  10. It broke down
  11. Would be corrected
  12. Not sure if I'm able to make this one currently, as it greatly depends on transport and sorting hotel rooms etc.
  13. Pretty sure I've seen these type devices before. Definitely recall these appearing at Legoland last year and a Chessington has them as well. helpful to those on low phone low phone power.
  14. Things I'd like to see at Thorpe park An airtime machine coaster A woodie At least 2 new dark rides An air race Another B&M Mack launch
  15. The following Merlin attractiones (at least) could do with major TLC or refurbishment Thorpe/ Colossus Canada Creek (especially loggers) Rumba rapids Ranger county The dome and surrounding area Towers The gardens Smiler Charlie Rita (or just replace with a Mack launch while they're at it) Flume Chessie Everywhere except wild Asia, market square, Africana, Zufari and parts of Mexicana and Transylvania

    Keep the game damn going Thunder or mountain?
  17. By flying around
  18. Thans for the trip report. It really sums up how Oakwood has seemingly gone downhill and backwards this year with its new fastrack system andpoor operations (I bet waitng for 1 train op on speed makes it 1 train Colossus seem pleasant). Having 5 rides down (4 unannounced) is totally unacceptable. I really hope operations and management improve soon, otherwise he park may not exist for much longer (especially when you give a dog a bad name). Thorpe park in comparison is much better run. Rides will go on 2 trains when needed, ride reliability has improved compared to even 5 years ago with slammer and samurai really being the only rides that manage major downtime apart from Stealth's ocassional day, plus they would give extra tickets if they had 5 rides closed too. I remember visitng once last year and I thoroughly enjoyed the park and managed to ride about everything except the pedaloes. Speed and Megaphobia were fantastic and the new Neverland place was decent, plus the after dark events were great fun and at night it's just an amazing place.
  19. I don't like it, sort of ruins the character that area used to have. Quite a shame really, I hope they do carry out further pointless changes regardless of its limited space as it's just ruining the charm of the place.
  20. Not bad, not bad at all Can't say I'm blown away by it, but then this only the showcase version. Looks rather simplistic ATM, but hopefully we'll see ore details when they're actually finished.
  21. So I guess this could be another reason why Saw the ride is your favourite?
  22. This is very concerning and I hope it can be saved as it won't be good if the uk loses another theme park considering we've lost American Adventure, Ocean Beach,Loudoun Castle, Dream Land and Camelot to mention some who have disappeared in the last 10 years from the industry and I don't think we can afford to lose more. Wish I made it to fantasy island now as it not just home to millenium and odyssey but the weird wonderful world that's Seaquarium.
  23. Hope the meet goes well everyone, gutted I couldn't make this one but I'll be there in spirit.
  24. Sounds exciting and full of potential plus I did think the Hocus Pocus brand was starting to get a little outdated. Very glad ride closings gave reverted back to 8pm because it used to close pretty much when when Halloween began and also means more time for night riding again, considering it doesn't get dark til 5-6pm. Really hope I can make a visit to one this year as from I heard last year the event was fantastic especially Black Forest Haunt and Mystery Of Hocus Pocus.
