Your not wrong there. My family don't like X at all, infact, they refuse to go on it. I believe, if the promising marketing images are close to the standard we are getting we're in for a treat. Wicker man is going to have some of the best themeing in the UK, so I hope, with the Walking Dead, this will have some brilliant themeing. Don't Judge it until you've experienced it.

My first ride I believe was Flying Fish. Then Tidal Wave back in 2014 I believe

Um. Around 1 hour away. Closest park to me I believe!

What in the world... Ask a stupid question, get a stupid answer. Haha!

That's great news actually. Pleased about Thorpe's opening and operating times this year Unlike Alton

I doubt they’d stay the same now due to the colossal backlash from the GP. I just hope the forbidden valley opening time is moved back and also the Congo river rapids to have increased operating days in the year. I hope...

Ooo! I’m now getting excited for this 2018 development! X has always had a charm to me and I hope now they are giving it some attention it can become a great attraction. Currently, it isn’t the best... My dad says it’s so bad he won’t go on it! I disagree, but I do hope he’ll change his mind next year!

I have! This years Fright Nights...

I like Colossus too @CharlieN! It has some kind of weird charm to it and I just love the ride in general. There’s only been once where I’ve been on Colossus and there has been no head banging, but it was one of the best coaster rides I’ve had so far. Colossus is special to me, and apart from the head banging, it’s a great ride. Maybe it needs softer and padded restraints, like the smiler. So it doesn’t hurt when it gives you a battering .

Congratulations Nemesis Inferno. Tbh it's not my favorite but on the back row it gives you a brilliant ride!

I love it! In my opinion I think it would work well with X’s 2018 retheme. or... I wonder if it will get a new Imascore soundtrack too?

Wow! That’s great to hear. I love Thorpe’s new soundtracks so this is great news for me. I may get it, I guess it depends...

I was thinking of how the rollercoaster bit will fit in... we’ll have to wait & see.

Well, we can’t really judge it until we’ve experienced it...

I’m actually rather excited for this. I think it will really bring back some life into X. I honestly can’t wait . This may be an unpopular opinion of it, but I think at least X is getting some love.

Honestly, I would hate for X to leave if that is the case. For me, X has a special charm to it, so when I go to Thorpe; riding X is a must! X having a refurbishment half way through the year suggests that X is probably not leaving. Maybe the front blue pyramid is just being replaced? X could just be having TLC. Until we know more, I don’t really know what’s going on...
