What ever happened to this coaster when Southport closed down I'm 2006? With Blackpool's wild mouse gone it would be nice to find out it's still in storage somewhere and not been scrapped.

I have just been looking at season pass prices for next year and on the Merlin website it appears to be cheaper to pay monthly than pay the whole thing upfront. Isn't it usually suppose to be the other way around? I think it came to just under £140 for the monthly option and £179 to pay up-font...

There doesn't seem to be anything about it on Wiki, I definitely remember there being one but I was to young at the time to have a go. If I remember rightly it had a somewhat gory name and it was near a kids play area somewhere behind Mischief Mansion

It's something that I wondered for years. The ship still moves, presumably it couldn't have huge operational costs. I just remember it been a really cool walk through ride and never actually found out why they closed it.

I was reading online last night and I came across this park Id never heard of before on RCDB. Apparently it had a Corkcscrew, was this same modal as Alton Towers and Flamingo Land and does any one have old pictures / stories about this place?

Is there any truth to the sale that is allegedly on until the end of October? I got told they are on sale for £99 or am I just being trolled?

My Dad rang me before saying he would really like to go on Air now it has VR. I am the only one out of my friends who owns a Merlin Pass, I'm sure I have read somewhere that I can get friends / family discounts on park entry. Is this true, if so how do I go about it? Thanks Dan

I did search the forums for this topic but I didn't stumble across anything. a Friend told me about these videos on youtube and I wondered what the enthusiast comity's opinions are on the matter? This guy is saying that the Smiler crash was a big hoax, the Facebook profiles of the victims don't...

I was just browsing Facebook and came across this report, http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article ... l-facebook I know it's the daily mail and to not be trusted but I just wanted to know if there is any truth to this? I usually avoid parks in high season but if it is this dead it might be...

I had never even heard of this town Until Wednesday planning my trip to Drayton Manor. I just want to say how friendly everyone we came into contact with was. I first spoke to someone in a cab office who was very friendly with us. Then the taxi driver himself, he was talking to us about where we...

Went on The Haunting for the rest time yesterday, and really enjoyed it, but I cant work out of it was better than Hex or not. I cant work out if the effects are better as there new to me, I have just done Hex to many times or the ride is actually better.

Just been listening to Talksport of all things and heard that Merlin have shut all their gerstlauer rides. I wounder if Rage and Speed have also closed?

First park of the year so been a while since I have done one of these. Due to unforeseen circumstances which I'm sure you are well aware, We couldn't do our Alton Towers trip so decided to give Drayton Manor a try. It was my and my friends first time at the park (I kinda had that kid before...

So due to Alton been shut tomorrow We have decided to give Drayton Manor a try. (Never been before so it's completely new ground for me). I have been looking online and cant make heads or tails of the information. We will be coming from Stoke to Tamworth on the train (As I already had tickets...

Have plans to go, obviously I know it's shut today but cant find out any information about tomorrow, anyone know anything?

I'm planning a trip to Alton with a friend who lives in Stockport, neither of us drive so we are using public transport. I know not every one in the world lives in these locations but I worked out a time table and prices that may be of use to some people. (these times are for weekdays)...

I have really bad muscle damage in my right leg and have to use a crutch to walk about a lot of the time. I was queuing for about half an hour in my local post office and found it hard to stand for so long. I don't have a Doctors note or anything like that, but I have just got my new Merlin...

I have had a hard winter and finally in a position to get my Merlin pass. I have looked around the net and the cheapest I have seen is £120. I want to buy one for myself and treat my girlfriend to one, are there any offers at all during this time of the season?

Went on the Merlin pass for two days with a friend. We were just going to for for a day, but as we didn't get on The Smiler on the first day we found a local BnB in Uttoxeter Payed £60 on the door, really good BnB i you cant get a place to stay any closer. They served a brilliant full English...

Me and a friend are going on Thursday and was wondering if The Smiler has ERT for standard pass holders at the moment? Thanks in advance
