I blame Saw as we had the most horrific ride on Saw - then straight onto Colossus which was rough as hell - was feeling a bit rough in the queue for Quantum and had to dash to vomit - although not a great deal came out as I didn't eat much at lunch. Nearly chundered at the train station aswell - other than that - fab day! -
Had a fab day and was good to see you again and have a chat - and your story about the bag on tidal wave made me laff Sorry I didn't get a chance to say cheerio!

I threw up after riding this
-
Inferno was my first B&M to ride (last year) and I was expecting it to be a lot smoother than it was - wishful thinking maybe. But as I have got used to the ride it doesn't seem so bad (although on the ERT I could only manage 5 goes in a row as I was close to puking!) I do like Inferno but IMO it is inferior to all the other B&M coasters in the UK - and yah I include Air in that
-
So - how many times have you ridden Stealth?! I remember on the day of the Stealth photo thing you saying at the end of the day that you had spent most of the day on Stealth - after around 17 goes on it I couldn't face it anymore for that day
-

Sounds....epic I won't judge it until I have been on it but am just gutted that RMT is no more - twas my first (powered) and now it just tooks a tad naked.....like Dragon Falls
-
Although I liked Submission, I totally agree with your points made about the lack of flat rides. If AT were to get some more flat rides which were thrilling it would hopefully help ease queues of the coasters. The coasters at Towers are brilliant, and my only criticism of the place is the lack of flat rides and, (only because I am lazy) - the size of the place/time to walk to different areas
-

For ages I vowed to never do Rush or Slammer (due to the restraints) - but finally got the courage to do Rush towards end of season - yeah it is lap bars but they secure really tight - you HAVE to try it Back on topic - First coaster (powered) - Runaway train CWOA First coaster - Vampire CWOA First inverted coaster - Space Mountain DLP
-
are you insane?! 15 mins on high speed?! I won't even try Zodiac or Enterprise at Towers due to my sister riding it years ago and coming off green Lol - Yep - me too - I don't think any amount of anti-sickness meds could stop that
-
My bottom 2 wisdom teeth came through a tad wonky (one of them, the root was actually in the shape of a J!) - was fortunate that I got mine removed at my dentist and didn't need to go elsewhere - toothache is one of the worst pains to get so if you get trouble with it don't leave it because it gets flaming painful!
-
Eww imagine having lake water being dumped on you?! - It's bad enough on Loggers Leap - that water tastes pretty nasty (I don't go out of my way to drink it but - big drop/mouth open.....in it goes!)
-
^^ ouch! Wisdom teeth can be a pain - I had to have my bottom 2 removed (about 6 months apart) under local anaesthetic so was quite fortunate in compared to Wills experience! I used to be terrified of going to the dentist and only went when the pain got unbearable - tip if you are having tooth ache - clove oil (although this stuff tastes absolutely revolting and makes you salivate a bit too much, although it does numb the pain temporarily) - better is Anbisol which numbs the pain without the disgusting taste and works for longer if you seal it with Bonjela. Having 3 coming through at the same time I imagine is flaming painful! I was fortunate that mine popped out at different times
-
Griffins Galleon is really tucked away in LOTD - I've been on it many times (I quite like it!) but it has never been even nearly full, even on busy days. Shame that they shoved it in that corner
-
-
I only got to ride this twice last year (first time to Towers) - went for a third go but it was having technical probs. I am kinda gutted it is going - I really enjoyed it and didn't find it too painful - this brings Alton Towers flat rides down even further - something which they are lacking IMO.
-
^^^ Nice colleagues you have there Phill!
-
Am possibly going to be at TP with my niece on 22nd so have gone for 29th even though I am not a solid definite, although hope to make it
-
Thorpe Park Chessie Possibly Paultons Park Slim chance of DLP Sister is looking into getting a Merlin Pass so maybe Alton Towers too. Oh and Hayling Island funland (whoooo) because she lives at Hayling
-
Only ridden this once on last day of season (was too scared before-hand) Regarding restraints - would be nice if the had some where you can hold on to something.....or maybe that is just me
-
GARFIELD <3

Thanks for the info Mark - sister has never been to DLP - I went just the once 14 years ago (desperate to go back lol) - will tell her to try and plan her day, she is leaving on the Friday evening and will have the Saturday and Sunday in the parks (although only until 4pm on the Sunday). She is staying at Hotel Cheyenne (same hotel I stayed at!) and said that you get in earlier if you stay within the resort? Not sure if this is accurate as my sister gets confused at times - I think it runs in the family! From what you say it sounds like you had a good time over there so I hope that my niece enjoys it
-
As always - great pics there! I REALLY want to ride Hulk Am I right in thinking that Dragon Challenge used to be Duelling Dragons, or am I thinking of something else?
-
Well it turns out that she has booked DLP for 2 weeks time - am a tad jealous to say the least. She is going on a weekend and worried that it will be busy but I have no idea because I went during a weekday all those years ago. On the plus side, closer to my nieces birthday I should be able to take her to Thorpe Park
