  1. I would imagine Mondays being quiet even during the school visit period - I can't imagine any schools visiting the park on a Monday.
  2. They need to improve operations on Vampire, it's not acceptable to have it this awful when it is one of two coasters trying to support a high amount of guests on some days. (I didn't count Rattlesnake because it's height restriction is quite high so families can't ride it - they go straight for Fury or Vampire in terms of coasters).
  3. Oops I worded it badly! Anyway I wasn't being serious...
  4. ^ no it's not... One is life threatening, one is a roller coaster.
  5. That explains it then. (Obviously because royalty free means minimal costs). Is it just me who thinks that the Neverland theme was a last minute decision? It seemed to be advertised as a pirate log flume with no hints of any other theme to it, then suddenly Peter Pan appears out of nowhere?
  6. Four hours?! Blimey, I wouldn't wait that long for any ride!
  7. I think that Neverland was a bad choice from the park (theming wise), people who like Peter Pan probably wouldn't be tall enough to go on the rides anyway! I can't see it attracting many more people to the park...
  8. ^Knightmare!! Please!
  9. Yeah you do get some idiots in Blackpool itself, but with the entrance fee you wouldn't get that in Pleasure Beach I'm sure.
  10. Blackpool Pleasure Beach have confirmed today that on 9th November this year they will be open until MIDNIGHT! Full details here: https://www.facebook.com/jamie.kingston.56/favorites#!/pleasurebeachresort?fref=ts
  11. Was the train being lifted up by a crane in that photo? (Surely it can't actually stop there?)
  12. Looks amazing, can't wait to ride it for myself!
  13. The ride carriage and station leave a lot to be desired...

    Logger's Leap

    No it still doesn't, which is stupid. I think that all log flumes should have a baggage hold facility!
  15. The trouble (especially with Thorpe) is that when they spend money on a ride, they do it half heartily and it gets overlooked/doesn't look and different after a month or two.
  16. I know it was improved this year (slightly), but seeing old photos shows how good it used to be/look. For example why remove the coloured wood chips on the ground?
  17. Please! No more stupid ride ops shouting down the PA to annoy guests...
  18. Looks so much better in that photo, I hate how theme parks let their rides 'degrade' just because they aren't new anymore.
  19. The station looks a bit tacky in my opinion - I know it's supposed to be part of the design but I reckon they have rushed it.

    Submission

    It's good that they are using both arms again I quite like Submission, I can't see why so many people hate it! If you don't like it don't ride it, simple as.
  21. I think that when they start testing The Smiler they should put up a temporary sign both at the park entrane and outside the ride saying "The Smiler will be testing today but will NOT be open" so that people can't complain, as to be fair it would be annoying to see it running with no explanation (talking of course from the point of view of a first time visitor/somebody who doesn't know anything about rides - I would understand why ).
  22. At one point today the queue time boards were saying The Swarm Brave It Backwards queue time 100 minutes - it was literally straight on! Not even joking!
  23. What is attraction number 9?
  24. Buy a new topscan my opinion!
