    Nemesis

    Its interesting you say that Whiteknuckle as Black Mamba actually helped me to like Inferno more. I used to hate Inferno but once I'd ridden Phantasialands version a few times I found myself able to appreciate Inferno more. Nemesis is my favourite but I find it more because of the story, the setting and the background behind it rather than the actual experience. I find the problem I had with Nemesis is that it does have this legendary status hooked onto it and as good as it is, it will never quite live up to it for a lot of first-timers who have already ridden Nemesis Inferno. That being said both of our Nemesis's are supreior to Batman La Fuga, man that ride is dull.

    I'd recommend against trying a long distance relationship with someone in Canada. I tried it with Matt who only lived in Canterbury but it made saying goodbye incredibly painful.

    A class of five-year old school children return to the classroom after playing in the playground during their break time.The teacher says to the first child "Hello Becky, what have you been doing this playtime?" Becky replies "I have been playing in the sand box". "Very good," says the teacher "if you can spell 'sand' on the blackboard, I will give you a biscuit". Becky duly goes and writes 's a n d' on the blackboard. "Very good" says the teacher and gives Becky a biscuit.The teacher then says "Freddie, what have you been doing in your playtime?" Freddie replies "Playing with Becky in the sand box". "Very good" says the teacher. "If you can spell 'box' on the blackboard, I will also give you a biscuit". Freddie duly goes and writes 'b o x' on the blackboard. "Very good" says the teacher and gives Freddie a biscuit.Teacher then says "Hello Mohammed, have you been playing in the sand box with Becky and Freddie?" "No" replies Mohammed, "I wanted to, but they would not let me. Every time I went near them they started throwing sand at me and calling me nasty names"."Oh dear" says the teacher. "That sounds like blatant racial discrimination to me - I'll tell you what, if you can spell 'blatant racial discrimination' I will give you a biscuit".
  5. Ah but just remember the 137th ride of the day is normally on faster settings. Honestly people who cares who gets the first ride of the season on a ride. You're not getting medals or a plaque for the honour.
  6. I'm coming, it costs me nothing except my sanity afterall
  7. Yeah Seb's got it right on the nail here. You can be the nicest staff member ever, you can be nice to every guest you can work hard, fast be fantastic but it will take just that one person to throw you off and you go into a bad mood. So many times I tried to fill all the seats at Trucks only for a family to decide not to share and instead of talking nicely, hurled abuse at me.. well its enough to annoy you so much that it effects how you talk to everyone else.You may remember more rude staff but staff are just as likely to feel better about their jobs if people say thank you after a ride. It takes very little effort from guests, but how many people here actually say thank you to someone for taking your bag at X or checking your bar on Samurai?
  8. It was a bedsheet with words in red paint on it. Don't be silly mister TPDAN! The park's really don't do enough but then again why should they. Thorpe's main draw is the mazes, Cwoa's is riding in the dark. Theres never much agiven on park theming.

    Why don't I remember you posting this. I was more tired then anything. I love alcohol abuse.
  11. Thanks for the link to that Pete, woke up a few memories there. Vampire is still good but back then it really was extra special. I just can't believe its been 7 years already.

    The family is sitting at the dinner table. The son asks his father, "Dad, how many kinds of boobies are there?" The father, surprised, answers, "Well son, there's three kinds of breasts. In her twenties, a woman's breasts are like melons, round & firm. In her thirties & forties, they are like pears, still nice, but hanging a bit. After fifty, they are like onions." "Onions?" "Yes, you see them, and they make you cry."This infuriated his wife and daughter so the daughter says, "Mom, how many types of "willies" are there?" The mother, surprised, smiles and answers, "Well dear, a man goes through three phases. In his twenties, his willie is like an oak tree, mighty and hard. In his thirties & forties, it's like a birch tree, flexible but reliable. After his fifties, it is like a Christmas tree." "A Christmas tree??""Yes dear, dead from the root up and the balls are for decoration only."

    I object to being classed with those two. Although in saying that the rest of you do seem to like bands that like hoodies. I have a hooded pullover but I don't like those sort of things. I just saw a pic of David Tennant in a kilt... yum yum

    I'm doing Antony & Cleopatra for A2 and its absolutely fantastic. I love Shakespeare, the guy simply deserves his status as the greatest writer of all time.

    How can people really think London is crap, its the bloody capital of the country. There's thousands of things to do, just need to organize something of relevance that more then one person wants to do.

    Jose may be a tosser but he gets results. Would you rather have a nice guy who gets fired for being crap or an arsehole who wins trophies. I know which I'd prefer.
