Honestly, Adz is useless and rude. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted March 24, 2009 Report Share Posted March 24, 2009 Theme Park bloke, Adz doesn't have to supply the site and make sure it's working, he is not binded in a contract and not being paid for it. If anything I find you pretty rude at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark9 Posted March 24, 2009 Report Share Posted March 24, 2009 Ah but TPB, Adz has exit passes whilst TPM doesn't. He is clearly better then us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skunky Posted March 24, 2009 Report Share Posted March 24, 2009 I think that Boris's funeral should be the same day as Jade Goody they looked alike so no one will know the difference lolBut getting back to the topic I agree Mcdonalds was alot better than Burger King but with Merlin getting rid of the franchise's I dont think burger king iis too far behind KFC and Pizza Hut.

Dan_Rush Posted March 25, 2009 Report Share Posted March 25, 2009 You're right, something is wrong. Honestly, Adz is useless and rude.No, he's not.In all honesty, it's probably just some technical problems he's having. All websites go down, like it or not. Look at reride?. That's had it's share of downtime.He's done better than you have, when did you try and put a website up for us to get theme park music?Anyway back ontopic, does anyone know if there's any rides still undergoing winter checks and there for will be down saturday?

Alex Posted March 25, 2009 Report Share Posted March 25, 2009 Unlike some other popular southern theme parks, all the rides at Chessington should be open as winter maintenence has been completed on time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
themeparkmad Posted March 25, 2009 Report Share Posted March 25, 2009 When I went on the Annual Pass Day, Bubbleworks, Rattlesnake and Safari Skyway all suffered minor technical difficulties so these might be unavailable.Hope not, as I am going on Saturday aswell! :ninja:But knowing Chessington, they will probably sort out the problem as soon as possible.

The main reason I asked was because of the extensive downtime of Bubbleworks last year, but maybe that was just a 1 off. Looks good for saturday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark9 Posted March 25, 2009 Report Share Posted March 25, 2009 Bubbleworks was down as I believe they were rebuilding the lift and drop. It's had nothing as extensive this year. All rides were open at the weekend and Rattlesnake, Bubbleworks and Skyway have been running all this week so don't worry about them not being open Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
themeparkmad Posted March 27, 2009 Report Share Posted March 27, 2009 I am looking foward to it. I am going tomorrow and looking foward to 100% ride availability!Vampire here I come! The annual pass day was good aswell though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark9 Posted March 28, 2009 Report Share Posted March 28, 2009 For anyone going to Chessington's opening day tomorrow.... all going well, there will be 100% ride availability. I've never been so proud and motivated about working at Chessington, there are a lot of changes going on, all for the better.I'm confident that the new Senior Management team is the best the park has ever had and are more passionate as ever about their park. David Smith is such a lovely bloke, hope he does well there.It's going to be a great season Very much agree. Chessington may not have got anything for a while and whilst this year has only seen revamps, I think what they have done has been very much over-due. With the park having 100% ride reliability from the word go and judging by the excellent up-time seen at the park today, this could be Chessingtons best season, for a very long time.

James Posted March 28, 2009 Report Share Posted March 28, 2009 Just some travel information for anybody planning on visiting Chessington tomorrow. London Waterloo to Chessington South: Trains will be replaced by buses between Clapham Junction and Chessington SouthTrains will be running from London Waterloo to Clapham Junction, and then you will have to sit on a bus from there to Chessington. Allowing extra time for the journey would be a good idea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark9 Posted March 28, 2009 Report Share Posted March 28, 2009 An easier way of doing things is to travel from Clapham to Surbiton via the replacement buses then jumping on the 71 or the 465 to the park. The bus to Chessington South takes a very long time (can take over 2 hours). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickD Posted March 28, 2009 Report Share Posted March 28, 2009 Clapham Junction > Kingston is also another good idea. Then a bus from Kingston To Chessington should take not much longer than 20 minutes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theme Park bloke Posted March 31, 2009 Report Share Posted March 31, 2009 I went to London at the weekend - pathetic how no trains were running to Waterloo on the Epsom/Ewell West line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NickD Posted April 12, 2009 Report Share Posted April 12, 2009 SAD FAREWELL TO BORIS, THE LEGEND OF SEALION BAY AT Chessington & ZOOBoris, the beloved Californian Sealion at Chessington & Zoo, has died at the age of 28. Boris was a whopping 100 in human years and lived beyond the typical Sealion lifespan of 15-25 years.Arriving from Alabama Zoo in 1987, Boris resided at his poolside retreat for over two decades, becoming a European record breaker and lovingly known as ‘Bonking Boris’ after fathering an incredible 40 pups! Head of Animal Behaviour Will Elgar says “Boris has always been an idol to staff and guests and his legacy will always live on at Chessington & Zoo, though stories, staff and most of all his pups, Boston, Dante and Harley. He will be sadly missed and fondly remembered by all that knew him.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
