  1. According to the ticket prices page, Legoland's car park charge has now risen to £3 which is the first hike (what will no doubt be any through the years) since the pid system came in three years ago.

    Bad news for standard merlin and non pass holder guests. However premium parking as gone down (still too much though).

  2. Though quite a few people seem to shun Depth Charge, I would like it stay for a while as its one of Thorpes classics and the way you enter the park with the beach and the rides in the distance is quite exciting how you're at the start of the thrilling experience.

    With new boats (and what appears to be some tlc to the ride), I can see Depth Charge staying at least three more years.

  3. Its a shame we never got that woodie (where Saw lives now) as not just would we have seen the tunnel restored but (to a degree) improved with the proposals of the train going through a joint tunnel with loggers.

  4. I first rode Bubbleworks when I was around 10/11 - so around 1990/91. I loved it - definitely my favourite ride there at the time (was too scared to go on Vampire back then :ph34r: ). I remember going into the shop afterwards and getting a Professor Burps fizzy pop drink thing (basically a small bottle of fizzy drink but with the Prof on the front). Although I do still ride it when I visit with my niece it just isn't the same anymore. I do still like the music though :D

    I like the music as well, but the ducks literally ruin it for me p,us the fair ground loop cuts are shocking.

  5. Hi all, perhaps a bit off topic but didn't there used to be some sort of small playground near Depth Charge called Sea Snakes and Ladder? Only it used to appear on the attraction list but has disappeared in recent years.

  6. I'm guessing with the delayed opening and lower height restriction that the park must be getting new forward trains for the ride. I still hope they re theme the ride though as it needs it.

  7. I would like to see some sort of new B&M product in Mutiny Bay, probably where the flume is and themed around some sort of Pirate Invasionwhile an updated log flume is built somewhere else in the park.

  8. The headache advert is brilliant. My only concern is that a massive billboard doesn't really fit in with a quiet town in the countryside... And also the advert isn't seared like the buildings are. :P

    To be honest, the Staines area is more of a quarry and waterside area than a country side surrounding unlike Towers, Legoland and Chessington (to a degree).
