    Last Cred Review

    Just on the way back from Winter Wonderland Hyde Park. Seen as I was only there for a very short time it feels more appropriate to post on here then do a full trip report. Like many I have always wanted to ride Olympia Looping at some point. I remember getting a 'Guinness Book of World Records'...

    Who would go to Six Flags Quiddiya?

    This has given me some thought. Prior to going to Poland last year I had no knowledge of the anti LGBTQ+ government until my return. If I would of known perhaps I would of had reservations about going, but yet I can't deny that I had a great time while I was there. So I won't judge anyone for...

    Who would go to Six Flags Quiddiya?

    As a bisexual man definitely not and considering other human rights violations concerning women and people of other faiths. It's place I will be avoiding for the foreseeable.

    Your favourite city

    I think my favourite might be Stockholm. Due to the topography there is always something interesting to look at and for a capital city it never felt crowded even on a weekend, plus there is is a ton of stuff to do and not just the nearby parks, Stockholm has some of the best museums and boat...

    "Now Showing"

    Killers of the Flower Moon Scorsese is still out here making the most ambitious films of his career. I knew nothing about the story going in and after experiencing such a vast story it made me realise how little we here of Native American stories in mainstream cinema. Being a scorsese movie you...

    Walibi Holland | YoY | RMC Raptor | 2025

    This might not mean anything, but with RMC listing a "coming soon" international raptor, could we possibly start seeing marketing for these rides before the year is out? https://www.rockymtnconstruction.com/current-rides/

    Swedish Speedrun

    Day Two: Kolmarden It was an early start as the train leaving Stockholm was at 7:46am, which meant I had to leave the hotel by 6:45. The train didn't take too long, properly about an hour and a 20 minutes. I got the train to Kolmarden station which is a 20 minute bus journey away from the Zoo...

    Swedish Speedrun

    It's that time of year again when I am running out of annual leave. So with a remaining few days left I made a fairly last minute booking to Stockholm. A quick 2 and 1/2 day operation of an afternoon at Grona Lund, a day outing at Kolmarden and finally some city sightseeing the following day. I...
