  1. Spose its cos of runaway always being the quietest of the 6 on EXP which has led to its removal. I'd presume that would've removed the EXP entrance as well - no stupid waiting on the stairs for noone to come anymore.I've also heard of the RMT repaint - and most of the effects in the queue working again. Noice, lets hope its happened so I can disregard my 2007 post above. Christ, over 2yrs ago!

    Spinball Whizzer

    Sounds like flying fish person. "Alright dudes keep those fins inside the fish" "and welcome to sonic spinball". Eurgh.
  3. Thank god they're back to what they should always be called. Someone obviously set marketing straight
  4. Which is free if you're with alliance&leicester which it clearly states
  5. Remember your entrance ticket.
  6. You'll only be able to work 8hrs a day, chessie became rather strict on that, quite naturally. This'll include the extended open hours

    Nah don't need them, however I'm sure me rides medical will tell me otherwise.

    It's written into contract.Talking about contracts, I got mine for another theme park through today, and by golly gosh its almost word for word like chessie's.
  9. Yeah, they could've easily told everyone who booked hotels and tickets and all sorts for the first weekend that its closed. Make sense.I can only imagine that things were set back by the lovely biggest snowfall in 30yrs stuff. Seeing as that was pretty recent, and with the coollddd conditions up north atm, cant be helped.Towers have been amazing for half terms before, its a shame its been affected this time.
  10. There's loads of unsung heroes around every park. Have you ever started at 6am to clean retail and F&B units before moving onto your normal dept for the day? .Loads of depts go unnoticed, every dept has at least one fantastic worthwhile person, its what makes the parks that bit special is that there are loads of people who genuinely care about it all.
  11. Someone we know has an amazing story of how they were plonked onto operating corkscrew in a yorkshire park with no training. Epic!I doubt its much to do with H&S regulations, its more to show the competance of the park and their operators should something go wrong. There's very little training on some rides at a theme park I know as well.
  12. Spinball looks terrible! Yay for another tussauds type sponsorship
  13. Yay they've stopped making market square look like a building site during the winter. About time

  15. ..My post says how you get a car to yourself. Just visit 95% of the time, no queue, get car to self.

    Yeah it says control. Replacing what used to say "race control".
  17. Go pretty much 95% of the time then lol. Very rarely have I walked in on a queue.

    Loving all the PR poo in there as well, especially "Rollercoaster endurance".. one hour of air.Is that to test boredom levels ready for new ride?

    Rita

    Haven't heard anything which suggests the actual rita name is going. Wouldn't be surprised if it stayed, as rita is a brraaanndd
  21. I would say make the most of it. The smarter you are, the better impression you give off. It's one of the categories in their little checklists anyway.
  22. I have a gigantic alton towers mug, it holds like 5 cups of tea worth. It's amazing, yet so so heavy
  23. Nice to be against the rules sometimes eh? Be careful with that water though, they had a few times where the chlorine was too strong and stained peoples clothing, and other times where peoples hands have had lovely infections. But then again, it does say to keep hands and arms inside of boat

    The Challenge #2

    Just a shame that 8carl8 is winning something he did on his uni course, instead of something we had to do within like 3 days.
