Don't think I'll be able to make this one as I'm pretty sure I'm still away, but have great time guys! -

Imperial Leather Ketchup or Mayonaise?

TBH, Rita is such a good ride, it makes even a train 4 ride on the Smiler look like Nemesis

The problem with Chessington's car parks is that the north car park near Fury is located on green belt land and apparently there's only so much they're allowed to do when it comes to maintaining it there, even filling in potholes and the like. I strongly doubt we'll see major expansions at Chessington due to the reasons above and with issues such as strict council regulations, the (apparent) land slidng and that when vampire can't operate anymore Chessington looks to be (in quite a few ways) doomed for the near future in regards to expanding and progressing (unless they can find more land nearby or rules of planning are relaxed). Whilst Legoland have a similar problem in regards to shortage of land, at least they're building restrictions are slightly better.

Tbh for a ride that's in its 16th year, it doesn't look too bad, although could still do with some TLC. If I'm honest I do think Legoland's upkeep has gone down hill a little recently, with effects such as the dragon breathing not working and the head in a downwards position too (which detracts the ride for me). Also Fairytale Brook has a noticeable number of broken effects which have been there since the end of last season (which for a recently refurbished ride is very disappointing) on top of the fading city models and removed features on the city train as well. Whilst Pirate falls looks nice and fresh, I wasn't really impressed by the new storyline or the whole area retheme

Lidl Crusty bread or bread rolls?
-
KMG Smiler or Saw?
-
SW8 will be coming to towers for 2017 as I'm aware. From what I've heard it'll be very exciting (sounds better than Smiler) and there are two locations currently planned, one which will see us saying goodbye to a ride or two.

Banned', cos I'm Professor Drunk

Well had my first rides on Nemy again this weekend after nearly a year and can certainly say, the rides fantastic, the way it flus through twists, turns and corners gaining speed and power through the amazing landscape too whilst still being very smooth 20 years later, Whilsts it's a shame the blood waterfall won't be returning for the foreseeable future, it's easily the best uk ride and I love it and could easily spend all day riding it.

Towers meet was awesome, had a great time and perhaps my favourite meet so far. Rides were excellent, Cbeebs land looked great. Thirteen, Air and Blivvy were great fun and Nemesis is certainly my favourite coaster and was amazing. It wipes the floor with inferno (sorry jack).

Banned for explaining Angry birds land is better than Diagon Alley.

Voted Ben and sorted.

Nemesis (by a finger nail) Ripsaw or Ramesis Revenge?
-
Sensei. Pizza Hut a Buffet or Pizza Pasta Buffet (Merlin).

Looks a great dark ride/coaster. Whilst it's certainly not on the leages of such rides as Wodan and Blue Fire (after all it's a family coaster) it looks a rather fun and immersive ride experience with some great theming and effects too, certainly very close if not, on a par with Disney's latest additions. Whilst I'm not the biggest fan of IPs (unless they're in places like Disney and universal and other movie based parks), Europa have related snogger fantastic addition which has been perfected very well.

Very pleased Cabin won, after all I found this a great maze last year with choosing routes, some interesting and slightly scary scenes (the mask one to start) and also the actors around which really helped tell the story too. Putting Asylum aside, this was my favourite of the new additions and certainly better than MBV & Blair Witch.
