  1. All the Creeky things seem to be disappearing at the moment.
  2. Probably do a maze on the Transylvania path again hopefully. Would be great to see HITH come back [or something just as good]. Trick Or Treat Wood isn't really a loss [ if it does not return] as I found the walkthrough very weak when I visited the event last year.

    So far the TPM philharmonic comprises, 1st trombone- coaster Jamie 2nd trombone Eqouster Oboe- Matt creek Bass Alrx Percussion Celia Mae We need more instruments! Especially flutes, clarinets, violins, trunpets & cellos.
  4. Rants that are pointless and waste the conversation

    People forget how underestimated the oboe is, it gets frequent solos, has appeared through baroque to modern film music and most importantly. The oboe tunes the orchestra. Next week, the TPM philharmonic, there will be a run through of, Baron 1898 theme Bubbleworks Phantom Manor medley ;)
  6. The ride will be called Aerospin, which is a bit like Skyforce at BPB but will be located on a raising tower instead of a rotating axis. Full details are here http://www.mynewsdesk.com/se/liseberg/pressreleases/this-year-s-new-attraction-at-liseberg-test-your-wings-on-aerospin-1320931?utm_campaign=mm_email_notification&utm_medium=email&utm_source=sendgrid They're also opening a new carousel, restaurant and a new garden on some disused park area too. Apparently the park have ripped out the old wheel and two S&S towers too.
  7. I don't post all the time. But when I do people normally suspect high quality posts, that contribute towards topics and aren't pointless.
  8. OMG, better put another 'I want to ride this but probably won't ride this for a while' comment.
  9. Not at all surprising in all honesty. There goes my summer trips to Thorpe.
  10. The unfortunate thing is, the location of most of our parks prevents them having a super [Disneysque] style motorway or traffic road, which is purely there just to specfically cater for theme park goers. Instead we've pretty much got single carriage roads towards all the parks. Towers is based through long windy countryside roads, aproximately over 10 miles from any main road. For newbies, they could almost argue whether the Uk's 'supposed' biggest theme park is located there. Legoland suffers from being in the middle of a residential area, natural area and also being close distance to Ascot and Windsor castle too. If the park could receive similar lane infastructure to their park drive [2 lanes each way], the road would flow significantly better. Chessington is positioned slapbang in the middle between the motorway and another large residential area and like the other two above, road expansion doesn't look much of an option, unless all those pubs, houses and businesses decided to sell up. Thorpe has the lesser problems here, with it using slightly better infrastructure on the roads, but there is still room for improvement and from time to time, traffic still builds up.
  11. Glad they went original high quality additions, I love consistency. Got to keep things up to date.
  12. Cheesy Dibbles is the other show which is on the main Market Square stage [formerly replacing the Madagascar show before it]. The Pandamonium show is believed to be located on a new stage being built where the Reindeers were [which has been relocated as a result].
  13. I think Pandemonium has potential. It's another new show with a presumably original story and characters. It also means the park will now have at least two shows which may well bring them up as joint second best uk park for shows (which probably isn't saying a lot). The music is also being created by a well known associate (it's not IMA score). Fingers crossed something big is in the works next season too.
  14. Really liking the eiry look of this attraction right now. The iron bridge sure looks the part. Let's hope it lives up to Derren's shows in every way.
  15. Bizarre and random choice of ride from the park (especially since they had a major investment last year). I just hope it's nicely themed and styled.
  16. And true to the rumoured prophecy, the Earl died.
  17. Because we know how successful the Rocket Rods were. However now that I think about, that comparison is obsolete. Merlin Membership didn't replace anything that was much loved.
  18. To be honest, it was a matter of time before they pulled the plug on the membership scheme. Unfortunately like the Rocket Rods, it seemed to be one of those things flawed from the start and having constant glitches throughout it's existence. On the other hand, it's a shame there won't be w system now for those who prefer to pay monthly than all at once for their passes now.

    Anti-Rant

    Congrats on getting the flat and the Uni is pretty good as well. Kind of a pity really this is my last year as the pn there would've been a small proximity of Tpmers. Not to mention one of halls is called Runnymede. Enjoy uni.
  20. Nitrogenie sounds an exciting prospect, despite having not done the one at Towers (yet). Anyone know where this outlet is going? I can only presume the stands, Canada creek ice cream place & Coke refill zone could be possibilities.
  21. This is going to be one hell of a coaster! The junior boomerang also looks a decent ride which will compliment and support Taron well.
  22. Looks visually stunning. Paultons definitely look to be on to a winner here with theming quality there which must be said is the best since Swarm to say the least. I
