With everything going on at the Cedar Fair parks right now (mostly TT2...), it's probably a good time to applaud Merlin for their continued commitment to free item bins at every ride where you cant bring aboard. It's such a small but impactful part of the guest experience that Merlin get...

I think we've probably moved beyond the era where Merlin didn't maintain things like that. They seem truly committed to getting effects working and reliable again so let's see. I hope to not stand corrected. I really hope the foliage does grow in nicely, I'm not against 'accidental jungle' as...

I wonder if Paulton's could afford one of those compact layouts?

I know I said before, but Air could be amazing again if some of the original unbuilt theming was built. One of the reasons Nemesis is so good is because of all the low-to-the-ground near miss theming. Air could achieve the same with some good rockwork (and that tunnel!!!!)

Oh well, it shouldn't be too busy anyway. Nobody else happen to be going Sunday?

Considering a solo Thorpe trip on Sunday as my partner is at a Hen do. Do Thorpe really only have Single Rider for Saw, Samurai and WD these days? I guess it's supposed to rain which will put people off but not even Colossus and Inferno?

The idea that there wouldn't be anything potter related is simply unthinkable. It would be leaving money on the table. Regarding the Studio Tour, I can only imagine it would be of mutual benefit. The Studio Tour is a very different experience to what Universal offers, and with two major Potter...

It's probably the best comparison, to be fair.

Lots of people saying it's broken or there is an issue. Thinking logically, would they simply not be running checks here? I'm considering things like the validating the train's stability on the lift-hill in case of evac requirement. I highly doubt there is a fault. Edit: Just seen Josh's...

The rumour mill is annoying me today, there's no basis for the 7pm rumour I can see, wind speeds are ridiculous even at ground level even now, security can't move you on or stop you filming on Monk's Walk as it is a public footpath. Chertsey (actually half the country) is on a yellow warning of...

No, I'd say it's pretty unlikely unfortunately. The weather (and wind) is pretty atrocious.

Monopoly isn't British, it's American. The London game we know is a variation on the original.

Heard from whom?

It looks good, like really good. Almost Velocicoaster good. Whilst I'm chomping at the bit for a back row ride on this, I wouldn't mind sitting in those front seats either.

Teasing us this morning.
