That is your filthy adult mind piecing that together! To a child it might play slightly wildly in their head but they would make it fit something they are comfortable with, and then enter that dark tunnel with the expectant fear I did so many times. -
That atmospheric track is fantastic, it is cartoon horror and fits the area perfectly. There is no reason not to play it now, you are supposed to scare children in a theme park. I know I loved it when I was one!

Meanwhile, back at 6 flags, war breaks out between America and Germany... http://thescoopblog.dallasnews.com/2014/03/texas-giant-train-designer-blaming-six-flags-for-fatal-accident.html/ I doubt we'll be seeing any more Gurst rides in 6 flags parks!

The Sun, promoting something associated to the BBC? I bet that is making their heads hurt.

Yes they do! The video obviously can't show strobes because of the frame rate, but seeing it plunge in to total darkness with the bright white flashes is a beautiful thing.

See you on Stealth then!
Well I only have a TP AP and at the moment (based on the facebook post promoting the event) I'm going and have booked my ticket with my AP number, so let me know if you find out otherwise please!
Another Chessington sponsorship I've never heard of, I'm still yet to discover what a juicy drop pop is.
Who told you that? From Thorpe facebook... I think it is clear from that both Thorpe and Merlin AP holders can get in. Book your ticket!
Decent offer for the tall kids.
Good. Where was the old proposed location on that map? I still think the increase in accommodation needs to be matched with an increase in things to do, one extra restaurant doesn't seem enough. Hopefully it could lead to some evening water park opening, which would improve the resort hugely for me.
Have they said anywhere what 'theme' the rest of the nights are going to be? It really will influence which one(s) I go to, would hate to book then find out is is garage or drum and base or something.
Story is still going strong... http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-berkshire-26453576 Total resort closure due to threats. Mental.
http://www.chessington.com/scorpion/ Well, they make it sound good...
Well in that case, I demand it!
They were rock solid when it was new and for many years, was only at the very end of its life at Chessington they started to move and nothing like they do now. Of course it is safe but I do find it unnerving, there are a hell of a lot of forces on those restraints and it's always in the back of my mind that I'm likely to be the heaviest thing they've had to deal with for a while when I ride, if one of them is ready to give up my bulk might just tip it over the edge!
Because it is almost certainly the oldest mondial ride you've been on and therefore the most knackered. It disturbs me too, I'm sure they shouldn't move side to side like that. But it must be safe...
Favourite of all time would probably be Prince, of right now Bruno Mars. There's too many to mention for the worst but death metal isn't music, so any of that.
