Oakwood
To be fair to oakwood if you bought your ticket online its only an extra 50p and seeing as more and more theme park tickets are bought online these days that isn't too bad a price increase to be honest.

It doesn't help that the fast track queue lines are the ride exits so that doesn't help. Don't get me wrong I like my home park but I just find it a bit stupid how they have implemented this system to a park that only has low throughput rides with the highest being Megafobia and even that can't cope with it!

Oakwood
It does... It runs on Speed, Megafobia, Bounce, Drenched, Treetops and Skull Rock...

Oakwood
They started trialling it, during the last few firework afterdark events and it worked "Well" , (I use the word "well", VERY loosely) enough so that this system was implemented this year. Luckily normal days when they dont have special events on it is fine like when I went in may although it is a nightmare on days where the opening is longer like it is currently...

Yes £10 for 1 single go on 1 ride or I think £20 for unlimited goes on all rides... tbh in a park that small, fasttrack or queue bounce as oakwood call it does seem a bit stupid...

Colossus
I find Colossus equally as good/bad on all the rows tbh I enjoy the back rows more if I'm honest.

Fright Nights 2014
From what I heard they are definitely replacing the maze with something else. I heard from workers I know there at thorpe it is getting replaced, so I have every faith that they aren't leaving that space to waste.

Cinecittà World
from the website: I google translated that and it comes out as: "The park will open July 24 at 10:00 as you'd expect" Don't know where the as you'd expect bit came from but the main part is perfect and it will open on 24th of July. Source: http://www.cinecittaworld.it/ Here is some more info about the park, the park is separated into movie sets and T buildings. With 10 inversion coaster, Altair in set 7 and and freefall drop coaster, Darkmare - Till the last circle in T2 etc.

Next Big Thing - 2016 Development ?
The fact it vibrates so bad, they look like they have really bulked up that girder so that it doesn't vibrate so hard, although it still looked a little jolty at points on that video.

Bit surprised that drayton beat thorpe from what I have heard about drayton. Who knows maybe merlin need to think like BPB and get lots of woodies in different shapes and sizes

Next Big Thing - 2016 Development ?
They have certainly bulked up the girder that holds the seats. I'm guessing they (sort of) learnt their lesson from Baco lol.

Europa Park
It was going to happen sooner or late I feel: Europa-Park has finally announced its water park. general facts: - in development for 3 years now, but the idea has been around for 10 years - at 30 ha (74 acres), it will be the biggest in Europe, and one of the biggest in the world - inspired by international parks such as "Siam Park" (Tenerife) and "Great Wolf Lodge" (Wisconsin), but also local parks like "Titisee" en "Erding" - polls have shown the guests want slides, not wellness - there will be a lazy river, slides of every kind and lots of them, water playground, waterfalls, surf simulator - no Olympic pool - between 400,000 and 600,000 visitors a year - construction will take 18 to 24 months - cost of "triple digit" millions euro, no state subsidies indoor area: - divided in themed areas, no common tropical theme - will be open year-round - will have a restaurant - up to 5,000 guests a day outdoor area: - wave pool, beach area, slides, gardens - open from June to September - up to 3,000 guests other facts: - the park will be built on the other side of town, a bus line will connect the current park and the hotels - guests currently stay an average of 1.2 nights, the park hopes to raise this to 1.8 nights - a 6th hotel is in planning stages, will be built right after the Waterpark source: http://www.badische-zeitung.de/europa-park-gibt-erste-details-zu-wasserpark-bei-rust-bekannt & http://www.badische-zeitung.de/live-ticker-der-europa-park-stellt-wasserpark-plaene-vor
