    ^ Building profit into any system can not make it cheaper as it is an extra cost. Simple. Privatisation: makes me .Anyway, She's pleaded not guilty. Can't wait to hear what her defence will be!UPDATE: She didn't actually enter a plea so is remanded in custody until the new year. Merry Christmas!!
  4. And it is nothing like as high as depicted (that actual view is not even close to being possible), has a big colourful pyramid as a back drop instead of a tidal-esque disaster scene, has no water blankets on the way down, the boats don't come close to splashing up the sides like that and the queue line squirters worked for about 20 minutes ever. And the riders have smiles on their faces ;)Yes, a joke of a comparison I know, but I really would take artists visualisations with a massive pinch of salt. I don't know where the cut off point is where these things become fraudulent, but that SS one is really pushing it. They provide an unrealistic expectation of what they are offering with the sole purpose of selling some tickets. A dangerous game to play - Winter Wonderland anyone?Anyway, I would LOVE the fire effects to actually happen. The fire was a bit wasted on X2 and hardly noticeable, but on Salvation it's incredible. If it is done as the pic suggest from the engine then that would be awesome as you would be flying towards it. But, considering the cost of gas now, and that the same park would not run or maintain a fire effect that went off every 15 minutes as opposed to every 2 or 3 minutes here, I'm not holding my breath.
  5. Look at this huge SURGE promotional poster I came across, which clearly shows it's really tall with immense theming, water squirters that work and a massive tipping bucket, can't wait!Wouldn't pay too much attention to artists impression promo material tbh.
  6. No, probably about £115 profit. How generous of them.
  7. untangling my Christmas lights is tougher than cracking the enigma code. That must be one hell of a party those lights have had in my loft this year.

  8. From the developer diary..... So it turns out what you need to work in this industry, more than anything else, is charisma. :DAnd the mystery of the track in the lake explained.
  9. Maybe fools are paying it but for me £6 a ride is a problem. Won't be going to get ripped off.

    I'm sure a Mod or Admin knows more than me, but it seems after a month or so of inactivity you drop into 'gone away', which is fair enough. But when people return it sometimes takes ages for them to move back into 'members' and that bugs me for some reason, just grates when people are 'gone away' yet active and posting.
  13. That is just wow. I thought I knew what it would look like, but, wow.Couldn't look better at this stage really Hopefully it is necessary because it contains the gas pipe for the fire effects!! Fingers crossed.
  14. Likes early Walliams/Lucas work (I've got it on dvd and still didn't recognise the quote!)
  15. :wub:A massive production incorporating touching small details, so beautifully Disney.

    See 'rant'.If I were there I would have arrested her ass in a flash. I don't know how well known, how old or where this vid is from, if anyone does know a complaint can be made to police of racially aggravated public order and I'm sure local officers will happily deal with it.What chance does that kid have? Outrageous.
  17. Glad it's not just us that thinks that, we can get a bit blinkered to the outside world in our job.Try explaining this logic to C2C. I'm on the train a lot less then I used to be!!
  18. My job have always been entitled to free rail travel as we are, whether on or off duty, expected to be security and step in where required. This has been the case for time immortal. A couple of months ago this was withdrawn and now we have to pay - so you are all less looked after of the train because, you know what, I'm not sticking myself on the line beyond what the average person would for the fun of it. I'm off duty, I'm not involved.The train companies are screwing us all over. They make the tariffs so complex there is no way of getting it right. A few months ago I was sold a ticket by their staff at the desk and, like Josh, when I got to my destination they told me it was the wrong ticket but couldn't exactly say why. I left my details with the guard and said some things to him that would make the filter go off on here and walked off. I've not heard anything since. Most of them have got less of a clue than you about the correct tickets - front them out if you know you are in the right and are not taking the piss, they will rarely push it if you go at them with confidence.
  19. cold, so so cold.

    I keep getting told I look like Arg from TOWIE. I don't watch that nonsense but when I told my wife she told me that he is the fat one, so I won't take it as a compliment.Also -
