300 tickets is a drop in the ocean, it barely makes an impact on queue times.

Merlin have a dartboard with loads of costs on it.

Raptor is How sad is it that from those POV's you can see where there is buckets of hang time and doeses of air time; it's simply marvellous.Thorpe's version is going to have to do more then just take me upside down to impress.

I like you, you can be the last to die.

I'll give you that one, shame that it is quite literally in a place where no one can see it especially with all the new fencing around Colossus.Is it working still?Doubly shameful that it's Colossus's only piece of true theming to

Out of interest, show me a fantastic piece of theming at Thorpe that isn't just an iconic part of a ride but is just there to envoke a mood.To help you along heres a picture which isn't part of a ride but part of a restraunt. It's probably so overlooked because its so subtle...Yes it is from Chessington, but show me a few bit's of Thorpe theming to convince me that their theming is up there with the best of them.(Also using Tidal wave gas tanker and water tank will fail you because they no longer work. )

I LOVE the Monkey swinger. Chessington's best ride, easily.

*wont be using any lockers or leaving my loose items at a certain place anymore

Go on the 23rd May, bring party poppers and birthday cake and celebrate Vortex's 10 birthday! YOU KNOW YOU WANT TO.

I kind of like the advert, although I've noticed a big trend with the Thorpe adverts is to show a lot of the park and not just the specific new ride.

Last week it was 17 degrees at Thorpe, sun shining brightly and very hot. Warmer then August will be anyway . The broken handle is one thing, however theres probably a reason for everything else.

As work has officially confirmed I have that Monday off, I can now definitly come.YAY, CHESSINGTON.

I still want Cyndaquil and Snivy though. give me

I get annoyed when people have to say "one last thing"IT'S NEVER THE LAST THING IF EVERYONE KEEPS CARRYING IT ON.

I think we could close this topic for anothear year to be honest.

Europa Parks Log Flume is also 1.2 metres. Baring in mind though, it was 1.2 metres last year

STORM SURGE, GET OFF MY SPOTIFY.YOU AREN'T EVEN A PROPER RIDE.

I can think of things worse then the tsunami.Like getting into cars where locks just disappear.

Vortex opened in June 2001. In March 2001 it was still a building site. Not its birthday yet.The current Zodiac is not the one that opened in 2001. Therefore, the pedant wins and it is Detonator only that celebrates its 10th birthday.

Thing is, in Merlins eyes, they had their years last year. The problem beingn this year, that yet again, Thorpe comes across as the favourite and gets another ride (regardless of how cheap or bad Storm Surge is), whilst Cwoa has to make do with two rethemed restraunts and Alton gets a sealife downgrade.I'm just tired of Chessington being a park that is constantly overlooked. There is absoultely no reason why, with significant investment, Chessington couldn't get 2 million visitors. With the right attractions and the right emphasis placed, Chessington could be a high flyer like Legoland. But Tussauds and now Merlin don't seem interested.If Chessington had looked like they;d had something done this year like new toilets or maybe if Skyway and Runaway train had significant work done to them then it would make sense. But no, Runaway still looks a disgrace and Skyway has the same old 80's rejects wobbling back and forth.

There's your answer.

Same.. except I never saw it closed

The thing is this restriction actually makes it in the ride stakes, more restrictive then Fury. That "if you are under 1.3 you must be accompanied by an adult" thing.If it does happens to Loggers, Thorpe are going to really struggle justifying it, at least Chessington has other family friendly rides...
