Hopefully you're right, but with the speed they go up and down how permanent are they? I'm thinking closed season redeployment, or even partial bits of it being used elsewhere off peak in season.

Because they are not theirs. I really don't think snoozebox will be allowing Thorpe to personalise their boxes as they may be used elsewhere at other times

Before riding I thought the same but The Swarm is a lot better (faster) than it looks, if a little short. It is near impossible to tell from POVs but X-flight looks to be the weakest one to me with the a poorer initial inversion, some awkward looking manoeuvres and pacing. Wild Eagle looks by some way the best so far, and GateKeeper should be even better if what we've seen in mock ups is accurate. One of the most exciting elements here for me will be the gate cut throughs. The near misses don't seem to have quite worked out so far, but the shear speed these will be taken at should make it quite a feeling.

Damn it, pains me to add that back on....

Theme Park Central have just posted this on facebook No idea on the origin but could be for SW7 with what we know about the seating layout. I would be expecting something much more compact though for that tight layout, can't really see that working.

So 'new' Test Track is done... Not entirely sure what to make of that, if they wanted some sort of 'Tron - The Ride' why not just build one? Hmmm.

Looking through the forums I don't think there is a topic for all our ORP's? I'm sure we've all got loads gathering dust somewhere, so lets see them, old and new. I'll start. Clicking through some old photos I found a small collection from 2006, when PA were already offering an emailed file of photos for a small price - catch up Merlin! Completely unaware that Hurricane Condor was about to destroy my testicles A particularly uninteresting one form Dragon Khan Some ugly as hell merged photo composition on Splash And quite bizarrely looking like I'm sitting on a park bench, not a woodie, riding Stampida I know I have a stack of old ones from the early 90's onwards somewhere, I'll try and scan them in later. Get sharing....

My God I feel ill, like absolute death,

There are no winners on I'm a celebrity, except maybe for Ant and Dec.

Looks like frogspawn, don't think I'll be trying that. Also...

Tonight I'm going to see Squeeze at Cliffs Pavilion in Southend. Who Squeeze? Say all the kids. They are real music and this amazing... Oh yes. Can't wait.

In over your head? No No Correct

Car insurers. Utter crooks the lot of them. In June I had a car crash at work, some old fool drove out in front of me mostly because he was blind. I was found not at fault, the in car black box we have proved I was driving within speed limits, his insurers have paid the whole claim, and it was on a work policy anyway so would have no relevance to my private car insurance. All future work driving will also be on a work policy. Inform my insurers and they decided it increases my premium by £20 per year. What the hell? How does that work? Raging at the injustice.
