Wasn't gonna bother with a trip report as we didn't take THAT many photos and most people know what to expect from the park but in the end I wanted somewhere to jot my thoughts down. Pretty easy to get to, so much so that I'm surprised I hadn't done it sooner. Fly into Schipol, take the train...

Eh, I figured why not because if for anything I'll use it myself to read through when I can't sleep in a few years time (as I tend to do now and then in case any of you randomly get a "like" on a post from years ago). So after fretting about trying to do a multi-park trip around Northern...

Because I couldn't find any topic for this after a quick look even though I'm sure we must have had one at some point. Was having a chat earlier and realised that for all the talk about how we rank the coasters we've been on, there's not necessarily the same ranking for the parks they're in...

Have heard and seen a lot about Phantasialand, particularly after Taron's arrival and I've wondered what all the hype was about. Was due a big theme park trip too after not really doing much this year so figured out that Phantasialand was possible on the cheap, then decided to ignore that...

Only just come across this, was nice to see an explore video of a closed park that isn't Camelot;

I'm sure this isn't anything new as I swear that the Merlin parks have been running with Picsolve for a while now, but had it at Paultons yesterday and I just need to vent. So there may be little discussion value here whatsoever, or there may be. We'll see when we get to the end of this...

Having ummed and ahhed for a while, finally bit the bullet and booked up flights to Euroairport before spending hour after hour trying to figure out how best to approach getting to Europa Park. For this, the DB Navigator app and the Bahn website was an absolute god send. You can skip this...

I really liked the one about first inversion actually, it had some discussion value.

Thought I'd written up a small report for this but apparently not (or it's too late and I'm losing it and have missed it), so have a bit of text and some pictures. Actual day at Thorpe was ****, mainly because there's not a lot there we actually enjoy enough to bother with, so we only...

Not long back from Madrid, managed to get 11 of the 13 creds available, plus see a Real Madrid game and some Pandas and Brown Bears. Having fretted about just how to get to PWM, or indeed on how to use the Madrid Metro in general given some of the horror stories online, it's beyond simple so at...

Sure we had a topic discussing the future expansion proposals for Seaworld that included whole new tanks and areas for their existing orcas, I wonder if this decision will affect that. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-35829477

Have I completely lost my mind or was there no poll last year? The ushosho thingy website only has results for 2013 and I can't for the life of me remember filling out anything last year for it. Anybody know what's going on an am I just having a brain fart?

I didn't really take that many pictures so there may be some RCDB images on the off chance I'm not the last person on here to mop up these creds and someone may not know what I'm on about. Plus I'm bored and like having trip reports to look back on. Last (and possibly only time, don't recall...

Statty bit out the way first. Park was open 3pm-10pm on both days we visited (Weds/Thurs), on the second day the park was heaving as they had Wycleaf Jean performing. We were on park 3pm-8.30pm Weds and 4pm-6.30pm Thurs as we had to catch our flight. Ride count; Balder x 8 Helix x 8...

tl dr; meh Can't believe I never realised Drayton Manor was only an hours drive away. With tickets at £20 if pre-booked online, and 2 credits since I last visited, we decided to book it up and see if the park had improved since my last visit where I didn't expect to be visiting for quite a...

Not really a theme park trip but one had a credit and one had waterslides so may be of interest to people. Went to Tenerife mainly because I wanted to go somewhere Spanish that would be hot and have stuff to do and also be near a beach, ruling out Madrid for the parks or Barcelona because...

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article ... night.html Adventure Island in Southend-On-Sea allegedly shut up the park whilst this guy and his family were still at the top of the ferris wheel ride on park. Their sob story is pretty standard as theme-park-related sob stories tend to go, but...

DEREK, WE WERE ARRRFF TO BENIDORM! So yeah, week away with a beach, decent weather and a theme park and having done PA in September decided we'd go for Benidorm this time. Swam with dolphins amongst other things whilst there but I'll spare you the details and just focus on Terra Mitica for now...

Spent my weekend up in Yorkshire with a 'day' at each of these parks. I say a 'day' because We spent about 5 hours at FL when it was open for 7 and 3 hours at LWV when it was open for 6 and a half. Was my third time to FL and first visit to LWV, but having not been up that neck of the woods for...

Those of you who follow me on Twitter may have seen a few of the (many) arguments I end up in with bigoted cretins, mostly EDL or BNP members. Essentially this is another instance of a park hiring itself out to a muslim group, out-of-season, as they do with anybody else who can stump up the...
