Coaster

Back to the future is my favourite film by far (all three).

Pizza Hut, KFC or Burger King. Not a fan of McDonald's, the meals are too small for me!

I might actually use that offer to try my first tea/coffee.

Very poor, in my opinion Wingrider trains have to be well themed (like The Swarm) otherwise they look awful.

That's a very good deal. (When booked online, £35 at the gate ) There is a better offer though - if you are going on holiday to the park and plan to visit two days then the "Big Value Pass" is a great price. Priced at £50, it gives you two wristbands to be used on seperate days as well as a Pleasure beach pass (allows you to enter the park without going on any rides), Ripley's believe it or not admission, two rounds of Pleasure beach adventure golf, an Ice skating session at the Arena and admission to Pasaje Del Terror. You can find out more about the pass here: https://www.blackpoolpleasurebeach.com/book-online/wristbands It's a great offer considering that, aside from money off wristbands you save £32.48 off the adult admission fees of the other things included in the Big Value Pass - not to mention the fact that you save £10 on wristbands.

If you are a fan of water/dark rides then I reccomend Valhalla. It's an amazing experience (yes not everyone likes it buy hey ho) with fantastic effects and drops etc... One thing though - wear your own waterproof, then buy one of the ponchos from there (not too expensive if I remember rightly) and wear that on top. You do get rather wet, but it is worth it for the experience. Also The Big One and all of the woodies. (From what I have heard about Stampida it is much rougher than the Blackpool ones, although I have not ridden it myself so don't take my word for it). Start of with Nickelodeon Streak/Blue Flyer, then Big Dipper, then if you like them go onto Grand National and Wild Mouse. Also don't forget their new ride for 2013, Wallace and Gromit! Hope this helps

Thorpe should invest in new trains for Colossus. It is a great ride (some people don't think so but everyone has opinions) and it is a shame that it is ruined by the awful trains. If they got new trains, possibly with lapbars if that is possible, but at least with different restraints and more leg room then it would be a much better ride.

It used to, but not with the p**s poor operations we see nowadays.

I have never even tried Tea or Coffee. Don't really know why lol

I meant the first drop, but the buildup to it is all part of it in my opinion. I do not think that the lift hill is world class. Lol.

Sounds like a great day, did you notice if there were any effects not working on Valhalla?

It goes down to opinion. Nobody can state that it is "good" or "bad", they can only give their own opinion. Personally I think it is fantastic - my favourite rollercoaster and much better than anything at Thorpe Park or Alton Towers. The first minute of the ride is world class. The first drop is absoloutley amazing, and the build up to it is all part of the experience. I like the rest of the ride, whilst it doesn't have the sheer intensity of the first drop it is still great fun, and if it is not a windy day then you are still travelling at a very fast speed so it's very thrilling. The drops being flat doesn't affect the ride experience too much in my opinion, although some people beg to differ. So yeah, in my opinion it is a world class coaster and worth the trip to Blackpool to ride it.

Visited today. RIDECOUNT: Zufari x2 Rattlesnake x3 Vampire x1 (Absoloute farce in operation of the ride today. Most ineffective two train service I have ever seen.) Rameses Revenge x1 Bubbleworks x1 Tomb Blaster x2 Kobra x1 Monkey Swinger x1 - Zufari opened approx 2pm. - From what I could see Dragon's Fury was only loading two people in most of the cars - I was not prepared to wait for it with a long queue it it was not running to capacity. - Vampire station operations were a farce today. Also wasn't impressed with the first aid people/paramedics - someone collapsed in the queueline (don't know why) and instead of getting a stretcher they just left her there in the cold (they were still there but didn't seem to know what to do). Poor girl!

I ate there today, not good at all. The "quarter pounder" is tiny and the bun is even smaller - the fries don't taste of much and I much prefered Burger King. Also the theming inside there now is mismatched and completley ruined. I actually liked the exterior though, so I guess they get 1/3. Unacceptable.

Well, after riding twice today I like some things about it but it could be improved durastically. It is very bumpy, especially in the back which is great fun and improves the experience by a lot! There were not however many animals outside and the cave final could have been better. - Also worth noting that it didn't open until approximatley 2pm today.

No, I will be on it later today so will pass judgement afterwards.

That sounds like great fun, but I don't recall it happening and it sounds a bit dangerous with people standing below!

I won't lie, whilst some aspects of Zufari look good I think that it looks dissapointing overall and a rushed job. I will be on park tomorrow so will experience it for myself, but as things stand at the moment (in my opinion) I can hardly say I'm excited.

Yes. Only joking, but it is a fantastic park and I prefer it to any other park. (And I have been to quite a lot, but not outside the UK)

Does the smoke in the pyramid smell like Stealth's?

It's not acceptable to drive out a company that provides good fast food and then serve up crap like that.

Very strange for the park to be empty on Easter weekend!

It's absoloutley appauling to state a 60 minute queue when there isn't one to promote fastrack sales. In fact, it is downright theft.

I will be on it next weekend so I will post a review on here after I have been on it. I am not watching the POV though because it would ruin it in my opinion.

Maybe they will if they are actually redoing everything - and by this I mean bringing all of the theming back. (Fingers crossed!)
