    Personally, I think they would sooner stop the night racing then start banning drivers for individual races, that would just be ridiculous. However, they made a point of making a real fuss of Singapore this weekend, and the fact that Bernie has extended the contract till 2017?? From what I have...

    Disneyland Paris gets financial help

    Yeah, I heard some rumours about that. Particularly about replacing the Pochahontas section. Could you share any light on it? I know that on our last visit in 2010 they have spent a fair chunk upgrading sound/lighting/technical equipment... I say, in terms of Paris, get rid of that DIRE excuse...

    Hmm, that is very interesting, it could potentially raise safety questions about night racing. Ok, so Michael and Pedro are both known to have this particular eye condition, what if more did? I mean, I suppose you could take the view that technically, he is not 'fit' to drive the car in those...

    Rumor: Hollywood Studios gets Green Light for Cars Land

    ^ Indeed, I don't doubt Disney will come up with something. I wonder whether it would be possible to have some kind of smaller train system. Ideally, you would want something that is just 1 single row or possibly two, like a wild mouse coaster car suspended, and that way you have plenty of...

    Disneyland Paris gets financial help

    See, the main reason I think Fantastmic would work so well, is because it has very little in the way of language barriers. The vast majority of the story is told via the songs and the visuals. If they updated it to include more of the modern stories or even the French based ones, it could work...

    Another Crappy Publicity Stunt From Thorpe

    Oh for the love of humanity!!! Although, tbh, it did make me chuckle.

    I think I changed my team at the beginning of the season and I haven't even logged into it since. I too can't be bothered with chopping and changing. Especially considering the fact I have found this season as dull as dishwater. From the horrible coverage on sky to the totally fake racing itself...

    Disneyland Paris gets financial help

    Well, fingers crossed it is a fresh start. I don't mean to be negative but I'm not gonna get all excited just yet. Paris is certainly one of the prettiest in the Disney line up and I think that should be the first thing they look at. The parks and hotels need the spruce up. After that I think...

    Rumor: Hollywood Studios gets Green Light for Cars Land

    With regardsto the MI coaster idea I would imagine it will be a family invert like the Jimmy Neutron one in Germany Movie World (or whatever it is called). Although, I wonder whether they might work on different trains. The problem with inverts is that unless you have a front row seat, your...

    Rumor: Hollywood Studios gets Green Light for Cars Land

    I get you Martyn. You mean in terms of theme right? And I agree, I'm not sure what angle they are gonna take to make it work tbh

    Rumor: Hollywood Studios gets Green Light for Cars Land

    ^Agreed. Since when was the only other option nothing though? Disney are masters at dusting off old plans and revitalising them etc. They have enough of them. Beastly Kingdom being just one of them! Granted, they would probably get extra funding if they went for a tie-in with a non Disney...

    Rumor: Hollywood Studios gets Green Light for Cars Land

    I couldnt agree more Jordan. A) why bother duplicating it, all it encourages is irritating comparisons. b) Also, it doesnt exactly encourage people to try different resorts does it. Why bother going over to Cali if you can do it all in Florida... EURGH! c) it simply smacks of being totally...

    The Wedding - Marc & Mark Evans-Leigh - Photos Now Added

    Re: The Wedding - Marc & Mark Evans-Leigh - 28.08.12 So now I have the photos I can write some kind of report… After countless months of planning and having our living room look like the backstage storage for an episode of Blue Peter with paint, glitter and all manner of craft materials...

    Revolution paint job - New or Bru?

    I don't particularly like it. I am all for a bit of a spruce up and going for contemporary styling but while I love the new logo, the paint scheme just looks like filthy white. Although, I will say, judging by those photos it now contrasts with the orange of the Rollercoaster paint job. If they...

    Thorpe Fright Nights 2012

    The scariest thing I've ever seen in a Thorpe maze was years ago. There was a woman sat on a larder freezer and bashing a babies head against it whilst all the while giving the passers by the most sinister look. It certainly wasn't a jump out scare but I found far more unnerving and 'scary'. It...

    Magic Kingdom | 7 Dwarfs Mine Train Coaster | Vekoma/Disney

    Re: Seven Dwarfs Mine Train Coaster - Magic Kingdom (WDW) Yeah, I knew it had to be around the 3+ years area. I remember it being announced in 2003 and then opening in 2006 and following the whole thing. I was always under the impression that the Seven Dwarfs coaster was set to open in late...

    The act of giving out cards.

    I tend to stick to giving cards for the extra special occasions. Weddings, Engagements, New Child, etc etc. I.e. anything that doesnt happen every single year. The whole christmas/birthday cards can be a bit tedious. What I can't abide is that they now even do Happy Easter, St. Patricks Day and...
