As we know Pleasure Island is closing (again??) So is anyone around for their Halloworks Bash? From what I gather the park is open 14:30 - 20:00
 
Apologies dear, myself, @Rob and @Russell went last weekend!

The park actually didn't look as run down as I expected, though it was very quiet. And by very quiet I mean dead. With only a handful of operating days left in the calendar I had half expected a fairly busy day... but it was not to be.

Enjoy! The Boomerang is really rather smooth :p

Your post on FB was the one to inspire my trip :p Boomerang wasn't half bad 10 years ago and Hydromax burnt itself in to my mind as one of the earliest theme park memories I have (loaded first so remember that view whilst the second was loading)

It just frustrates me that this is going and crap like Fantasy Island was rescued (my TR from 2 years back sums it up for me)

I expect the park to have a few more folks in, but whether they have just fireworks bands or ride bands as well remains to be seen.

P.S. Where is McCormack's Bar? They said not to print tickets and just go there with them on the email
 
@Sazzle really enjoyed it tbh. The staff were on it and seemed really happy and helpful in their fancy dress. Park ended up far busier than it ever was designed to cope with but my final memory is Hydromax in the dark, fitting as that first ride on it means so much to me

Fireworks were meh with no music etc and Obliterator was evil and horrid but I'm sad to see it go as Wood genuinely seemed to care and holes that don't deserve to exist carry on fine :(

@DiogoJ42 Terror Rack failed after about 30 mins opening XD

I didn't try to do it as it looked so bad, Obliterator is one of the worst rides I have ever ridden though

I'm impressed they got Obliterator open, it was down all day when we went and with the park closing you couldn't have blamed them for just giving up on it.

:)
