Yes they allow paying guests to admit friends and family but you can’t just rock up and use the water park without being a pre-booked, invited friend/family of a paying guest.- jon81uk

Center Parcs don't allow day guests, so very different to a general access water park.- jon81uk

Yep a large park that you might need two days at feels like it makes more sense than a second gate. Better to feel like one park has too much to see & do (like Europa), compared to one park with one satisfying day and a second park that feels small and not full (like Disneyland Paris and Walt...- jon81uk

The Traitors (WARNING: Potential spoilers!)
Didn’t find it anywhere, it’s just what has happened. Not sure why you don’t think two traitors can just split it? It’s also plausible that the producers of that Australian season wanted a little more drama in an otherwise slightly boring end game.- jon81uk

A significant number of people stay over at the hotel and then go to the water park in the morning on the second day. Makes more sense to be open from 10am for those guests.- jon81uk

The Traitors (WARNING: Potential spoilers!)
Rachel and Stephen played very well and the first team traitors win really. Would have gone very differently if they had banished Racheal or chance got her out. Then might have seen Faraaz and Jack or Stephen win.- jon81uk

Universal Epic Universe - New Florida Theme Park
I've seen rumour and discussion in the past that had Pokemon as a Kidzone replacement, but that has now gone to Dreamworks. Or Pokemon as a Simpsons replacement or an expansion into the space between Simpsons and Men in Black, or in IoA replacing the last of Lost Continent, or into Epic. My...- jon81uk

But I think the expectation of what a Christmas at Alton Towers with a hotel stay etc is very different to an event at Adventure Island or BPB. I think that's where a lot of the recent poor scores come from you go to Alton or Legoland with a level of expectation and then if the product doesn't...- jon81uk

The Morality and Politics Surrounding Visiting Specific Theme Parks
I have two trips to the US coming up but barely staying there as a cruise is the major part of the trip. I am considering if I want to visit the USA further. We got Global Entry to avoid immigration queues and the interview part of that was not a great welcome in September 2025, I would have...- jon81uk

Alton Towers resort is 3.8/5 on TripAdvisor, which reflects similar complaints on queue times and the like. Legoland Windsor is only on 3.2 though, largely from a terrible Christmas offering. Chessington also 3.2, Thorpe a little better at 3.7. Drayton Manor is 3.9, Blackpool Pleasure Beach...- jon81uk

I don't think this is a completly nothing season, there is the Bluey coaster. But yes hopefully they do have a big plan for 2027 or 28. Also TLC originally was just a plan to tidy-up and restore run-down things in the first year or two, it was later on when it got hijacked as an excuse for...- jon81uk

Redevelopment of Katanga Canyon
As much as I think the park boudary expanding so we add a ride rather than replacing would be a good thing, where would the coaches go? Maybe the bit closer to the main car parks could get resurfaced and used, but on some days there are a significant number of coaches at AT. Personally I think...- jon81uk

Oh but the drama of people going nuclear against Rachel and then self-eliminating is fantastic. For two people to have done a similar thing is making this good TV.- jon81uk

What is your roast dinner meat of choice?
Chicken if I'm cooking usually because its the cheapest option and fairly easy to cook and sort. But if I'm out then I'll often get beef.- jon81uk
