Legoland

Stuck THIRTY FOOT in the air. Nearly two floors high. The Health & Safety was shocking! No guest harness to be escorted down a short staircase. The Sun are trying their best to taint the Theme Park industry as unsafe yet again. We went to the busiest theme park in the UK on a hot day... AND IT WAS BUSY!!! Shock horror.

As much as is sensationalist garbage with people putting on compo faces, they do have two good points:

 

-Being stuck in the air with no shade on a 30C isn't pleasant.

-Plenty of people will question, or at least raise an eyebrow, when they see staff evacuating them wearing full harnesses whilst they themselves don't wear full harnesses (assuming of course that's what happened; I don't know what the procedure is for Dragon?)

 

Doesn't justify the ridiculousness of the article, but sadly woven in there is two reasonable irrefutable points. A normal, reasonable person would deal with these with the park and 99% of the time an acceptable resolution would be reached. Shame someone has had to go to the papers.

Just a tad creepy, this is a park designed for children, this isn't a Thorpe RMC announcement.

I suppose it is then. Because I never thought we would actually see them add a Coaster.

 

The only RMC Thorpe will ever get is the people who founded it back in 1979. Can’t see them getting a Coaster soon.

Opening day is going to be real cringe on this one when enthusiasts flock to the park to get a plus 1 credit. Hopefully it will have a rule that you need a child for use so its only for the right crowd.

As much as getting a plus one might be, some of us may have more important plans anyway.

 

Like going to Poland or seeing Tornado Springs.

 

The Park needed another (small) coaster anyway.

And in surprising (or unsurprising) news, Legoland Windsor have confirmed via social media they will be removing their Star Wars Miniland walkthrough.

With the other Legoland parks removing their equivalent attractions, it is highly likely the result of Disney’s ownership of the brand and the recent openings of the Galaxy’s Edge areas in Disney resorts. 
 

The attraction closes on the 31st December if anyone wants to see it before this disappears into the force.
