Th13teen
Exactly, the only reason you discovered it was intentional was cos I told you since I read it on TTF...Such is the way that Thirteen isn't great...I went on it again, and that first trim KILLS the outside... If that wasn't there it would be so much better...

It's theming... Though not very well presented theming...The basic idea is that it's under restoration much like Hex... Unfortunately that's about as complex as the story gets... (I.e. there is no story)

Drayton Manor
They don't... Tbh there's not a real need for one at Drayton either... Apart from G-Force, but that's because of it only having one train...

TV programmes you hate
There's having a show, then's there's having a show that's outstayed it's welcome...Big Brother became the latter...

Dragon Falls
I think these may have been added slightly before everything else with the sponsorship...Though they added a new sponsor sign right outside the tunnel... Can only see it on the ride, and a quick glance, but still resulted in me having RAGE...

Chessington General Discussion
Not too sure where to put this, but here's just as good as it's a general note about the park...I do like the way Chessie are doing random bits and bobs here and there, most recently is this...It's simple and really nice imo... I can only imagine what that second pic would look like with a rock framework sitting behind it...

Thorpe Park Merchandise
I wish the Merlin parks would actually sell ride themed t-shirts...Another thing they can learn from the Americans...

Bubbleworks
That scene lost everything magical about it (as did the rest of the ride) when it got rethemed...

Quiet days are amazing... <3Like today will be... If I don't crash my car on the way there 2'000 gate figures are lush...

Thorpe Park Trip Reports
I realise this, and have done for a while, and it greatly annoyed me at Towers' Scarefest last year with the random music (though that may have been the Twilight link, I'm not sure), so I just generally dislike it, even if they had two songs I actually liked on that loop... It was too short and generally silly...Though Oblivion kept it's music <3Can't say about the other times, but it's usually changed for events only... Thorpe is trying to be very typical American Amusement Park atm, but it's not quite the same at all...

Thorpe Park Trip Reports
I take it the others are then decided by the engineers? Mainly thinking the Lost City ones cos they're the most likely to have varied settings... Especially Rush... It doesn't make a nice change when you dislike the music... Ok same could be said of the themed music but hey, at least it's making it a THEME park...

Rush
Wouldn't go as far as to say it was sexist that comment, but it was still rather short-sighted to say... Especially for those male members who have worked their arses off at the parks themselves...

News Desk
If I hadn't looked on this topic I wouldn't have noticed those bits...Meh, least they're nice and tidy and not in one of them annoying pop-up boxes...
-
Rush
No... It's the person, not the sex that affects the way they work...
-
Music
Most bands do have relatively rigid setlists in their tours anyways, changing one or two songs per venue...It's like when I looked up Rammstein's setlists of the UK shows they did... The same basic songs played at each one... Such is the way of gigs...

Paultons Park
Different speed setting is the answer here... Paultons have a lot more belief in their version and obviously do enjoy making it a more exciting ride for the kids...Griffins of course can go faster... But it's a case of getting it changed and whether or not the management want to do that...Another mystery solved Watson...
