August 11, 201510 yr comment_214673 Going waaaaay back... I have a (possibly irrational) phobia of train platforms. Ever since I read Thirteen by Tom Hoyle, I've always been a bit paranoid while waiting for the train OR the Tube (Tube especially). I always tend to stand WAY back from the platform edge, because I fear that if I'm not careful and I'm even 6ft from the edge, I could suffer a similar fate to that of a certain unfortunate character from Thirteen! (Only those who've read the book will know what I'm on about...mentioning the Tube and all...)
August 11, 201510 yr comment_214729 Well technically you should stand a whole 'you' length away from the yellow line, so that if someone was to knock you over you would still not fall into the path of the train. #childrentubesafety
August 25, 201510 yr comment_215902 It's a different world from when we'd be hanging out the side of an open slam - door train carriage half a mile out from the station as the train hurtled along. Fun times, and I didn't die. You couldn't stand too close to the platform edge then, or the doors would hit you, now there's no doors every one stands too close to get on first. Make a change in the name of safety and you just create another issue as people stop thinking for themselves. It's 'elf and safety gone mad now, I tells ya.

August 26, 201510 yr comment_216007 I had a crap on the floor of my school toilets because the cubicles weren't free, preach it
October 18, 20159 yr comment_221272 Those who were on the meet today may know that at the last second, I actually backed out of Face It Alone! It's not what I'd call wimping out though. I most likely would've gone for it if it weren't on a college night... Next year though!
November 10, 20159 yr comment_223032 I'm addicted to coffee now! I think you and Bucky are going to get on just fine...
November 10, 20159 yr comment_223033 Furius Baco is the best ride I have ever been on. I agree with you. Baco is amazing..
November 10, 20159 yr comment_223044 I'm addicted to coffee now! "Coffee"...as in coffee shops in the Netherlands? Efteling was blates just a cover up for a more serious addiction
November 14, 20159 yr comment_223381 I've never been on a wooden rollercoaster. I know my life is tragic...
November 14, 20159 yr comment_223396 Like mark9 I've never been on a wooden rollercoaster. I know my life is tragic... Well riding a woodie is also (nearly) tragic! Try riding Gwazi with a lapbar that's not properly locked in... (Good thing Gwazi's been demolished! )
November 15, 20159 yr comment_223409 Oh and just a quick Q: what is the best European wooden rollercoaster for me to ride in the future? Is it collosos, wodan or other?
November 15, 20159 yr comment_223414 Like mark9 I've never been on a wooden rollercoaster. I know my life is tragic... You've got the wrong person, I've ridden at least 20 wooden rollercoasters.
November 15, 20159 yr comment_223433 You've got the wrong person, I've ridden at least 20 wooden rollercoasters. Yep sorry, I think I did mean matt creek.
December 13, 20159 yr comment_224655 As much as I love the dungeons I do not enjoy Tyrant Boat Ride the audio is too loud (the axe man part it is horrific) I always score it a 4 on the review boards
December 14, 20159 yr comment_224668 Gotta confess that for the first time in years, I've actually started playing Roblox again. No. No no no no. Noooooooooooo. Oh God PLEASE NO. STAY AS FAR AWAY FROM THAT MONEYGRABBING PLOY AS YOU CAN. I MEAN IT!Oh yeah, and the only two Halloween attractions I've ever done are Brick or Treat and Trick or Treat Wood. Also, I scared a child at Thorpe when I gave a chav a dirty look for calling Nemesis Inferno Nemesis. He just stared at me with wide eyes for about a minute before being pulled away by his mum.
