themeparkmad Posted March 30, 2011 Report Share Posted March 30, 2011 By Easter, do you mean Easter Weekend, or the holidays? Haha, I just find it amusing that they would strive to get it on for three trains for that last weekend... and then it's back to off-peak again! I think it would be more the holidays Mikey ;)Just to cover myself - note the 'hopefully' peoples. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benin Posted March 30, 2011 Report Share Posted March 30, 2011 Hopefully doesn't cut it ;)I don't actually remember the last time it has 3 trains for the entirity of Easter... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricky Posted April 2, 2011 Report Share Posted April 2, 2011 Vampire killed a bird yesterday... Was grim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fred Posted April 2, 2011 Report Share Posted April 2, 2011 Did it get feathers and all sorts stuck to the top of the train and in the wheels and then covered the station afterwards? Definitely have fond memories of it hitting birds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricky Posted April 2, 2011 Report Share Posted April 2, 2011 Just remember walking past bubbleworks and feathers flying everywhere, bits of pidgeon here and there! Was closed for about 15/20 minutes! Pidgeon was stuck to the top of the track wasn't a nice site to see! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomglazed Posted April 4, 2011 Report Share Posted April 4, 2011 It sounds like the pigeon was hit by the train chassis, but I keep thinking that the riders in the front row got a face full of pigeon mid-ride! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

themeparkmad Posted April 16, 2011 Report Share Posted April 16, 2011 Vampire is back on a 3 train operation! :)Queues today with it on 3 was sooo much better! Instead of usual 60 mins at points - we had 30 mins.Had 10 mins at the end of the day in the last hour too. Luke_A 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benin Posted April 17, 2011 Report Share Posted April 17, 2011 Well since I haven't signed one I can moan about it then :)Besides, surely with heights being checked at the entrance and batch this shouldn't be a problem? Why a kid should have to have their height checked 3 times (even with a bloody wristband) in a queue is rather stupid...Also yeah, 3 trains... OMFG!

Fred Posted April 17, 2011 Report Share Posted April 17, 2011 Yet Kevins signed a media policy, but spreads the music about like he owns the place . What a hippogriff.All you need is someone to height check at entrance, slap a wristband on. And then ensure they have wristbands in station. Otherwise, no point in wristbands, no point in guy on entrance. God, chessie is so stupid sometimes.I love the inability of the park to get 3 trains by the start of easter holidays though. It's the same every single year. Mer 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoshC. Posted April 21, 2011 Report Share Posted April 21, 2011 I spent too much money on Vampire merchandise today...To show off the XXI bear in all it's glory.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke_A Posted April 21, 2011 Report Share Posted April 21, 2011 I may as well chip in with my Vampire XXI bear too then... Me & my XXI bear wearing his XXI pin!May I just say how brilliant the team on Vampire were yesterday, they were dispatching extremely quickly and I only stacked on lift 2 for 2out of the4 rides I had on it yesterday (20/4/11), sometimes they dispatched just as the op said the '5' notice. She was also giving them good praise which I think was good, and the awesome lines she said whenever a train was dispatched.'SIT BACK&HOLD TIGHT, THE VAMPIRE IS TAKING FLIGHT''SIT BACK&HOLD TIGHT, YOUR IN FOR A FRIGHT'The theme music was still not loud enough though, but the op's mic was...

Sheepie Posted April 21, 2011 Report Share Posted April 21, 2011 Next time I go to Chessington, I'm going to buy myself one of those Vampire bears. They're just too cute. There's a lot of merchandise I'm tempted to buy this year actually. Mer 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
