    Ride Seatbelts

    It's there to calm guests down - simple as.As in the case of B&M coasters - which use ratchet systems for most restraints - there's no physical way of releasing the restraint mid ride. Every single ratchet would have to be completely worn down for it to fully open - by which time, reports of the restraint opening slightly would've been addressed due to guests continually telling the staff/the staff noticing whilst checking restraints.I'm sure most people have experienced an inbetween ratchet ride - where the restraint moves a few cm. The seatbelt just reassures the guest that if the restraint opens further (which, 100%, it wouldn't) they won't fly to their death.
  3. The thing which I mentioned before, just wards that off.. at least it does for myself
  4. Bingos - if you youtube old vampires last day, or something like that.. you can see the mega trench in which the trains flew in through.As electric bill says - there's very noticeable signs of where the floor was lowered throughout the station to accomodate these new trains. I bet, all in all, that this was extremely expensive for chessie (probably almost as much as just getting a new main ride).Stolen from the other vampire topic - which I noticed just now and posted in 2007 - is the video

    Jobs..

    My job has basically put me on compassionate leave. Oh, I love them <3
  7. Beginning of may for me was around 20mins for rides - thats purely because they're awful with ensuring their rides actually are running on full capacity.
  8. You work with food, its a 48hr not working thing! Hope you didn't go in

    SAW: Alive

    I'd imagine it'dve been busy due to it being.. new? Maybe? You know.. people wanting to see what its like.. as its.. new? Yeah..? Oh I dunno.All I know is storm surge is busy only because its extremely popular.
  10. Too much chlorine bleaches peoples clothes .Didn't know Tidal lost its own loop tbh... so, yay for it appearing again?
  11. Controlling relationships, which end up extremely sour and having to put up with it on a daily basis. Meh.

    Th13teen

    I rather enjoy thirteen - its the backwards section and the random launch into station which makes me want to re-ride it.
  13. Well its named after the woman who did it.. and the company named themselves it when they split from Pearsons.
  14. Gardaland needs to hurry up and create english version of their site, so I can look and get excited and want to book a holiday there
  15. Rare?! Someone needs to visit more on quiet days - or ask .

    Legoland

    I hate the cheapness of legoland adverts. Using rides from the other parks is plain annoying.
  19. They closed it? Bloody hell. What useless staff.
  20. Did it get feathers and all sorts stuck to the top of the train and in the wheels and then covered the station afterwards? Definitely have fond memories of it hitting birds.
  21. Now I wish I could go. Oh wait, I have a passport, and free entry... bloody hell, I've gotta go!
  22. Tesco is quite backwards, in that it doesn't advertise store vacancies online. Only head office/admin/management jobs are online. So it involves application into individual stores still!
  23. Nice to know that people you work with steal, and that this actually continues to happen there. Locker rooms, yeah, but not actual lockers. That place is safe!
