Park Operations
Is Vortex still closed? The TP twitter claim only Tidal and Samurai are down, but on TPQT, Vortex has been closed throughout

Shark Hotel Question
Would it be possible to be able to book a room for one of the Sundays for fright nights and go in the park on the Monday too, I see no option for this, or ticket types, would this be possible? sorry for really bad explaining

Your Thorpe Park Photos
I took these on my trip back in may 2013 (everything was walk on that day too, even swarm and inferno was on 2 trains, was nice)

Park Operations
Because they think a 45 minute queue is still low demand

SAW: The Ride
http://gyazo.com/59d6c0626af4756350ae3648ffb962f8 seems that it's having a training procedure according to ride on review facebook page, if I can see that correctly the front seat harnesses look like they're open in the middle of the day

Samurai
Could also depend on who's operating it tbh

Samurai
I remember my first ride on samurai in 2013 in july, when it was really really busy (I went for a school trip) and I must have been on it for a good 4 minutes, and it was a lot more than 2 rotations each side and it was running fast, and the queue was about 40 minutes too! it must have been on a good setting that day because I felt really sick after, it's a shame it's running so slow now :l

The Smiler Incident 02/06/2015
tiny bit off topic but what made me wonder was this http://gyazo.com/c8ca3c1c171d22df547acd7d679dd618 I understand the GP's concern and all, but I doubt the ride will be closed down completely, I would still happily ride it if it opens back up, I just think it's the media blowing it out of proportion and people reacting to it way more than they should

Adventure Island TR - May 27th 2015
Hey guys, new here, I had a trip down to Adventure Island yesterday and I wanted to post a little Trip Report Park Open: 11am Park Close: 10pm Rides Closed: None I got to the park at about 12pm and left at 10pm (closing time on this day), first thing I noticed the park was really busy (of course it would be) but the rides queues were really short, shorter than expected. I hadn't been down here in about 4 years so it was nice to see the park still having short queues. First ride of the day was Rage, it was running 2 trains (3rd was having its wheels replaced but later was put on and had people loaded on it within about 2 test runs) Great operations I must say. The line was moving very very fast and no more than 5 minutes at all. We then headed on Skydrop, a good drop ride for what it offers. after, I went on time machine, now, I wanted to ride this when it opened but because it opened like a year late I never got the chance, needless to say I will never be going on it again, that thing was just so intense that I almost blacked out and came off almost sick (yikes), was glad I did it though, after we went on rage again (almost a walk on queue so how could we not?) and headed on some other rides on the other side of the park, had multiple re rides on pretty much everything and overall was a great day out (I only live about an hour away so it was a short trip) Operations 10/10 fast moving lines on every ride Staff, 10/10, all the staff were nice, fun, and did their own little stuff on the rides Day out, 9/10 Park was busy, very busy despite not many lines for the rides. Ride count: Rage - 17 Skydrop - 3 Time Machine - 1 Green Scream - 2 Over the hill - 1 Scorpion - 2 Dragons Claw - 2 Ramba Zamba - 1 Mighty Mini Mega - 1 Barnstormer - 1 Archelon - 1 Vortex - 1 Sk8borda - 1 Pharaohs Fury - 1 Fireball - 1 Devils Creek Gold Mine - 1 Helter Skelter - 1 Serpent Slide - 1 A very good day with lots of rides!
