Is very intelligent.

Not so much of a rant , just a disappointmentI was due to be going to Thorpe tomorrow with 3 of my old friends. I was really excited about seeing them again and going to Thorpe. Unforuantely two of them have dropped out and the other can't go without a buy one get one free voucher with someone else. I also don't really want to go just me and him.

First of all well done for letting them go if they were treating you like crap, takes a lot of nerve to do that.You must have been pretty darn resilient to resist the urge to react if they had been doing it for so long and then they stopped, have confidence in that. It really does show that people will annoy you because they want to see you react. you denied them this by not flipping at them and I presume you were ignoring them if they stopped. Jut keep standing strong and after all, what will this gain them in life, you may have come out of this a stronger person and you will have got rid of some rather crap friends.Just keep going, the people who really care for you will stick by you forever, whether this be friends or family.

Guess what I saw on the App Store a couple of days ago..Tap Tap Justin Bieber, oh dear God, what am I to do?Seriously though, I have listened to her so many times after being told she was could yet my first impression was still correct in my opinion, not good.

I tried to copy and paste more but it kept failing, sorry. Thanks a bunch for looking it up, very much appreciated. Now I guess it's this vs. Bad Company 2....Again, thank you very much!

No, not at all. I made a mistake which I really should have known about before posting and you replied correcting me, nothing wrong with that!

Oh, sorry. If he did provide this then it really is down to a lack of effort.

Thank you very much everyone! I for one thought I was a goner with Josh's entry, really fantastic!I think the problem is that some people are not willing to put in the effort. For example, some of the photo ones, people simply do not have the skills or programs to edit a photo.Thank you very much for providing them up to now though!

The LHC should be colliding protons at 7 trillion electron volts today! This is the highest ever.

I am most definitely interested in this competition!

That looks...amazing! I was there last August and to see the change from scaffolding to utter brilliance is great. This really does look good, Universal have really gone for it! Interested to see how Disney will respond, hopefully the new fantasy land will be amazing as well. The level of detail shown by the Orlando parks is mind blowing, especially some of the little things put in rides by the Imagineers, very clever.

Mars Bar sauce, mmmmmmm..

Just a quick trip report from me:First of all I'll say this was a quick visit. This is because my parents are very much of the opinion "you've grown out of Chessington, why not go to Thorpe instead". This was meant to be a visit just to get an Annual Pass and then leave but I persuaded them to give me a couple of hours on park.We arrived at about 9:20 and I was impressed with the new theming at the entrance. We then went to get our Annual Passes. There were two groups in front of us and after about 10 minutes we were being served. This was quite funny because there was a incident with the tills. At certain points during the transaction the till pops up:Take 1: The till flies up...with our vouchers on it and these then fly against the glass.Take 2: Same thing happens.Take 3: The camera is on the till and this promptly makes contact with the glass.After this we got our passes but realised the dates were the wrong way round so these were reprinted. Even though she made a few mistakes, the woman at the desk was apologising about it so that was fine.At 9:55 we entered the park and went to Kobra. I had seen the pictures but was stunned with the theming in Wild Asia, to see it for myself was amazing. A very good job there Chessie! We went straight on Kobra which I thought was quite fun and had some good airtime but was not overly amazing. It fit the target audience perfectly though so all is well.Next up we went on Dragons Fury which was fun as ever. Nothing particularly notable to say here.Next up we went to Vampire and I was pleased I did. The queue looks great with the repainted fences. There was no queue so straight to the station, this was fantastic. Walking in I was hit with the audio blasting out the speakers, was really good to have it loud. Seeing the organist work again ignited the fanboy within me, something my brother neglects to understand! A solid ride with good improvements made. Next it was off to Rattlesnake. I enjoy this ride but as with Vampire, the last time I visited was two years ago so the drops seem a lot smaller. Coming out of this was brilliant though as the person at the entrance was singing and dancing to the music. Really great to see staff enjoying themselves.After this we went on Tomb Blaster which was walk on, I failed, as usual. Seemed to have some good effects I had not noticed before.Our final ride was Dragon Falls, again a walk on. A good log flume with some new sound effects and water effects. The elephant was working again, unfortunately this got me far wetter than the main drop. I liked the new music as you go into the dragon but they really should theme the inside of that, it looks horrible.Unfortunately that was all we had time for, really wish I could visit for longer and more often, I missed out on a lot. Was a great day though!

Well, they completely and utterly failed at getting me!

I went on this yesterday and would give it a solid 6/10.It is quite slow to load but looks magnificent in operation. The theming around the ride was nice but not overly extensive.The reason I like this ride is the airtime given, it is very good. However after the initial full length travels I became slightly bored and started to look around Wild Asia from the unique perspective.Even though I did not think it was that good I think it hits the spot perfectly for the majority of guests at the park. A fun and thrilling ride for all the family. Children on the ride seemed to be loving it from where I was standing!A very good addition.

I was pleasently surprised riding this yesterday. I liked the fact they had bothered to make the elephant work again and added the "fountain" after the drop. It stopped just as I went past and came back on after though .I also liked the music as you entered the dragon, I thought it was a nice touch. Although as you go in you realise yet again that you are in a big corrugated iron box, would be really impressed if they could change that inside somehow.

I have to agree with this, they definitely seemed a lot more friendly. The best I saw was the person at the entrance of the queue to Rattlesnake. He was singing and dancing along to the music played out there . Really pleased me to see someone having fun on the job.
