    Theme Park Pet Hates?

    My pet hates at theme parks include queue jumping - I recall many occasions of enduring them and telling people that it isn't fair on others in the line who've been waiting patiently. Also I agree about smoking in queues and what Rachel said about people who hover near or stand just inside an...

    What 'Exclusive'/Rare Cred's Do You Have?

    I also have that cred as well as the awful Chance Toboggan mentioned earlier in the topic :) Some other rare creds that I've got would be the Beastie and The Bush Beast, formerly of Wonderland Sydney which is no longer there - they were great woodies and it's a shame they've gone. I went to...

    Worst coasters you've ridden (Bottom 5/10)

    Re: Bottom 10 Here's my selection of bad coasters in no particular order: 1. Chance Toboggan - probably the worst coaster I've been on. Just awful in every way. 2. Primeval Whirl @ Animal Kingdom - Terrible 3. Stampida @ Port Aventura - it has a good layout but is spoilt by roughness. 4...

    Your first Drop Tower experience

    My first drop tower was the Pepsi Max Drop which was at the Trocadero in London. I was nervous beforehand but loved it. I've always liked drop towers and will continue to enjoy them :D

    SPITE </3

    Hollywood Rip Ride Rockit - It had an issue that spited it for me when I went in 2010 but I expect I'll be going back to Florida again :) That's probably the only one I can think of as I've also been lucky with creds *touch wood* :)

    Hyde Park Winter Wonderland 2012/13

    Air was £6 when I went last week :D Also Alpen Hotel is £4 and well worth it in my view.

    Hyde Park Winter Wonderland 2012/13

    I think the reason it looks empty is because the event is so much better laid out this year and with the addition of it being larger, gives guests more freedom. Having said that, both times I went it was very busy but had a great atmosphere :)

    Hyde Park Winter Wonderland 2012/13

    I've just had two rather good visits to Winter Wonderland today and yesterday - it is much better laid out and also is probably double the size it was last year. The Wilde Maus XXL is brilliant and one of the highlights as is Air of course and Mannings Afterburner Show Time. I can confirm that...

    Hyde Park Winter Wonderland 2012/13

    London City coaster is quite good for what it is and if you haven't been on it before it's worth giving it a go. Martyn, yes that is a booster - a very good one in fact :) Winter Wonderland looks very impressive for this year and I'm looking forward to going :)

    Best Coaster/Ride Queue

    Favourite for me has to be Harry Potter & The Forbidden Journey - simply awesome and it ends with the best dark ride I've been on :)

    Best Bag-holding option?

    I like the bag-office type approach if I want to leave my bumbag which normally has my valuables inside but also, combat style trousers with zip pockets are a necessity for me as well.

    Top 10 scariest coasters/rides

    KMG's Mission Space - I'd heard all about it beforehand and knew it was a crazy ride but seeing it up close was another matter entirely! I experienced similar anxious feelings prior to riding it, but once it started, I began to enjoy it and it was really good :)

    Confessions on a Coaster Forum

    Although they usually get bad reviews, and there have been awful ones I've been on, there are 2 SLC's that I enjoyed which were Kumali & Jubilee Odyssey :)

    Rides with the best prelaunch section

    Superman Escape has an excellent pre-launch section and the themeing really added to the experience - the rest of the ride is also fab - it's still my joint top coaster along with Blue Fire :)
