Mer Posted December 23, 2011 Report Share Posted December 23, 2011 I can't right click it, it just brings up the silly white loading box :POh and when I use the mobile skin on my iPhone, I get a message saying "You do not have permission to view this attatchment" I don't get it anywhere else on the forum though :oWhere are they uploaded to? Maybe it's the album privacy settings or something? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sidders Posted December 23, 2011 Report Share Posted December 23, 2011 GCI for 1993? Oh please Thorpe! Let's go back 18 years!Also, it's interesting to note that the original plans for a B&M Flyer where SAW now sits included a "drop which consists of half a pretzel loop". The birth of the "Thorpe Park Inversion", anyone? Would certainly answer who thought it up, Thorpe or B&M... My money's on Thorpe for this one.
