  1. If that's the case then why do they take about a minute and a half to dispatch?!
  2. Why?! It's called Single Rider for a reason! Should have been told to go away.
  3. There is no way to 'abuse' a single rider queue so that is rubbish. The only way is idiots expecting to ride together despite it being a Single Rider Queue, which I don't take as a valid excuse as the staff should simply tell them to leave, and get security to eject them from the park if they refuse to leave.
  4. Out of interest, why don't Thorpe use the main theme anymore? It's such a good piece of music and created a good atmosphere when it was played across the whole queueline, rather than some racket with a monkey sound effect! I mean how does that even suit Inferno?
  5. That's a shame as it has the potential to be quite good!
  6. For anyone who has been to Oakwood this year, have they finished the interior of Skull Rock or is the warehouse still completely visible and light with no attempt at hiding it?

    In my opinion you should be able to take bags on with you. I've been on plenty of coasters bigger than X where you take the bag with you and I don't see a problem with it. Unfortunately with some of the people Thorpe attracts I don't see that being possible.

    TREBLE! Cannot read bass clef The Smiler or Colossus?

    Yeah I am the trombonist, and non-valve trombone as I am yet to play a trombone with valves!

    BOTH! Burger King or Burger Kitchen?
  11. At the moment. I have no doubt that by next year they will be selling these VIP passes to anyone and everyone.
  12. It was closed all day (so far) today with no evidence of people working on it.
  13. I believe that's the full playlist, but they don't use all of the songs on it.

  15. That's actually very poor!
  16. Oi! Asylum! Cabin in the Woods was good for it's first year I thought, but I'd like to see it upped a level this year. - Decent scare at the end rather than just a well themed but ultimately empty walkway. - Hide the curtains between scenes more - Consistency Great to see it win an award though!
  17. Great, I was going to visit on the 30th
  18. Vertigo at Oakwood has always struck me as way overpriced considering that it's in a theme park that you have already paid entry for. It's a shame as I really want to do Vertigo but can't justify the price!
  19. There is no need for priority parking at Thorpe as the entrance is right next to the car park.
  20. £25 seems very steep, but the value depends on how long you get IMO. If you get 15 - 20 minutes then it's not so bad, but if it's simply the first time you fall off that's your go over then it's very expensive!
  21. Serves him right, what an idiot.
  22. Or, just go on a Sunday before the school holidays start. By 8pm the park is almost empty! (Well, it was on 4 separate Sundays last year).
