At least add different colour to the **** supports. I'll remember to take sunglasses if and when I visit Gardaland.

I saw those pictures of the crashed trains of the Smiler earlier, I couldn't believe how far the fronts were buckled in, has anything been mentioned about the fronts being reinforced? I mean I'm sure it won't happen again, but just as an additional precaution.

First of all, I think you need to have a certain amount of wooden coasters if you're going to have two counts, your top ten wooden coasters can't be your ten wooden coasters if you're going to be 'official' about it. In reality, for me, ranking coasters is all about my pure enjoyment, therefore...

Gavin raises an interesting point about the french pronunciation...never thought of it that way. I pronounce it 'Boll-ih-jer and Mah-bil-ard', well I didn't until now, I thought Bolliger was spelt 'Bollinger', so 'Boll-in-jer' but we'll skip over that. Whoops!

So I got the Hayling one. Now it is the Paultons ones...but as they aren't open yet...for me in Portsmouth it'd be Devon's Crealy, if you take it from Cambridge though, it'd be that spiteful Twist and Joust at Gulliver's Milton Keynes, they opened it a month after I went. ****.

According to RCDB (I doubt I have any unlisted ones anyway) Takabisha, Fuji-Q Highland: 121 Saw the Ride, Thorpe Park: 100 Speed, Oakwood: 97 Rage, Adventure Island: 97 Only 4? **** sake.

I own a bit of Wodan and the original Scenic Railway at Dreamland lovingly fashioned into a pencil pot.

It really pisses me off that basic 17p calculators from tesco can't do BIDMAD or BODMAS or whatever you want to call it. But yeah, 14.

One of the hotels at Port Aventura, can't remember which and that's it. Hope you all enjoyed my contribution.

Hayling Island's Funland never was the most classy of places, and in the 3 years since my last visit, nothing had changed, but that's what gives it some touch of quality if you ask me...well, if you look hard enough that is. I was keen to join Ian to ride the completely new-for-me-coaster, Mine...

I like it as a gimmick, it's fun but the point in a coaster is the coaster experience. I think it works on a coaster like Alpen Express, I enjoyed it, it's family friendly but I'm not keen on seeing it on other coasters, I'm yet to try Galactica but I think it will ruin fabulous Air </3...

So sad to hear about Ronnie Corbett, came on the radio when I was at work earlier, used to love watching the Two Ronnies repeats and Sorry.

It's difficult. I, like other have said, rarely travel JUST to ride rollercoasters, I like seeing other **** too. Also, when I go away I consider myself on holiday, which is basically what all of my spare cash goes on so I don't scrimp on that much, yes I'll buy that piece of tat, yes...

I've smoked it a couple of times, it's alright, nothing that special, I wouldn't smoke it regularly though, a. I can't afford it, b. I have no interest in doing so.

Vekoma as they have the most operating coasters which means I get get loads-a creds :D (if we're talking designed by then I'd choose Ing.-Büro Stengel GmbH as they have designed 450 odd creds, but they've been built by other manufacturers). Ok, I'm being silly, B&M in reality.

The nearest cred to me that I haven't ridden is Runaway Mine Train at Hayling Island...around 2 miles from me, but it only opened last week so I think I have an excuse ;) Other than that it's the two new coasters at Paultons which I'll ride later this year too!

Breaking news! Clarence Pier has a new attraction this year...the Solent Eye! It takes riders up to just over 100ft to give great views of Portsmouth's housing estates and the sea...on the clearest of days you might be able to see the distant, rolling hills of the Isle of Wight. It's a steal at...

Fab day. It always is! Great company, great rides...I might write something more substantial later...We'll see! Thanks Ian for organising stuff.

Oh tits, really? That's a shame, but why was it such a like, thin pathway of them...unless they've removed more since. Awww I wanted a woodie to go through there :(

Looking forward to keeping an eye on this one! An RMC would be the ideal, I'd love a wooden coaster winding around those trees, when I went last March....Obviously before the smiler incident happened, loads of trees had been removed behind Thirteen's queue, rumours were rife that it was for a...
