I'm not sure if I have a phobia of anything but I do have a fear of drowning by floods in buildings or underground.

I'm likely to do every ride cycle if I can. How many rides are we likely to get for the ERT?

Vertical Shambhala or Silver Star

I have a phobia of roller coasters

This ride seems to lack energy and it doesn't really build up speed during the circuit. The backwards launch looks pretty Cool. The layout looks okay and quite fun but it just lacks energy from what I've seen. Shame they removed a classic log flume that looked perhaps the slightly better of two.

Really enjoyed this meet at Legoland. The rides were very enjoyable despite there only being one or two thrilling ones and the new Duplo Valley area looked excellent and much better than it did before. I would like to thank Peaj for organising a brilliant meet and everyone who attended. Roll on ERT Stay tuned for my trip report and movie.

Here's some photos Theme uk recently uploaded showing the current state of the park. http://themeuk.net/blog/?p=4164

According to Themepark Guide , Chessington aren't allowing anyone to take photos of Ramesis at the moment (perhaps due to embarrassment or ongoing work). However there is a truck on site near Hocus Pocus with equipment to take the ride apart. Is this really the end of Ramesis Revenge? https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=509717699083534&set=a.166428706745770.47984.163052343750073&type=1&relevant_count=1&ref=nf

Here's the current state of Mine Train reported from Themepark guide. http://www.themeparkguide.biz/news-page/19th-june-2013-runaway-minetrain-upgrade Appears the walkways are being redone but seems the rock work won't be returning for a while (sad times). I wonder when/if the ride will reopen this year?

As a themepark enthusiast, I thoroughly enjoy visiting themepark and attractions and trying out new rides and experiences. However there are many themeparks and attractions out there that I dream of visiting and have yet to visit. So the question is, which ten themeparks and/or attractions in the world would you like to visit that you haven't seen yet and why? For me, the list has to be 10/ Gardaland, Merlin international sister park which has the exciting looking Raptor 9/ Heide Park, I like the look of all those rides plus Kraken too 8/ Disney Land Paris, looks amazing and magical with exciting rides plus the nearest big park to uk 7/ Knotts Berry Farm, lots of roller coasters and a big sized park 6/ Sea World, amazing area with a great sea theme 5/ Phantasialand, Black Mamba looks amazing 4/Universal islands of adventures, one word, Harry Potter world 3/ Walt Disney World, amazing giant scale rides there 2/ Port Aventura, Shambhala looks mind blowing 1/ Europa Park, just watching videos of the place has made me fall in love with the park it looks wonderful.

Best luck with it jack, hope it goes well. I have now finished my college course (L3 music Practice) which I have achieved a grade of triple distinction star (D*D*D*) which is equivalent to three A stars. Apparently I'm only the third person ever on my course to have achieved it. I feel over the moon about my results. Meanwhile, the rest of my class apparently are badly behind work (perhaps more so than the smiler) which is a shame for them.

Can't wait Til the 2013 forum awards, hope to win or become runner up in something (although not storm surge). That being said, I don't want to rush the rest of 2013 as we are only halfway through the year so far and I'm yet to be Marmalised.

Well I didn't see this coming old Rammy getting broken down to the degree that ride may no longer be able to operate in its current form. On the positive note, least no one got hurt. I'm so glad I was able to go on it at the Chessie meet especially as the ride's future is now uncertain.

The Smiler Coke or Pepsi?

And make the entrance more grand and exciting. On another note, re-reroute the queue and bring back the original entrance.

Yep, I booked my one a week or two ago. I would suggest buying a ticket ASAP as it usually sells out 1-2 weeks before the night and this one could be popular being 90s anthems.

Less than a week now before I see all you loverly people's again. During the trip, I shall bring my secret weapon along, the camera to capture photos and videos of the trip for a possible movie.

Banned for buying his pass at Chessington.

Apparently sayings have now emerged that Oblivion's lift hill chain snapped yesterday and may have a lengthily time closed. Seems to be going heads up for towers ATM especially with all the Smiler problems recently.

I believe the brickwork pictures is actually additional theming for the (now rethemed) Flying Jumbos and has been there since the start of the season.

Banned for getting Envious about going on the Smiler.
