Well, went to both parks recently, I'll add some photos soon!
Thorpe Park
Well, what a day! we hit Thorpe Early and got in with the first wave of people as the gates open, me and my sis legged it over to Colossus and what a ride! 10 Inversions is a sensation I can enjoy everytime, it was a awesome opening to the day, and what a sunny day! Nothings better than going over your 3rd Barrel Roll in broad hot sunshine, as soon as we got of the ride, we legged it (Stupidly) away from saw towards Nemesis Inferno, I Did NOT expect the amount of Gs on that loop PHWOAR!. Fantastic ride, still prefered Colossus but don't get me wrong Nemesis Inferno is wicked. Then we pounced over to Stealth, the que had already reached a reasonable 10-15mins but worth the wait, I've never been so anxious and tense in my life watching the red lights slowly countdown to green. What an acceleration! 0-80 in 1.8/1.9 secs, and you can feel it! Ignore all the bullshiz about it being a "mini Kindga Ka" it's a brilliant ride nonetheless! Ran over to Saw, heh. 4 Hour que anyone? Not for us thanks. I'm heading back out to Thorpe Park with my friend in about 3 weeks anyway, so I figured I'd ride it then. We then went on x/: No way out... "Was That It?" I remember the cart load saying when the ride came to a halt, yes it was our longest que so far, of about 45minutes. And it was terrible, I'm not going to lie, stop start stop start some boring storyline nobody actually cares about, Okai, so I might of enjoyed it more if I haven't of rode Colossus, Nemesis Inferno And Stealth beforehand, but it's not very good anyway, and for it to be classed as a "Extreme Thrill" is a joke! People who enjoyed it are people who don't ride big coasters, which is fine, I'm not insulting them, but for me I just didn't enjoy it. Okay, yes I did ride Flying Fish, because my mum declared it as the only ride she'll go on, so we did, and to be honest! It wasn't that bad! Better than No Way Out in my opinion and it got a bit of force. Not too shabby! Favourite Ride? Stealth Or Colossus.
Unfortunatly I can't post the Ride Picture of Nemesis cos Im not a member for 7 days, but I'll try see if I can use it as avatar!
EDIT: The ride picture of me and my sister on Nemesis Inferno is in my Avatar!
West Midlands Safari Park
What a good day out, okay it's not the most Thrillseeking place, or have the biggest rides, but we went there for my mums Birthday and it was a fun day! The Animal Drive through was immense! All them dears and wolves within 5ft of the car was a great experience, and the park afterwards was quite a bit of fun! And WOW Venom the drop tower was immense! The best thing about this place is there was only children and not many people rode the big rides, and it wasn't very populated anyway, you also had to pay for the rides so all in all ZERO QUES, we stayed on venom for a long long long time, we also rode Black Fly, a frisbee ride, not bad, but what a rubbish name! The fact the ride is themed to totem polls, and is called Black Fly, wth? lol, we also rode the madmouse ride, which was great bit of fun, okay, the park didn't have super fast accelerating rollercoaster over 400ft over 80mph with 5gs. But it was a fun place with zero ques, and venom was super! Favourite Ride: Venom/MadMouse.
