The Set-up Picture this, you've got an amazing gig in Cologne in July booked for around six months, Turnstile playing a really cool venue and my final Turnstile show of the year (to my knowledge). Flights are sorted, hotels are good to go and it's gonna be a crazy but incredible 48 hours...

The garbage pail park

I'd probably consider it at £7.99 or something like that. Below a tenner but over a fiver Right now with the upped wristband prices plus the ridiculous cost for enso I won't be visiting anytime soon

Visiting in a week and a bit, can't wait to try this! I last rode it 11 years ago so it's been a while...

This is the perfect summary of Disney parks. I did Disney Paris when out that way for a gig a few years ago and within minutes my clock watching cred hunting approach was dropped. I booked Disney World the next day as I thought if Paris was that spectacular, what would the biggest Disney resort...

Trip Postmortem So I've had just over a week to digest the trip (plus I'm back on the road following a band's whole UK tour), so here's some of the takeaway points for us both Highlights Ride to Happiness. Absolutely every other coaster on these two trips is behind RTH for us. It's just...

Trip part two: Day Four First off, apologies for this being delayed! Turns out doing a trip of this intensity causes some serious exhaustion 😅 Our lovely night in the Radisson Blu left us as out as refreshed as anything could this deep into an exhausting trip. We got up around 7:30 and got...

Trip part two: Day Three Our third early start rolled around as our alarms began to blare at 6am, somehow though our energy levels were well up to the task of getting down to the hotel breakfast for 6:20. We wolfed down a fairly hearty breakfast then set off to catch our 7:20am first leg of...

Trip part two: Day Two - Goths in Gothenburg 5am rolled around and our alarms signalled that our six hours kip were over. Thankfully we had picked up train breakfast supplies already, so we just got ready and then rolled out the hotel for our train to Gothenburg. I have a deep love of long...

Trip part two: Day One Like all the best laid plans, this trip was beset with problems on all sides. Not only did our original sitter for Lucifer cancel, our replacement sitter caught Covid last week and left us scrambling for a sitter to allow the trip to go ahead. Thankfully a good friend...

Oh fantastic! That's great timing indeed 😄 I hope you love it

Thank you 😄 Glad you liked the writeup! Can't wait to head out for pt 2 next week Oh you are going to have a blast. Kondaa is right up your street too, straight up ejector machine

Sadly on account of our dogsitter pulling out and Lucifer being quite particular with who sits him, we've had to cancel our weekend down south 😔 We'll hopefully see everyone at the next one

This is quite literally the best summary of Energylandia anyone has ever given. I broke two ribs when seeing Limp Bizkit play that song, 10/10 would go back for more.

Lapped both for a significant amount of time the other week and although Kondaa is a stunning coaster, Ride to Happiness pips it for me. Kondaa is absolutely fantastic in every way, especially with how it basically spends 20% of the layout trying to throw you out your seat. Once Kondaa had...

I was going to do a little trip part one postmortem tonight! However for us it was Ride to Happiness 😄 Not to take anything away from how brilliant Kondaa is, but the uniqueness of every single ride on RTH + the insane feelings it creates just blew us away. Spinning through an inversion...

Aaah no it has pyro too? 😯 I'm heavily regretting not looking up what it was!

Day nine Finally the day arrived for us to experience Ride to Happiness. I cannot explain how I felt on that train this morning, just complete jitters as our train approached De Panne. Obviously it took a bit to perk up as the 6am start was a bit hefty, but we made it to the park in good time...

Midway through the day at plopsa update: Ride to happiness is absolutely amazing in every sense. However we feel very uncomfortable at this park, everyone keeps staring at us very intensely and it's getting very weird. I know we dress a bit uniquely, but it's groups of like 20 people all staring...

Thank you so much for reading along! Glad you liked the photos, I've been trying my best with them 😄 Now that one is a funny story! I actually wasn't aware of what it was till 5:30pm when we googled it and then we had a difficult choice, final two rerides on Kondaa, or Tutankhamon 😅 we will be...
