While its £16 for another after your renewal that one would be valid until your renewal date in 2014. So it makes sense over the long run but you are being short changed when it is first implemented.

It's to stop the way that say people share the capsules. For example we buy one capsule between the two of us and before either of us could get it filled up with our own APs but this season it would have to be the same person all the time. I emailed Merlin as I have a mid-year renewal date on my pass. I would have to pay £16 for now until my renewal date even though I would be able to use the capsule for less than a year. No discounts or anything for people in the same situation as me.

While the fencing had been removed around the tree that had fallen over, you could see where it had fallen and buckled another fence. This was common around the park where you could see remains of trees and the damage they had caused to the fences. Towers were lucky that the tree fell in the only direction where it wouldn't have caused structural damage to the surrounding buildings. It does completely validate why they had to close the park as if a person had been in the way it would have ended badly.

For me, it was like I had never been on it before. I got the same scared feeling and reactions as I had done the first time (I'm a bit of a wimp by the way who can barely manage Duel). Definitely runs better with the story and makes sense. So glad I didn't have my legs down as the leg ticklers were bad enough with horizontal legs. Felt more like the enslaught that it should be but without being drowned by the water (my glasses weren't as covered with as much water and the restraints weren't as wet when they first came down.

Had a really good day at Towers. Was good to have a day of not feeling rushed and just being able to wander around the park. First time I had tried Fried Chicken Co (not done it at Chessie either) and really loved it. Definitely better than any KFC I have had and was good to have really prompt service though I can see there being a problem with lack of seating and it does get a bit crowded so getting to the tables is hard. Another first was a visit to the medical centre. My foot was playing up so I went to get it strapped up. Didn't have the support I needed but improvised up one for me. Nice to see they have even themed the centre in way that is there but not in your face. Gave Benin something to look at while my foot was sorted out.

So amazing. Made me go all shivery

I screamed at both the drop and the effects. The drop because it was sudden and I still scream on drop towers and such. Not everyone is immune to them.It also does depend on who is riding with you. The second time, me and Benin had a group of teenage girls and a group of Japanese students. Hearing screams all around you does increase the effect.

I am a lot happier now that I have seen how it looks now. It also avoids the coming out of the arse option

^ And since I am in the car with you, me too

Feeling so ill. Got aches and pains all over, a sore throat and just feel exhausted. I can't be sick at the moment, I have so much work to do. I'm stuck at uni and having to rely on my friend to get me food from the canteen as I can't even walk down the stairs from my room. I'm just praying that I don't have tonsilitus again as that will wipe me out for a few days and I just don't have time for it.

The Jaws one is the worst. So complicated.

It has always been higher than £9,000 for international students who aren't from the EU so I don't think its going to make that much of a difference now.Oxbridge is well known internationally, that's what makes the difference.

The university I go to is typically known as the Oxbridge reject one. The vast majority of people who go here got rejected by Oxford or Cambridge. For me, only Oxford did my course and I could only get a B at Physics no matter how hard I tried so it wasn't an option for me but I had friends who went through the experience and the stress of having to interview.I know it seems harsh but at least you know why they rejected you. They are trying to pick between the highest candidates in the country without that much to go on. They have to find criteria that they can use to distinguish between people. There is only so much leeway they can give with the standard of school that you went to.I got rejected by Edinburgh and I asked why. They sent me an email explaining their admissions policy and all I could see that would apply to me was that I wasn't "local to the area".A lot of people get rejected and realise that it was probably the best thing to happen to them.

My uni shower is exactly like that. You just have to find the right point and never touch it until you have finished. Oh and add poor water pressure most of the day apart from at 11pm at night.

It doesn't feel like the car is being swallowed up by the monster since it is just a through tunnel

Glad to see I am not the only who ends up watching Tracey Beaker Returns. That's the problem/great thing about iPlayer as you can watch shameless kids tv without having to be embarrassed.Got a sense of deja vu last night watching Casualty. I stopped watching it a few years ago but then was tempted back last night by people's facebook statuses. I was sure we were going to have one of the staff die with the chemical gas, just like when they killed Woody off a few years ago in a car crash in a tunnel.In the middle of watching old school Grey's Anatomy. Definitely better than doing my university work.And new Sherlock tonight which makes me very very excited. May have to fight with my mother for the remote as she will want to watch Dancing on Ice.

Having seen the dodgy themeing, it is going to be interesting to see how it works with the mouth if they are moving that into place. Just how it is placed over the water without having a below ground section is going to make how it exits interesting.

Best bet is trying to actual paper's offices. They may at least be able to give you a copy of the article if not the paper itself.

It looks like someone's shoelaces at that point with them interlocking.

Toilets are going to end up like the ones by the Big One at PBB where when the train goes over they just rattle and shake.

Just a shame we have to go to Germany for it

This isn't regarding your last post but your one about Up.Watched it again recently after reading your post and completely agree with how you compare the beginning sequence to Bambi. Brings up so many feelings in such a simple way.

^ Just a shame that's during closed season

Tried to do the right thing today and sign out when I left college to go home for the week instead of just not doing it. Instead I get told I can't without having a stupid exeat form filled out even though I am not actually missing any lectures while I am away. I then had to run around getting the form filled out and signed by my department giving me "permission" to go home during the week. In the end I missed 20 minutes of my lecture today because I had to get this sorted. Stupid bureaucracy that is supposed to stop me missing lectures made me miss one for no reason. ARGH!!!Not going to do the right thing for a while now. Will not sign out next time I want to come home in the week.

*drools* Why is the chance of me getting to Dollywood so small?
