Coaster

Ban bus shelters, the public may be horrifically crushed!

No worries - it's worth a go if you are in the area, but I wouldn't travel there specifically for the aquarium.

I don't much like the London one, it's always packed full of people so you can't really see anyway and there's nothing that stands out about it.

Thunder River's tunnel looked fantastic back then!
Why remove that and leave the warehouse on show/have it in total darkness?

That's a "GREAT" video. It feels so weird to see X "Colon Backslash" No Way Out actually being promoted and looking faintly impressive. Poor thing, it only wanted to be understood.

It's not so much the Scarefest hours. It's the fact they persist with closing at 5 or 5.30pm even when it's still quite busy at those times.

I found the (new) Dungeons to be really good actually. Very atmospheric and well themed with lots of humerous touches such as the singing heads at the exit. The Traitor boat ride and Extremis were very good too.
That bring said, never went to the old dungeons, so I can't give a full opinion on that aspect.

I will finally be visiting the new London Dungeons next weekend!
I intend to write a full review on here.

*21st century Merlin owned UK theme parks.

Breaching health and safety rules in such a way is ridiculous, it's people like you who ruin our rides for everyone.
(Anyone remember the restriction on Rumba Rapids last year because of people standing up?)
What on earth went through your head to do an idiotic thing like that?
This proves my point about the park not being strict enough - you should have been ejected from the park for doing that!
Stupidity.

Well I just applied to Chessington to be a games host. Hope I do better this time.

Merlin may be the second biggest themepatk group, but they're definately not second best.

Wow I am never going to moan about the Depth Charge queue again! Mind you they probably released boats 3 times faster in those days!

I am actually quite happy with angry bird land especially as I have family who would love to go Thorpe Park but don't want to go on the bigger thrill rides. I for one would love return of proper themed area's especially as far as music is concerned please bring back the entrance theme and end of the day while your at it as they want to appeal to families now.

Exactly, that's my point with the £6 ride pass. It's great that they offer this for situations similar to the one you have stated above, rather than charging full price for a non rider.
In other news, the park now has a guest services centre which I think is brilliant. Also, it's very classy!

Welcome to the forums, it's great to see new people joining

Hello Jammin James. I'm new too! I'm BDC (Big Daddy Cool) and this site seems like a nice place, I may stick around

Agreed that wristbands are the best way to go with the Pleasure Beach but I find you're first statement invalid. As already stated even to enter Thorpe Park and not ride you have to pay your money. So I think on contrast, yes you can go into Thorpe and walk around, eat some food, play some games, and go on any ride you like; for £6 you get a fair deal on the basis you can do the same except ride a few select rides, and then obviously pay a stupid amount for one-off rides.
Lets be serious you don't go to the Pleasure Beach unless you have a wristband.

Tall wooden coaster!

Never went on Submission, so can't really say an opinion about this ride except, it's a shame I never got to try it, eventhough a lot of people said it was an uncomfortable experience.
Looks like that's another empty ride spot in Towers, seeing that Beastie become SBNO three years ago and was ripped out in 2013. I can't really see what they would replace it with though in future ride wise, but I'll expect it'll be just a big gap for 2014.

Well I am on my way home from my assessment I was one of the first names called for my interview, so I hope that is a good sign.
Good fun and I just hope I get the job now.

Bump
ok so tomorrow is the assement centre and I'm more excited then nervous but I'm that too.
I will let you know how it goes tomorrow.

I have managed to get a picture of what we can expect from Angry Birds land
