Don't you mean Hexample

All sounds pretty exciting (bar the slightly expensive price tags), about time we finally had something positive after the continuous negative slack from the Smiler accident. Hopefully the 'no pass discount' is only a tempory thing as I'm sure I heard somewhere its hoped to be sorted soon.

Sounds like you had a Hexciting trip, I'm certain that thunder was because it was my birthday that night

Banned for judging someone just because they haven't made a meet in a while

seeing that I enjoy Swarm, I'd probably like Baron when/if I get to ride it (big emphasis on the if) I actually like Thirteen (too), yes it could be better, but I still find a great family thrill coaster with a decent chunk of effects and theming. Of course, I try to leave judgement until I've actually experienced an attraction, even then it might need several rides on something to get an opinion, like how on my second ride on Valhalla made it go to the top of the top 10 UK dark ride list and in my first three rides on Smiler the ride went from no.1 to 5th and then off the top ten altogether. From what I've seen and heard, Efteling isn't a park renowned for leading innovative rides like phantasia, Europa or even (to a lesser extent) Alton Towers, but one that's full of charm, history and creative quirky themes and stories. I'd ride Droomvluct, Vogel & Fate Morgana anyday.

My only guess is there's a major problem with the trains or brakes, but it's Rita at the end of the day.

I guess we won't see major vertical construction until at least September/October time Judging by the hefty ground work we've seen so far, I think it's looking pretty fees able for an early summer opening now (maybe June), though that's not a bad thing as I expect to be hammering on with my final uni year March-may.

Well it looks like I passed second year of university gaining B's (or 2.1's) in everything which makes me quite, although got to keep my game up for third year as it'll likely be very committing and stressful and I would really like to get a first if I can.

I'm late on this band wagon it seems. My cheekiest experience was definitely the first time I went here. It was for my (then) college mate's 17th birthday (wow 3 years ago now) and half the class and I attended. It was a great laugh and plenty of banter. Many did cheeky refills (even if they didn't refill properly) and others did mixing of the spicy sauces, (one was even dared to drop a bit of the spicy one down his nose (though he didn't)). I remember my first time well, loads of laughs there too. Last nandos for me was last Christmas so I'm probably due another visit soon.

*blows the cobwebs* Chessington needs a lot of investment currently to bring it back near to the golden days (1987-1999), here's what I would do 2016 Tomb Blaster re themed to a new lost mystic ride with new top notch effects, interactive theming along with new soundtrack by Ima score, capacity increased on ride too. Dragons fury completely repainted with new signage themed queue with effects (because it's the first thing most guests will see when the north car park is used) Forbidden Kingdom plaza completely refurbsuhed similar to Market Square, 2017 Bubble works is completely restored to its original form but given some more modern touches such as wall projections and effects and the theme tune resynced like it used to be, the ride will be spots erred by coke but loosely. Vampire repainted with rebuilt new theming and interactive queue features, chandeliers replaced 30th anniversary throughout the season with special events and a light show projected on the mansion at the end of the year Sea lion bay updated to become more interactive 2018 Skyway safari removed and replaced with more modern updated version which will take a new route including going near zufari New show to replace Madagascar Sea Storm given Europa treatment Burger kitchen rebranded to become more spooky based 2019 Brand new family coaster like juvelin built on the site of toadies and peeking heights site, Rattlesnake theming repaired 2020 Dragon falls rethemed 2021 temple of mayhem replaced by dark ride like Arthur at Europa park

That darn beggar women causing havoc again :< Charlie is literally the worst ride ever, someone bring back Toyland Tours or re theme it alongside a mack powered inverted coasterEdit- why didn't I notice that typo

No idea what this is yet' but as Jamie's said, chances are it'll either be a Tomb Blaster re theme (due to ancient look of the clips) or so,etching new for Howl'Oween as they usually receive something new for that each year (hopefully Hocus Pocus Mystery & Haunting in the hollows will remain). I strongly doubt we will see a new ride next year as besides being Chessington, they we need to send planning out by now which even for something medium we would've probably had to seen already.

*IMPORTANT INFO* Whilst this trip is still scheduled to be going ahead at the present time, there has been no news yet on when the Scenic Railway may reopen. Should there be no news 3 days prior to the trip (Wednesday night) then this trip will be postponed or canceled.

It's only just struck me how 90% of terror tomb was recycled to be used in the Tomb Blaster re theme in 2002, which means much of the additions are over 20 years old. It shows how lazy things got around that time when the only new additions were a giant snake and lasers. 5th dimension & terror tomb definitely look superior rides to what we've got now (from their time).

It does look an almighty impressive coaster" If Fluch is anything to go by then it should look amazing when the theming is completed next year.

Ok, whilst some have recently ticked chunks off their to do list, my trips have very much stagnated [like much of the uk parks]. However fear not, as I have created another Creaky video [however hopefully this one won't open the gateway to hell like the last one did] by the way this is just a bit of fun

Looks a beutiful ride I'm struggling to resist jealousy right now jack & josh

so angry birds will be legofied it seems

Katy Perry tried to buy out a convenient today' Unfortunately the residents would have nun of that

We need more abroad meets! How was Taron's construction by the way?

Well Blackpool did kind of do an opening ceremony for Sky a Force this year with the cutting of the ribbon, park management being on site and the red arrows flying over, I'll that there. Even so, UK definitely needs more of these style things like Europa and much of America, I doubt WC16 & SW8 will open any opening fanfare that's a patch on this. I won't do my usual statement of 'I haven't been here' or 'I really want to go here soon' thing. (Matt Creaked)

Oh Chessington!

So beutiful!

Ok, so I went to Legoland yesterday with Fish, Myk, Stacey and Taron yesterday and had a great day. Legoland Windsor Date 27/06/2015 Park open 9:30-19:00 Rides closed none that I'm aware of Park busyness Very Busy Ride count Star Wars Sky ride Mini land Fairy Tale Brook Boating School Atlantis Dino Safari Mia's a Riding Adventure Olivia's House Laser Raiders Viking River Splash Loki's Labarynth Spinning Spider Jolly Rocker Pirate Falls Knight Quest Dragon 4x Pros Getting four rides on the Dragon Getting the last ride of the day on dragon Park staff very friendly Heart lake City has had more theming added and looks nicer Legoland hotel buffet was really good Lego fries Spinning ridiculously fast on spinning spider (I think our spinning is only second to Peaj's) Getting the back row on a Jolly Rocker The fast moving queues of Atlantis,Vikings and Mia Dragon was running well (and on three trains) Crazy Horses (Mia's riding adventure) Getting my 15th visit collectors brick The lack of traffic when leaving Legoland (best I've seen it on a park day for a while) Park closing extended to 7pm (previously 6pm) Creams (need I say more) The company (of course), made a good trip a great one Cons Some Lego water features were dry including the entrance to Loki's and the drunk monk in dragon Park was very busy with several queues exceeding an hour Squid Surfer's left turntable broke down around 11am when we were still 30 people away from getting our ride (which on something like this is easily a 30 minute plus queue) Ice cream machine in the bricks restaurant was broken Not receiving park discount on my drink at Piratew BBQ, £2.50 is far too much for a bottled soft drink (even in a Themepark) Some guests seemed problematic (but unfortunately you get that on hot busy days) Knights Castle needs a good clean p,U.S. There was a pigeon Colony in the first turret (most of the shields have been removed) Receiving noticeable sun burn on the neck (worst sun burn for four years) Despite those flaws was still a great and really enjoyed it. Massive thanks goes to fish for collecting me to and from Legoland and Myk for organising this, whom without I wouldn't have been able to go.
