Bit sad that.

Aquatrax?

Similar view, it's so far outside the main city I thought you were mad for walking out to it! Especially when the metro is an absolute doddle. Shame to see the park hasn't really invested much since I last went several years ago.

Would I do it? Would I **** Do I love watching other people do it and seeing their footage? Absolutely I love seeing different angles and perspectives of things.

Oh no, another reason to go back to Madrid, what a shame..... This definitely opening next season do we reckon?

Can chuck in Venice and Malaga now - the former was still a work in progress but being able to just wander outside and grab a bus or a boat over was fun. Malaga airport was really good - cheap as chips to get into the city, bit more of a supermarket feel though and a bit crowded with many of...

I am probably one of the most staunchest defenders of Flamingo Land on here but even I can't defend that name. It's bad enough calling a rollercoaster anything related to vomiting/nausea. But an illiterate Sik as if it's a great thing is just. I have no words. None. What a dreadful, dreadful idea.

In terms of actual train stations, I've been to more in Germany, Netherlands and Spain than I have in England. I've literally only ever done 3 in the UK, between here and Euston. Train travel overseas is just so much easier and cheaper that I'll consider if everytime, whereas here unless I...

Ignorance. Arrogance. In the most part. Will be making sure when I have kids that they learn a second language because it's so much harder when you're older.

Genuinely nothing wrong with having those hypers at the top - ultimately your top 10 should be about what you think matters. For me, it's which ride would I choose to go on right now if I had the chance - and that wouldn't necessarily be the 'best' ride, but it would be the most enjoyable, if...

Why? IP's are, nearly always, a proven success. As are 'gimmicks'. Maybe not to enthusiasts, but to the GP, they lap it all up - which is why most other successful parks copy that approach. I think whoever replaces him has a huge opportunity in the next few years to really attack the UK market...

So jealous - I'd forgotten just how good (and huge) Europa Park was.

Still more money to be made from 'new plans'. Or, the money laundering has already been done.

Ahahahahaha they want to charge you an extra £15 for THAT?! The idea of having that as an upcharge at all is bafflingly bad - and will piss off punters stood queueing seeing two empty seats going round and round until somebody is stupid enough to pay for it. They'll be gone by the end of the...

Depends on the ride entirely. Airtime machine? Hands up all the way. Multi-looper? Holding on to try and stop my head clattering side to side. Anything else? Usually just leave my arms hanging loose. Exceptions - wild mice, I'm hanging on like a mother ****er. And GIB's - you're lucky if I...

Smiler for me - that second hill in particular where it flies through.

Can't comment on Troy. I loved Joris - was fully surprised by it. Absolute machine of a ride. My memory of Wodan is a bit rusty, however, I think it has one or two elements that just have it standing above Joris for me.

Not sure if I'd rather be tucked inside a bobsleigh not looking up, or going face first on a tea-tray, or feet first with a bloke on top of me.

Yeah Jordan's first few words sum it up - if you're a regular visitor or have been before, TTD just becomes 'another ride', so to speak. But for first time visitors, it has a pull and attraction that few other rides come close to. For a comparable example - if Nemesis was down, would it stop...

I think the thing that bugs me about Alton is that it makes it difficult to get a lot done in a single visit - especially if you want to zig zag. It's not so bad with Europa because there's always something in between. Efteling to a slightly lesser extent than Alton, although we went during...
