  1. ^ I don't know about it closing in the rain (probably what you said), but I know it closed during a storm due to the amount of static energy in the air, apparently the hydraulic launch system doesn't like it.

  2. If it's a nice day, people will want to stay, and if they are able to stay, they are more likely to recommend the park to other people. It would have been odd to throw away all that money. People are also more likely to buy merchandise now that they have more time. It improves guest experience staying open later, making the day more memorable.

  3. What frustrates me most about the Thorpe Shark is that they have the nuts to call it a hotel! It's a small room that leads straight into the open air. It doesn't even have internal corridors, its own decent restaurant, a shop, an attached reception, or anything else to do other than sleeping or visiting the park.

  4. Well... err... that's a bit, small. Can't they at least add a facade to the containers to maybe hide them?! At first I was against this, then I was excited when I saw the Shark plans, now I know what it looks like, I'm dissapointed. Just about sums up every Merlin project really. :(

  5. I'd like for the pre-show building to have a cattlepen installed, with space for theming. Then use the pre-show screen to show the animals on the ride, to give you something to look at whilst in the queue. The first half of the original pre-show (the Chase part) would play every two mins or so, in order to not loose the story, but ditching the cringe worthy lemur. This would decrease running costs (not having to pay staff for the voice over) and probably improve guest experience.
