Down to what you interpret a ride to be also; a person last week on Stealth informed her group that the worst part of it was going "upside down"!

Gosh, makes you furious doesn't it?

Good to see yourselves and other club members about the park today. Quite a few youngsters on the park when I thought they would be at school.
Last day of the season, unless one is at a corporate event over the next few days. Luckily got the last ride of the season on ............ Stealth.

Was lovely to see fireworks as a backdrop of Thorpe Park. Brings back memories.

This will not be the case, you have my word.

As always, nice to see you - and at Steath! What are the chances!
 
I think we got last ride of the season on DBGT - technically rode it 3 times today as it broke down on second VR section so we got another go

Speaking to the engineering team, and luckily for me, they confirm that we will have at least another ten years of it, the ride that is. The work done on the catch car has actually created a stronger unit than it was originally. Hopefully next year the now planned modifications will not interfere with the season.

I termed it as that to cover the Services Day as well. Somebody did offer to adopt me into their family for the JL do, but I thought it may get too technical, sadly.

God forbid - unless you can take laser type potshots at him.

Happy days!

At least a little more accurate than when LadBible reported on it which stated afterwards she went on rush where the same thing happened. I do like the way both articles make it sound like she walked passed the queue to get off and not use the exit. If she was truly humiliated she wouldn't have gone to the press.

I don't know why, but I could imagine Thorpe building a spinner, and then when they run out of money, they can say it goes backwards the next year

I met a chap at TP on Monday who told me that three years ago he endured "the walk of shame" (his words), by being unable to take a seat on Stealth due to being large.
 
He went away and has shed five stones and is now going to start visiting TP and other parks more often as he is able to ride roller coasters. Proud of his achievement quite rightly, it must be quite distressing for those who cannot shift weight. Me? I'm a lucky so-and-so who has stayed the same weight since I was a yob, some years ago now.
 
With respect to being the wrong size, it does annoy me that people with small children will queue and subject the ride hosts to being seen as "the ogre" due to declining access to that small child, when it is the accompanying adult who is at fault.

I'll keep my eyes on that then............I drink Scotch!

Was he shell shocked then?

Shhh, I'm thinking.

I'm still trying to think about this.
