    Europa Park is the best theme park.

    Europa Park is a park that I always have completely adored, this is pretty evident reading some of my posts. Before last week my last visit was 2019. This somewhat left a question in my mind that maybe this was just nostalgia? It is very easy to remember the best of a park instead of its gaping...

    Thorpe Park: Is it good again? (Fright Nights 23')

    It is 2012, and Thorpe Park just built Swarm. They had received 3 coasters since 2006, and seemed to be endlessly expanding. The park were laying down coasters, flat rides, and Thorpe was "the park" in the UK. Then we saw a decade of nothing, literal nothing. Temporary half baked "attractions"...

    Blackpool Pleasure Beach- a messy masterpiece

    Pleasure Beach is a trek for me to visit. I have to leave my home town of Crawley to travel to London Euston, then to get the train all the way up Blackpool. It takes around 4-5 hours, and a lot of money. It literally sits 200 miles away on the other side of the damn country, so it is not a...

    Gardaland- Its Okay!

    Gardaland was not a park i honestly was planning on travelling to anytime soon. I happened to have a spare day on my trip to Milan/Venice, so decided i would try and squeeze in a Merlin park and give them my money. Honestly i had wanted to visit Gardaland, but it never had that lineup to really...

    Disney and Desantis

    Disney World is a park we all know right? Here in the UK even with Euro Disney so near, everyone always seems to view Orlando as “the place” to take your kids. There’s a lot of politics behind this that I’m not gonna dig too deep on, but basically the governor of the state and Disney have butt...

    Energylandia 23/09/2022

    My thoughts on Energylandia: 23/09/2022 I never thought I’d reach a park this year- I had been travelling a plenty, but never had a theme park related trip. After a bunch of time in the US, Austria, Iceland, and Balkan region during the spring I finally settled myself back in good old Crawley...

    Ride Access Passes/ queueing with a disability

    Wow this is a can of worms, So Merlin operate a type of access for disabled guests to access attractions without queuing- RAP. This system basically makes you have to wait the amount you would of queued after you’ve gone on the attraction. I would like to hear opinions and delve deep on this...

    Thorpe Park- How crap is it?

    27/03/2022 The day is Mothers Day in the UK, most normal people would celebrate it with their mothers. I left a bottle of pinot in the fridge with a note, with my two favourite idiots, we ventured to Cherstey, to discover Merlin's least favourite asset. So, Thorpe Park. Once hailed as the park...

    Tulleys Farm Shocktoberfest

    Tulleys Farm is one of the most iconic if not the most iconic halloween event in the UK. They were one of the first to the scene back in 98' with Creepy Cottage. In the UK scare events just were not a thing back then, honestly scare attractions only really took off in the 2010's here in the UK...

    Black Mirror- A spoiler and frustrated filled review

    17/06/2021 was my first coaster day of the year. It was a long one in the making So first off, the park has a solid coaster lineup. It does lack a true headliner, but Inferno in the back row is by far my favourite, and the ride ages like fine wine. My friend had an exemption, which meant we got...

    Is The Walking Dead at Thorpe Park on borrowed time?

    So i have been preparing to go Thorpe this Thursday. During checking the queue times for stuff, i noticed The Walking Dead seems to always be a ghost town queue wise. Rarely exceeding 10 minutes ever, even when other rides have queues of 90 minutes. It usually has a smaller wait than any of the...

    Favourite Europa Dark Ride

    Europa have a diverse and pretty great lineup of dark rides. So what is the best one? I am excluding Arthur here, as i believe it would make this poll a lot more boring (everyone would vote for it..)

    Cedar Point- From the perspective of a british pleb

    Ever since I was young I always have dreamed of visiting Cedar Point. Sure it doesn't have as many coasters as Magic Mountain but I feel like Cedar Point has undeniably the better lineup in terms of quality over quantity. The park also a lot more history than Magic Mountain and is very popular...
