    Serious Incident at Oakwood Theme Park

    After visiting here on one of the "after dark" events I honestly can't say I'm surprised tbh. Megafobia had a worrying about of sway over the second hill and the whole park felt neglected. Most rides were operated by 1 member of staff. Hopefully the person makes a full recovery and the park...

    ENSO; “Icon with a twist” opening at Blackpool Pleasure Beach in 2022

    Does not look that great tbh for £15. Doubt I'll go to BPB this year just due to costs. Its now £44 on the gate which is on the high side

    Alton Towers' Next Big Thing?

    Was it not a rumour that Merlin had employed B&M for a new ride? Was hoping Alton would put another ride in alongside Nemesis

    ENSO; “Icon with a twist” opening at Blackpool Pleasure Beach in 2022

    Icon could of been so much better. The first section is decent but it's lacking pace and airtime. Also the queue line could of been a lot better as the soundtrack is fantastic. I won't be riding Enso as £15 a ride on top of the "average" £44 entrance fee is a joke

    Blackpool Pleasure Beach: Future Predictions

    Has Ikon not generated more income for them? Its a decent ride but I fear it needed to be a lot more. Its the type of coaster you can invest in if your park already has a very good line up. I like BPB but they live too much in the past. Re tracking the big one is pointless tbh but I'm glad they...

    Oakwood - Aug 2014

    Bounce was open but yet again one operator. Which when you have about 36 people to check it really does take a long time. The pirate ship was open but hate the things! Drench was closed due to "technical problems" but only opens from 2 pm now. I presume they only run it on the firework & dark...

    Re: Yah, Well You're a Stupid Bastard - DAY 6- MAGIC KINGDOM Belting report! A kind of weird question, but did he use a tripod with the camera for the firework photos or not :?

    The Smiler - your thoughts?

    Its just people who are to ignorant to wait an extra 2 minutes. There was a family behind us who must of lost 40 places to muppets who walked right around them, all to get 15 seconds further into the que. Alton towers policy is to eject anyone who que jumps, and there definitions are quite...

    The Smiler - your thoughts?

    Hello! Very rarely post on here but here goes! Went on the 11th June and qued up from 9am and was off the ride by 1030am. Didn't really notice the que this time as we walked right to the front. The music was fairly loud and stuck in your head! Really enjoyed the ride apart from the last...

    Did Th13teen live up to the hype and your expectations?

    So is this coaster scary then like it has been dubbed? I very rarely write on here, i mainly read without commenting, because i don't really know loads about coasters, but i do know i love them! So, is it really as scary as AT was making out, and are they still trying to take £1 for the fake...
