Matt 236 Posted July 12, 2013 Report Share Posted July 12, 2013 Just a heads up,Thorpe are advertising on FB that there last few tickets for tomorrow night are available, so I advise anyone who hasn't bought a ticket yet to purchase one ASAP as they are extremely likely to sell out.

Flipper Posted July 12, 2013 Report Share Posted July 12, 2013 OMG you are Unplugged??! - You should see someone about that Theres a reason! Basically Han, the Flume at Alton Towers used to be called 'The Flume: Unplugged' when Imperial Leather sponsored it; and I was and I am still obsessed with the Flume because of the Duck in the tunnel. So back in the day I named myself Unplugged, because it used to make sense; and now, it just sounds really dirty since the Unplugged bit of the name has been dropped from the ride Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke_A Posted July 13, 2013 Report Share Posted July 13, 2013 (edited) Well I'm home now as I'm 17 so no MoS for me! Would have loved to have gone though. The day meet was a great success, was great to meet some new members as well as see some members who I hadn't seen in a while! Perfect weather for a good amount of riding the water rides / spending time at the Tidal Wave splash area. Thanks to Peaj & everyone else for helping make it such an enjoyable day with great people! PS: The group photo could be rather entertaining (I think I looked like a drowned rat ahahah), it was taken after Rumba where we happened to be selectively chosen to be soaked by that massive hose jet by the turntable at the start of the ride...

EC! Posted July 13, 2013 Report Share Posted July 13, 2013 Fantastic meet loved meeting you all again. I'm really happy you all were friendly and chatty to my sister and her friend and made them feel welcome. today was BOILING but fantastic, the only biggy we didn't do was stealth, but the day was fun none the less. And also to top it all off Tidal Wave to finish, which was the best thing I had ridden all day as it was so hot lol. Like luke said, thats for Peaj for organizing and everyone else for making it awesome, like luke also I'm a tad to young for MOS nights so I will wait in anticipation for the photos of some very drunk looking TPM members I had a fantastic time roll on the next meet Luke_A and Phill Pritchard 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James & Co. Posted July 14, 2013 Report Share Posted July 14, 2013 Hope you guys had a great time at Thorpe yesterday, gutted I missed out on it! But alas, there will be other meets, also I'm determined to meet Luke! So you better be at a meet that I'm going to! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricky Posted July 14, 2013 Report Share Posted July 14, 2013 Well I thoroughly enjoyed the day and night last night, even though I peaked by midnight and had to go by 1, it was a brilliant night! Phill Pritchard 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt 236 Posted July 14, 2013 Report Share Posted July 14, 2013 Really enjoyed yesterday. It was good spending a day with everyone again at the park, the amazing night rides at MOS plus the club part too although shame they didn't play more 90's stuff. Another impressive meet, except for my terrible hangover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.S217 Posted July 14, 2013 Report Share Posted July 14, 2013 they did not play much 90's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pluk Posted July 14, 2013 Report Share Posted July 14, 2013 Home at last, really had a great time. Shame I couldn't make the whole day but I think 12hrs of Thorpe is quite enough! Got a decent amount of rides in with a good crowd, a lot of beer and some very bad 'dancing' through the night. I even jumped on for a quick detonation while I popped back on park for a hangover burger when I collected my car! Worth saying here how impressed I was with the whole Ministry of Sound set up, they really create a great atmosphere and do a more than decent job of turning the rather unlikely dome into a nightclub. Some of the music choice was a bit odd and pushing the boundaries of what I expect to hear on a 90's night, but that is just taste I guess. Apologies to my roomies if my supersonic snoring kept you awake (although Fish hit some impressive volume himself at times so he can't complain) and too anyone if I did/said anything beyond the mark while full of beer (I'm well aware my sense of humour goes a bit dark and nasty when I'm drunk, deep down I guess I'm just a bit dark and nasty!). And, as ever, thanks to Peaj for the organising. Phill Pritchard 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJ Posted July 14, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 14, 2013 Thanks to all those that made this day and night great fun. I will second to Pluk how impressed I was with the transformation into Ministry of Sound. Just under 18 hours in the park did take a toll on my energy - I must admit, so apologies for being grumpy/ moany between 9 and half 10, my energy levels took a tumble (not an excuse I know) and got ratty . But thanks to those who snapped me out of it ready to party it up in the dome for a brilliant night. Entertainment from some of the members in the 90s zone with their dance moves and as always look forward to the next meet. the after effects today was waking up feeling sluggish so thought I'd have a hair of the dog laying in my mates paddling pool in the garden. Next time I promise I won't start drinking before 10am.... Phill Pritchard and Luke_A 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Topsyturvy15 Posted July 14, 2013 Report Share Posted July 14, 2013 Hi all thanks to everyone that came yesterday!!!! It was a brilliant day. Considering that it was snowing during my last meet yesterday was quite a contrast. During the day it was great to chat to everyone and to get to know people better, during the evening it was great to whore the coasters and later on was good to have a couple of drinks It was great to meet those from TowersNerd and yet again many thanks to Peaj for making the day what it was!!!!! I cant wait for the next meet and I hope that everyone enjoyed it as much as I did!!!!!!!! Will try and get some pics up soon ...
