Raptor gives me faith.

That RCT2 scream effect MUST be on there in that case.

If you wanted to be extremely pedantic, it's actually the first park to open and the last park to close.

I've been to parks all over the world okay, and unfortunately its only really a sad fact of life at Thorpe Park.

The adventures of TTF and the Oblivion Fanta advertising speaks otherwise. Just because you're happy to put up with the crap Merlin sometimes throw at its audiences, doesn't mean others are.

Q: "Why doesn't water run off the Earth?"A: There is a vast "ice wall" that keeps the water where it is. This explains why you can find a vast plane of ice as you travel southward. The wall is roughly 150ft high. In the McIntyre model, however, the height of the wall increases further as one moves toward the edge of the world.Genius!

THEY'RE FROM THE 60'S

As I wrote in my blog"And yet I can still call the way the’ve promoted ‘The Swarm’ exceptional and that the park hasn’t hit a duff note on the ride at all. If I was to be a hater, I’d say Swarm is too short, its got trims, it’s a dull colour, the tank is in the wrong place and it has a fake turret, none of the theming will appear or work after its first season and that the actors aren’t out long enough."More then enough criticism to get off on.

Oh B&M and your wonderful ways.

Just lots of corkscrews instead.

Thats right, I'd cancel my pre-booked ticket and my entire trip based on some rain.

Grammar, Spelling and using tenses properly applies to you as well TPGG. If you're going to go around the forum being a little grammar Nazi, you could at least do us the courtesy of using proper English in your posts as well.

This a thousand times. Driving ever closer to me won't make me go faster.

I can sort out your spelling, but I can't change the orientation for you. You need to sort that out yourself using the small arrows below the uploaded picture on Facebook.

Take that you piece of crap! Yes Cat!

Hi, I'm 88 years old and I still pull the queues

My first reaction was.. awesome. It was then.. yeah that music is rather apt. I wish I could say I wasn't surprised by the decision. The way Thorpe has been going the last few rides, it was only a matter of time. One wonders how long the remaining RMC rides have left. I always feel liks Depth Charge, Neptunes Beach, Chief Rangers Carousel and Mr Monkeys are on borrowed time anyway.I just can't see a park where the only family rides are Flying Fish, Storm in a Teacup, Rumba Rapids and Loggers Leap though. They can't really just bulldoze down everything that young kids can get on..

You mean ignoring the fact Samurai at the time was the most intense flat ride the country had ever seen right.

Yeah pretty much. I'm not as gutted as some. I'm probably more sad that it's another part of Thorpe's heritage being ripped up and scrapped.
