So whahat we message our empire to Adam this year?

*prepares for insane song collection*

In comparison to last year not as impressive but could still be promising none the less! It's the Zoo's 85th anniversary so for half term the zoo will be open (as expected) with some guest animals, exclusive shows, animal feedings and a host of other activities available. Ride line up: - Hocus Pocus Hall All guests have to pre book tickets including Annual pass holders but this is free of charge. Thoughts!?

Go join them for the #rant

BANT.

Comment on Thorpes Fakbok "You need to start a trend with this ride. Similar to the #choochoo shoutout while riding minetrain at Towers - but this one should be shout out #brewbrew" #brewbrew

That's pretty groundbreaking news actually wonder what the 2 could mean or symbolise? Exciting stuff

CharlieN was correct

Oh come on theres a lot of poo bums out there who won't read that or understand it *shrugs shoulders* *starts to back away from sticky situation*

The only thing I can see correct in Coaster Jamie's argument is the idea of the general public being let down because let's face it they will! It's being branded as a new experiance but when people visit and find out it's just a re vamped air they will be probably less impressed :/ It's a great idea and looks fantastic and I don't disagree with the marketing technique because let's face it it will do its job of bringing new customers in and old customers back! But going back to my previous comment about customers being disappointed I have had to deal with the confusion and dissapointment previously when working on Scorpian Express. During the first year of the revamp technical issues caused the area to be shut and when explaining to customers in the morning Scorpian Express was closed I would normally get from the parents "oh we were looking for the Runnaway Mine Train" or "hang on that's the brand new ride? That's the Runnaway mine train", "where exactly is Scorpian Express?", "WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO MY BELOVED TUNNELS ON THE RUNNAWAY MINE TRAIN *cri* </3". Some (me included) will love and understand the idea and concept of what they have done and some will love the idea of this crazy new space ride and get confused when visiting the park :S Just as a last example my parents the other night were asking me "So what's the new ride Galectica at Alton Towers?" And I was like oh lol it's just a retheme of Air. Now I must address as well that I know Alton Towers are not labelling it as a new coaster or a new ride as such but when people read "New for 2016 - Galactica" on their website they are not going to expect riding Air with different theming yet again just stating that there will be confusion and complaints. So yeah looks cool, I am not complaining about their marketing technique I know it's what they need to do to bring in the punters, I know if they phrased it differently it would sound lame but we can't hide the fact it's going to mislead customers. If anyone can turn around and say it's not misleading to the General Public .. Good on you

I am actually a lot more happy after seeing that video. I think this will be really popular with the public and can imagine it will get a lot of people talking! Not many people outside the enthusiast community have heard of using VR on roller coasters (well out of the people I know) so I think it will be intriguing to people and possibly a big hit. Although I have a feeling this could make some people seriously disorientated and very ill

So air is becoming Galactica It uses VR headsets *yawns* I would post screenshots but I can't on my phone <\3 can't believe they have still managed to call it a world first I tried to post links and somehow failed at that too :/ go check Alton Towers Twitter you lazy bums Sorry for multiple edits but also worth pointing out that wearing the headsets is optional!

Or not make VR a thing in the theme park world

Requested work off I should be there!

I'm coming

Pretty sure that is not a tower. The design on the right is a shop plan and the design on the right will be what looks like a themed shelf for said shop .. don't know if the floor plans match with WC16 though

TEA Apple or other technology
