  1. ^Just goes to show what years of basic neglect from your parent company does to you really...
  2. I think the main thing about the track/supports is that in my opinion it's one of the rides that can kinda get away with not looking brilliantly shiny and new...However, it does need some new bits added here in and there... Firstly having some black gothic looking queue fencing instead of the cheap purple affair we have now... Then it needs a bloody facade on the building, just a cheap 2/3mm painted piece of wood would be a great addition if painted in such a way to make it look like a castle/church/whatever the aim is...Inside, basically they just need to theme the air-gates (like the old days), and maybe add a few cobwebs/generic spooky things around the station...The brake-run could do with some stuff to look at that suited the theme (I.e. NOT the random masks from previous years)...And finally, bring back the original entrance... Please... It's so much better...
  3. What they look like? The dragon roar and chimes were on during opening day but not when I went t'other weekend...
  4. ^Do you mean like random laughing, screaming and wolf howling?If so, it's been around before...
  5. The colouring is so very 90s...
  6. Well yeah, I wouldn't particularly want to risk my limbs on a ride...

    Jobs..

    I have a summer job at the London Eye... The grasp of Merlin is too strong for me to escape However, I will be spending a month doing nothing between finishing uni and starting it... Sad times...
  8. Well it's a hung parliament...Woo I guess... Though there'll be a few areas vying for a re-vote by the sounds of it because people all turned up at 10 to vote
  9. As an aside, can I ask if I'm the only immature one who cannot take the term "Well-Hung Parliament" seriously?
  10. We've been losing the battle since we went in... It's the modern day Vietnam...
  11. Did we need to go to war though? We didn't need to get involved at all...Bush said "Jump" to Blair and he asked "How high?"...That's the essential run-down of it...Brown is an idiot and Cameron is a slime-ball... I don't particularly want either of them in office... I see some of Blair in Cameron to a degree as well... Urgh...
  12. But did they not claim a few years ago that the current economy was 'recession proof'?I can imagine that a lot of families of the Iraq/Afghan troops will also have something to say about how Labour have run the country...
  13. Wait... What?Recession goes where?
  14. Or a Ferris Wheel that can use it's capacity and continuous loading... Basically a mini-London Eye, 99% of the guests compare Peeking to it anyways...Then they can also remove the crappy game things and put in a small flat ride...
  15. Not at all...Since Legoland attracts families and has the whole brand thing... Hence more people will go there because they know what they're getting more instantly than with Thorpe (and Chessie/Alton)... It's why Disney is the highest lot because of how well known the brand name is...Why do some people have a fixation with putting Thorpe in capitals? It's as bad as people typing Chessie in full and putting 'And Zoo' at the end...
  16. An entire day?I would throw up if it were Pizza Hut... It hasn't seemed to agree with me since 2006 unfortunately.,..McDonalds... Meh... Would get sickly after a while as well...
  17. No...Buccaneer is perfect where it is... Because of the height it reaches it can be viewed from most areas nearby it (indeed, you can see it from Greedy Goblin containment gates)...It also provides a great spectator element with the pathway placement...Pirates Cove does need a good fix up though... But there's more important things than that right now for the park...
  18. I think the term 'oops' just about covers that...Doesn't say if the people were ok or not though, so I assume they are... If they had been seriously injured or hurt that would've been all over the news...

    Football

    YES! YES! YES! YES!What a bloody season... But Palace did it... This is the feeling of supporting a team, bricking it for 2 hours and then leaping around the house like a crazed idiot when the ref blew up...Absolutely amazing... I shall be buzzing on my way back to uni tonight...

    Tesla times?Tbh unless they sort the queue out in such a way that you spend more time inside that area then it's a bit of a wasted thing...
  21. Sounds like one of those people "Don't you know who I am?"...God I'd be terrible in Guest Services
  22. It's not quicker... Just a much nicer side to be on since that queue is very very claustrophobic... Since the left-side is next to the open sides of the queue building...
  23. Extra Magic Hours ONLY is at the Magic Kingdom park and includes Discoveryland and Fantasyland... That is it... So no Crush...Therefore, you MUST MUST MUST MUST MUST! get to the Studios at latest 9:30 (when the park opens) and head straight to Crush... Otherwise you will experience a 90 minute queue at least... Santa Fe is typical cheap hotel fare tbh... That's about it for really useful tips... Big Thunder Mountain also gets 90 minute queue very regularly so either do that when it first opens OR get fastpass OR just endure the queue ensuring you stand in the left-side of the queue split...Also make time for Cinemagique, Animagique and Stitch Live... Each of them are very good entertaining shows...You might be lucky that Honey I shrunk the Audience will be gone... God that thing is so bloody awful...
  24. Water rides look so much better when the water looks clean...In the image above, it reminds of the the water ride at Flamingoland... God that water was mank as hell...
