Funnily enough I've had the complete opposite, all the times I've ridden it in the dark and it's still boring...

I bet that it'll follow a train of being excessively over-hyped through a mixture of marketing and enthusiasts bigging it up to be the best thing in the world...Then we get a rough and unreliable ride that breaks down in it's first hour of operation...And it won't be what any enthusiast wanted...

Hot damn... Who'd thought that a water ride would be most popular on sunny days...

Yes, because EVERY X-car ride looks like Abismo... I only said X-car as a joke...

^So it's gonna be an Intamin then?I KNEW there was gonna be something wrong with this... -_-In regards to me not thinking it looks like a 4-D drop, it's mainly my thinking of "Holy crap that's gonna hurt"... It starts with excessive hangtime, followed by half a pretzel loop, which after experiencing one on Tatsu a few years ago, is something I don't particularly want to repeat on a regular basis since it tried to rip my legs off... One hopes that the final design resembles at most 0% of that image...Just my two pence really...

Erm... 4-D drop that is not... In fact I see that and instantly see a Mauer Sohne X-Car drop... -_-Though granted because I cannot seem to enlarge the images it's hard for me to actually tell...

Next time you go hand out the stuff you were on so we can all enjoy your experience on this piece of faeces...

Ruthless German efficiency strikes again...

Since whenever a new coaster is planned Aquatrax is ALWAYS mentioned...

Intamin Aquatrax coaster will be the second one coming in...Simples...

Double post...Good news first, the snake is fine again... Horray...Now the bad news... And it's very bad... Possibly worse than the loading procedure going on atm...Basically it seems that the building has not been doing well with our current heat-wave, so they've been attempting to improve the situation, by ripping out the roof in certain sections and adding new fans... This causes epic problems to the atmosphere as it let's in massive amounts of sunlight into the building in 3 areas, top of boulder lift, start of mummy room and then mummy corridor... It's really obvious and quite bad... I can only hope that it's just something that's in the process of being sorted, since it looks horrendous in the areas...

Yet... Did see a truck load of wood going through security gate in the morning

^ WANT

Bloody boiling hot day today...Went with peep who was doing some filming so did no rides until about 1/2, but still managed to get on everything bar Kobra, which although now open again, is rather unshaded and this was NOT the weather to not be in the shade 90% of the time...Also held Charlie the 4 month old hand-reared meerkat <3Queues probs peaked slightly around 20 minutes, but god knows since the filming took up the entire morning...Ride Count Lorikeet Lagoon x1Falls x1Monkey x1Fury x2Tomb x1Bubbles x1Vamp x2Buccy x1Turmoil x1

It came back up today...And later on got stuck in the other hill, but re-opened again...But it should be ok again... *touch wood*

I dunno what happened tbh, but he has two feet now...So yeah, now they just have to fix the entire piece of crap...

OMG NO WAYZ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1111

I do hope I'm not the only one who doesn't understand how Africa will not be in Africa tomorrow...

^Pah, you'd be suprised how easy confidence can be affected by one wrong decision...Besides, our national 'team' is crap, why is everyone so bloody suprised?

You absolute philistine...

^ <3Yeah Drayton isn't the nicest park to visit, but I've never had a bad day there due to the company...Shockwave and G-Force are awful, awful rides...

Phew, miss Keith by a day

Mondial Supernova, originally where Submission stands now and removed in 2004 I think due to Rita/unpopularity...It was a good solid support ride imo, not too intense but not too boring... I miss it (like I miss Dynamo )

Don't rush it...Simple as really... Sex/Relationships is something you shouldn't really rush into because you can simply regret it... Don't worry about life... And if you're off to uni think of it as a fresh start for you... Don't bother trying to get stuff done before uni, rather just get prepared for it so you'll feel more comfortable there in the new environment... One simple new thing can easily change your life...

Didn't they (when it was first brought in last year) due to having an unused Fast-track queue system they instead plonked the single rider queue in there instead?Either that, or I must have been high when I was there and hence using my imagination, which is usually necessary when at Thorpe...
