MikeC Posted May 9, 2007 Report Posted May 9, 2007 The grass is dead, at least the bubble lasted for a *bit* of time. Quote
Freddy Posted March 3, 2008 Report Posted March 3, 2008 Looking at this picture taken this year of the Fish.Click MeThe fish sertainly looks like the origional one with all the trees. Quote
Rich Posted March 3, 2008 Report Posted March 3, 2008 Not really, bet there still isn't any bushes near the track. Quote
Freddy Posted March 3, 2008 Report Posted March 3, 2008 I remeber on origional fish sticky my hands out and grabbing the leaves. The Days. Quote
Jamie_Hk Posted March 6, 2008 Report Posted March 6, 2008 I only rode that once like, years ago.I don't see what the big deal about it is though. Ain't it a bit, tame?...Don't get me wrong though, I'd still queue to ride it. I'm just saying. Quote

I'm just saying.Well it has changed now .And I dont think people ride for the intense crazy thrills (which we all know it delivers ). Quote
Dan_Rush Posted March 26, 2009 Report Posted March 26, 2009 Is it just me or is anyone else anoyed with the current theming?I really don't think surfers really apeal that much to families:DPlease at least bring some of the old theming back Quote

All of the bushes and trees with the previous ride made the whole experience so much better. Quote
Whiteknuckle Posted March 26, 2009 Report Posted March 26, 2009 Definatley prefered the Fish where it used to stand. It's just lost all of it's character now Quote
TimR Posted March 26, 2009 Report Posted March 26, 2009 Definatley prefered the Fish where it used to stand. It's just lost all of it's character now Where did it used to stand? Quote
James Posted March 26, 2009 Report Posted March 26, 2009 You did know Flying Fish was where Stealth is for years and years right? Quote

TimR Posted March 26, 2009 Report Posted March 26, 2009 You did know Flying Fish was where Stealth is for years and years right? Nope lol, I think I remeber it when I went once in 2002, but otherwise I didnt know that yes, I only started visiting Thorpe in 2007 Quote
Ryan Posted March 26, 2009 Report Posted March 26, 2009 Nope lol, I think I remeber it when I went once in 2002, but otherwise I didnt know that yes, I only started visiting Thorpe in 2007If you only started visiting Thorpe Park in 2007, how do you remember going once in 2002? Quote
James Posted March 26, 2009 Report Posted March 26, 2009 For Tims benefit then...Compare it to now...I think thats a pretty good demonstration of why nobody likes the new Fish Quote
TimR Posted March 26, 2009 Report Posted March 26, 2009 For Tims benefit then...Compare it to now...I think thats a pretty good demonstration of why nobody likes the new Fish Thanks alot James!I can sort of remeber it now, but I think it was broken down when I went.Ryan, I had a one off visit in 2002, but I really started visiting in 2007 Quote
Phyciodes Posted March 26, 2009 Report Posted March 26, 2009 Bloody Hell the contrast! I forget what a beatuy it once was. Ahh well on the up side the track is looking a lot nicer now. Quote
TimR Posted March 26, 2009 Report Posted March 26, 2009 Bloody Hell the contrast! I forget what a beatuy it once was. Ahh well on the up side the track is looking a lot nicer now.The blue of the new track is really nice! Quote
James Posted March 26, 2009 Report Posted March 26, 2009 The track looks lovely and fresh still but I'm not so sure about the train, it isn't a Flying Goldfish! :DEspecially because in real life flying fishs are the same colour as the original train. I want them to bring back the little fishy fountain though Quote
TraX Posted April 2, 2009 Report Posted April 2, 2009 Sadly, that fishy fountain is in a bit of a state and imo could have easily come back, but no such luck. I love the look of the new fish, but would like it to be a little more green around the track and what is that muddy ditch all about? Another thing fish needs, is that little plaza area opened up, make it feel and look a lot more like it belongs in OG, where it stands now, in the summer, it's totally hidden. Quote
Sidders Posted April 2, 2009 Report Posted April 2, 2009 I agree, the last 3 times I've visited Thorpe I completely forgot where the Flying Fish was. Quote
