Closed Rides
They've removed all the easy to remove stuff to be fair to them . Otherwise it doesn't hurt, its not like its blatently obvious sponsorship and its not harming them financially!

Chessington General Discussion
Which isn't true really. Once you've done peeking or rameses for the same amount of time, you really have nothing to complain about.Seastorm is pretty bloody good actually.

Queue Times
Scrollerboards can have anything, doesn't matter. So you could really have "F***ing Colossus is 289463937mins long BRAP!!!11" scrolling across if you want.

Queue Times
If you're talking about physically queueing for rides.. longest I've ever queued was probably 70mins for Colossus and that included a shutdown. I'm not stupid when it comes to queueing

Alton Towers Trip Reports
Slow way of going by train.. St Pancras to Derby is a hell of a lot quicker reading by your journey times.. got to alton in about 3hrs. Got to love the buses there though, and I do prefer pendilinos to meridians but whatever!Nice trip.. the rocking horse wasn't working last week either. Mental about the queues though, maximum we queued when we went during easter holidays was like 20mins! Mental s**t
