  1. Cheers for the picture Whiteknuckle.Cement lorry back? Ah well from what I saw yesterday there wasn't much left to pour. Fingers crossed that they push on with circuit construction after the weekend....
  2. It was taken from Storm Surge but Ive trimmed the picture so you can't see the lifthill
  3. Wanna bet? I've knocked together a few pictures from my trip today, I'll be honest the quality is shocking but then I only had my camera phone with me, was just quick shots too as I was with a non enthusiast and the weather was all over the place from one minute to another. In brief:-- New banner went up this afternoon above the fence next to Stealth- Concrete mixers seem to have left the site- Few workmen working on a footer just before the station, other workmen just working on the maintenance bay roof- An absolute ton of supports/ track has been layed out at the top of the site (more than what I've seen in the most recent pictures anyway)That's about all I can think of for now, construction was very very very slow today Again, sorry about the picture quality...
  4. Was just browsing through some pictures on 'Fotowhizz' and came across this http://fotowhizz.com/thorpe/lc12/Sep%2011/003.htm Look below "War Is Coming", it reads supplied by tanksforsale.co.uk.It's like one big theming shopping list on there Sorry to bring up something from 5 pages back but hopefully this concludes the whole matter now
  5. I've managed to grab a selection of screenshots from 'Red or Black' last night with some aerial shots of the new Islands, sorry about the picture quality (ITV )So for anyone interested..I can upload the rest upon request
  6. Fantastic stuff, much appreciated Just been going through some of the plans again and noticed there appears to be some sort of upturned caravan at the station entrance which I somehow haven't notcied before. I'm not sure if this has been mentioned somewhere but I've attached a picture.....
  7. I would hazard a guess as to it being one of the SUDS being dug out.
  8. Some sort of watch camera was on his wrist and the photo was taken quickly as Stealth reaches maximum height, so he says on the video description.....There also seems to be a multitude of videos appearing featuring numerous actors playing the "Les Coogan" role with security in tow, interacting with the GP. I have to say I'm continually impressed with how everythings going at the minute
  9. Moving back towards an "on topic" direction...Attached is a rather handy little screenshot I've saved from a Swarm update on youtube. I think this gives everyone a nice idea towards the state of play onsite, the shot was taken on the 4th.By the looks of things we should begin to see some vertical construction very soon B)Credit to "James Salter" for obtaining the shot.
  10. To be honest, I've never really noticed any rough patches along the track. I'm usually more concerned with the cramped seating and restraint digging into my legs
  11. Oh yes this is cringe TV at it's best, the producers know exactly what reaction it will cause.My current top 3 most hated are:-Glee Strictly Come Dancing The Apprentice Oh and a special mention to The Only Way Is Essex, just awful
  12. Just going back slightly to some concern that was voiced about a week or so ago about the future of the SG, if you look over on the Swarm topic on TTF it appears a new path has been placed just inside Stealths queueline.So all good.......for now that is!
  13. Hey Matt, I'm great thanks...yourself?

  14. In a nutshell I think we will see a website launched similar to Raptors offering things such as:-- Ride name (or at least a more specific project name as a follow up to the "WAR" logo).- A more detailed write up to the current block of writing on LC12.net- Some sort of bootcamp competition to be one of the first riders- Another sign up to newsletter link- Construction webcam- Teaser images, wallpapers- Teaser videos to run every 4-5 weeks until official opening20hrs to go!
  15. Love the selection of pictures, I find these sorts of things really fascinating. Theres some great videos on Youtube posted by some urban explorers.I believe Batman:the ride was moved to Six flags Fiesta but I'm amazed theres been no takers for Mega Zelph, mind you the ride must be pretty rotten by now....
  16. Sorry to hear about that......Reminds me of the time I had just spent a load of money on a classic mini. I was staying at a relatives house for the night and when I came down the next morning they had ripped all the badges off, attempted to break into the boot with some sort of screwdriver and rubbed dog mess all over the windows...... More recently I've caught someone on a couple of occasions opening their car door onto mine in Tescos, now that really grates!
  17. Welcome to the forum Louise, It's nice to see someone bringing some fresh enthusiasm! I wouldn't rack your minds too much over the "LC" meaning, as with the SAW project it'll be more than likely just some throw away codename. Things will become much clearer once we hit August 1st.As for the trains, I keep seeing visions of some F16 fighter jet style decals covering the gimbals, seatbacks etc...Got thinking about possible names last night and started typing apocalyptic type names into google and wiki, quite like the idea of "Ragnarök" which in old norse implies "final destiny of the gods"

    Television

    I've just caught up on I player, wasn't too bad although I found it took a while to pick up the pace. I'll put that down to a general character introduction..... Liking the special effects, wouldn't it be awesome to see Doctor Who with this sort of budget
  19. Ever stop to think and forget to start again?

    Logger's Leap

    Funny you should say that, I was thinking the same when I rode earlier this season (the speeding up part that is). How bizzare...
  21. Finally some foundations going in! Now we should start to see things kick on at last
