area is where the golf and dry play area is now, and the new dry area will be on the site of the current water works.
The waterworks is always popular at LL so. If this is themed properly then well done to LL as waterworks was desperate for a re do
