Thorpe Park Trip Reports

Went today, Saw opened at about 10:42, we were literally the first in and we legged it to Saw straight away, went twice today at the start (second cart as there was 15 of us but it's better anymore, you see more of the puppet) and the queue was something like 3 hours long most of the day whilst we enjoyed the 5 minute nemesis inferno queues and other good rides all with queues under 30 minutes thanks to Saw's popularity. Stealth didn't open until about 12 but other than that every main ride in the park was up the whole time, very good day. I was freexing in shorts in the morning but it got a lot warmer in the afternoon and I was fine once we were in the park pretty much, just standing around waiting for the annual pass office to open to get mine was pretty freezing.

Well, for the first ride on SAW I used my priority pass from opening weekend. I then rode Slammer which had a short que. Afterwards I rode Stealth single rider. I then had a picnic lunch up by the Glass House. After lunch I rode SAW twice more using up all of my 6 priority passes with my dad. Then I rode Stealth twice more using the single rider entrance. On the second ride of Stealth I found a fastrack ticket for Colossus on the seat. I used that afterwards on Colossus and went home.I think I done very well today seeing as I got to the park at 11am and left at 5pm. Two of the times I went on SAW today I sat in the 2nd car front row. The other time being first car back row.My first ride on Stealth being front row and the other two times in the middle.On Colossus I sat at the frontAlso Slammer was front row.So ridewise for me today was brilliant.EDIT: There was also another ride of SAW queing in the SRQ which was abismal today. It had a longer que then the Main que.
