[Alton Towers General Discussion]

Anyone know how much parking is and when the opening dates are announced?

[Say Something About The Person Above You]

[2017]

Why would they need to add VR to a coaster? Surely that would just make it worse. Only coasters where it would make any sense are the Fish and X. 

[Instruments]

Congrats that's great, I only ever got up to grade 3 - and for some reason decided to study music (tech) at uni. 

[Music]

Went to see Biffy Clyro last night, was on the barrier for the whole gig - right in front of James. Gig was electric, the atmosphere was fantastic. They played my two favourite songs too, almost fell into a flood of tears.

Spent 4/5 hours in a studio yesterday making recording drums for a sample library, didn't have enough time to record the whole kit (just did kick, snare and a hi hat). 

[Next Roller Coaster]

Spinning inverted Aqua-Trax

[Injuries]

A couple of weeks ago I went into A&E after giving someone a drunken rendition of a piggy back. We fell forward and I cracked my chin. Whilst the glue and wound on my chin have mostly healed my arm is still aching occasionally making it hard to play guitar.

Coffee - Just black

Incase Earth gets invaded by Ziltoidians we know who must brew the cuppa!

 

 

[SIZE RESTRICTIONS - PLEASE HELP]

Although the last time I went to Thorpe was a good few years ago (maybe three or four), they have test seats outside most of the major rides so you should be able to see if you're comfortable in the rides. 

[Blackpool Pleasure Beach]

I couldn't even spin once.

[Sugar in Tea]

Surprised people put 2, did that on my first as that was how many I have with my coffee but found that way too much.

[Halloween fun in Devon?]

No idea if the event is any good, but is a lovely family attraction. http://www.thebigsheep.co.uk/events/details/fright-nights

[Music]

A mega commercial song, even by Ghost's standards but love this tune so much.

 

 

[This Or That]

Haven't been on DBGT but those screenshots look nasty! Gotta go with Money for Nothing.

 

Pancakes or waffles? 

[Fright Nights 2016]

A duck standing in-front of a fire is too gory for Facebook. Someone censor this nonsense. 

[University]

Back to uni for my final year on Thursday 

[Music]

After years of waiting and not being able to go, finally got myself a ticket to see Biffy Clyro in Leeds. Surprisingly incredibly easy getting tickets but have never been so nervous before getting them. 

[Possible Expansion]

Alongside removing Depth Charge, you get a new ride on the location of that & the Fish.

[Possible Expansion]

Get rid of Depth Charge and Samurai, move the Flying Fish to the latter's former position and open something in that space. Not a Larson Looper, they look suckish.

[Blackpool Pleasure Beach]

Surely you won't need to get your hand stamped with the wristbands?

 

@cptnmingo Did you just rip off The Tim Tracker?

[Blackpool Pleasure Beach]

Next time I'm going there I'll head to the 'Spoons outside the park for food instead
