^ I'm kind of looking forward to ranking Reborn over Steel Vengeance :D ****ing finally. I thought it was just me 🤣 🤣 I think people just really like corners. I once drove slightly too fast from Skegness to Mablethorpe and if you know that road, you'll see why it was a similar experience...

Silly vampire band released some bonus tracks. It may be barely a week until Eurovision, but this cover is the cheesiest thing I've heard in a while. @Nicky Borrill - we didn't realise Hannah does a mean Bonnie Tyler impression!!

I had a starter today because there was crispy squid. Mmm... crispy squid. There's always exceptions, but I find desserts can be disappointing out - a lot of puddings feel store bought and microwaved. [There will be no need to point out that the crispy squid was probably store bought then deep...

I like Sik. Sik is OK. It has a silly name though. EDIT: This post made more sense before a bunch of stuff was (rightfully) deleted.

Bored of lockers now. This expected to run on opening day (and... more importantly the 28-29th)?

Just watched a POV - that's the first time I've had a proper look at this thing and it looks utterly bat-****. Glad to hear the chaos was shortlived, Nick - I'm rather jealous - hope this trip is showing you EP in its full glory :)

Couldn't find the Minifigure Speedway topic - but I rode it today. Not target audience etc. but couldn't shake the feeling they should have called in vekoma - as bored as I am of junior boomerangs, they're better than this. That said - it looks pretty good, seems to be an absolute winner with...

Those trains are still ugly as all hell, but I'm hugely in favour of this change - never liked the stand-up trains and I think stand-up coasters as a whole moreorless died a death due to not working/not being very good.

This is hopefully not that rare. We're seeing a resurgence of shuttle coasters and I don't like it. It ****s the throughput and involves going backwards.

Those are strange places to put them - I'd say it makes sense on anything with four-across seating - though I seem to remember reading somewhere once that people are most likely to visit parks in groups of 3... For purely selfish reasons, I'd love to see one brought back to Nemesis, because the...

Only just woken up, so not given this much thought, but Odyssey is really not that bad. Just nobody say the Aussie one with new restraints (which I think may have been scrapped) - because it was still ****ing terrible!!

I love that there's someone on there complaining that Wetherspoons expects you to pay for food at time of ordering 'even though it's table service' Some people just don't belong in Blackpool 🤣 🤣 The e-ticket thing is a pain, to be fair - I don't know why they brought it in, and I really don't...

Oh, bloody hell... Assuming this is strictly enforced(?) this is FLY levels of PitA... (And if they think I'm taking my glasses off before joining the queue, they can **** right off.)

It's the area in front of what used to be Ripsaw/Funk 'n' Fly - the closed path is annoying but far from unbearable and doesn't affect the vista of Nemesis much at all - in fact the only places it's really a problem to are the coffee shop and the Nemesis shop. I too am surprised it's started...

I usually get an Alton pass, as I live less than half an hour from the place and it's nice to be able to head up when I'm at a loose end. Obviously this year I knew I'd be at both Thorpe and Lego at least once, so I got the gold option. Will I renew it next year? No idea.

Overpriced, sure - but we can't knock them for trying. We'd have paid that for the Mouse, let's be honest.

Rattlesnake only gets long queues due to woeful throughput. I'm kind of surprised - and would argue that Zoofari in particular should be a winner with younger visitors. It's obviously penny pinching, but not something disastrous that would have me reconsidering an off-peak trip (though...
