  1. I also added towers ruins (following what happened) and that came 12th. Beat the mine train anyway.
  2. The moment you accidentally tag someone in to a photo on Facebook who has nothing to do with the event and can't delete it
  3. Fairy Tale Brook (1) The Dragon (5) Dragon+ Fairy Tale Brook-
  4. I think the problem with Thorpe is, a lot of their rides are just unreliable. Slammer has been a maintenance & reliability nightmare since the beginning (although when it works, it works very well). Samurai dare I say has been even more unreliable than slammer lately and I'll be staged if it still exists in over three years times considering its died the last few fright nights at least. Tidal Wave seems to get a problem every blue moon and when it does it takes it down for a while, Rumba- judging how long it's been closed compared to usual does make it look like something major has happened preventing it from operating. Saw is just being Saw. I just doesn't seem to be as reliable as the other coasters (which even have their own issues) or even its cousins Speed & Rage etc.
  5. Fairy Tale Brook (3) Pirate Falls (2) The Dragon (4) Dragon+ Falls-
  6. Can safely say this coaster now definitely looks intamin, the track gave it away.
  7. It's good but it's not quite Swarm (though Nrmy is still the superior ride (just))
  8. 8 rides closed on the park's opening day including two majors after 4.5 months? All I can say is,
  9. It's the beginning of the end guys- Photo from Thorpe Park Mania.

    The Blade

    Hmmmmmmmm Lots of trees being removed around the Forbidden Valley, Blade no longer listed on ERT, Blade no longer the map. Sounds like Blade is going to me, plus it would sound most likely SW8 would be built (atleast partly) on the site of this ride (and Ripsaw), seeing that they have to be very clever these days to get anything granted (unless it's lucky enough to be an area where planning isn't needed), especially as the park has its a share of 'local' haters and gets pressurised more and more of the need for a relief road to the park every year. Can see this season being Ripsaw's last as SW8 is planned for 2017 and next year will likely be a construction site.
  11. Work gave three new pieces of music last minute, but was still able to learnt nd play them ok in the end .
  12. I want a VIP walk on Rita I'm going to fall for that view
  13. Fairy Tale Brook (4) Laser Raiders (3) Pirate Falls Treasure Quest (2) The Dragon (3) Fairy Tale Brook+ Pirate Falls- This is going to get personal now
  14. Looks a loverly charming ride at towers. But will it beat Nemesis?
  15. Dragon's Apprentice (1) Fairy Tale Brook (4) Jolly Rocker (3) Laser Raiders (2) Pirate Falls Treasure Quest (4) The Dragon (4) Jolly Rocker+ Dragons Apprentice-
  16. I just really want go (but DISNEY must come first (plus 2016 could be the year it happens)). I don't want to go alone though If I don't go Europa by 2017 I will burn down the other half of Paris
  17. To top all this, my laptop bag broke last night and now I'm going to need to buy a new one
  18. This Thursday- a big perofmrnace of a long piece of music I had to write Next Monday- 15 minute presentation of a musical work Next Tuesday- Learning Journal of another module Next Thursday- Composition of 3 minutes long Next Saturday- Grade 8 Piano This will be a long couple of weeks
  19. Unfortunately Merlin doesn't have disney's budget for maintenance and upkeep [amongst other things] and can't really start repaving pathways, rebuilding facades and queuelines, but at least what they've done so far is a step in the right direction. Must admit the park's upkeep has been slightly better the last few years.
  20. Colossus isn't too rough in my eyes and whilst its not as smooth as swarm & inferno I'd say it's been running smoother the last 2/3 years compared to how it used to be. Would still like to see those new trains like the ones at Cinciatta World in Italy as they look more comfortable and roomy too.
  21. Dragon's Apprentice (2) Fairy Tale Brook (3) Jolly Rocker (3) Laser Raiders (3) Pirate Falls Treasure Quest (3) The Dragon (4) Dragon+ Dragons Apprentice-
  22. Double Post Guys!!!! However, part two is here of the trip to Southend. What adventures shall be lurking in this next installment? Has all this Gforce been too much for Peaj to handle and how long will it take before Mer & Paige get off fireball? Wait and see!
  23. Plus they get free refills on drinks, whilst us premium & standards have to fork out 75p everytime we do so (free until 2014).
  24. New Stealth sign, swarm billboard, depth charge refreshed, bush BBQ, Amity theming TLC and the rest Loving these little touch ups here,
  25. I think I'm warming to this attraction now.
