Logger's Leap
I went Monday and was a really nice ride on loggers I love it ! I went on 5 times in the day and gets better and better every time and the staff were really friendly and bought two photos too . The change if design in tunnel looks good too and I'm sure I got wetter this time too

Food Outlets
That's expensive I agree on the coke but have you seen the chocolate bars in the machines 85p each And £2.30 for a bag of sweets that are usally £1 .

Stealth
Seen a dead seagull in the safety net on stealth on Monday messy site feathers every where I bet that would kill someone you were sitting front row

Storm Surge
I went on storm surge yesterday and the water was still in boats . And I was first to go on ride too at opening time an water was brown in colour so been there from previous day . I was shocked they could at least have cleaned the boats out for the guests it only takes a few minutes

SAW: Alive
That makes me laugh that bit when they do that but it's true they must loose so much trade on photo But it great to see them in the light there is so much effort put into making them real looking which I love

Height Restrictions
I'm 6ft 6 and agree can be un confy on some rides collousus and stealth ! No legroom at all but I wedge myself in because loved them and take the pain because I'm a MAN lol Loggers is small seated and I take the whole rear seat To give you an idea how tall I can touch the floor sitting on nemmie on front row and have to bend my knees .

Tidal Wave
Very true what's the worst that can happen when you get stuck on tidal wave just sit there for ages unless the ratchet brakes and roll back down the hill .

Annual Passes
Thanks your a star ! I think I will buy merlin single passes for my friends and I will call up and see if I buy multiple if they will give a bit off discount That's a great idea with the winter time I didn't think of that .

Annual Passes
I was wondering if there are group annual passes for Thorpe or merlin ones for all attractions , I'm looking for one for 4 adults so that I can show one pass. Is there any passes like this that I can purchase instead of me and my friends purchasing all single annual passes because it seems a expensive way .And do they run from season to season ie march till November or loop over to next year .

SAW: The Ride
The Billy the puppet is very annoying at start of the ride and the sound it makes is awful ...

Logger's Leap
I totally agree with what you say about this subject but loads and loads of tests on these rides and safety features have to be at a very high standard . I have a good technical knowledge but don't know much about these mechanics on these ratchet stops .The H&S stuff gets way out of hand but has got to be done and I think loggers is quite good considering it's age .
