Quite right on your last point there my friend. At least it isn't "the norm" such as the weekly knife incidents in London that go relatively unreported. And I agree, perhaps I got a little too twitchy about the press, personally I don't think the reporting of The Smiler incident was a good...
Permit me to share my thoughts via blog post with this forum. I've carefully read through this entire thread and taken into account some very good arguments presented about this ride. Please take a read if you're bored or whatever.
I'll be interested to see what the HSE verdict on the incident...
This an awful idea and I can't be bothered with it. Mako was AMAZING without a doubt, but I believe Galactica demonstrates that V.R on a rollercoaster doesn't work (IMO). Kraken is a fantastic ride with lots of twists and turns and to throw a goggle on and block out the view, I feel, will take...
Just a little video to show how much Hollywood Studios has become Star Wars theme park... Not a bad thing, but they've gone all in for it. Here's a daytime typical parade! XD

I have to weigh in on this briefly. First of all my deepest sympathy lies with the family of young Evha. No matter the circumstances this is a horrible, awful tragedy. Eleven. Years. Old. It's hard to read.
My thoughts go out to the family, and also to the other school kids riding that...
Not ride news but a viral story just came out about a guy taking his girlfriend to Hollywood Studios to break up with her and it just absolutely fascinates me that somebody would decide to do that at a theme park, let alone a Disney one!
I wrote a blog entry explaining it for those interested...
I haven't got one yet. And won't be buying one for some of the above reasons. However, if you save your club card points up enough you can get one through Tesco Clubcard Boost so me and the wife are doing that. By the time we've got money for two of them the parks will have announced all they...
This topic caught my eye. I think I'd personally struggle to do an entire theme park alone and would have the checking my mobile phone issue as well. I usually visit places with my wife and she flat out refuses to do water rides. Not wanting to miss the fun, I do these single rider! I can relate...
Trip Report: I've been and it was pretty good! Rather than right a huge lengthy review I've made one of my usual vlogs about the day so you can see what I saw. I'll put that at the bottom of this post.
The best part for me was that we went just at the end of peak season so the park was open...
Fantastic news. Because we all love Galactica and the queues are always long to ride such a fantastic VR experience.
Who thought this was a good idea!?
I went to CWOA today. It was terrible. More on this later! Essentially their operations and managing queue systems needs work compared to other parks in the U.K...

According to TP Twitter it's open today, there was a minor outage earlier but very short term and it's now running with 90min queue (which seems short!)

Following on from my earlier post, we made a little vlog of our day at Alton Towers at the end of July, which primarily started with/centred around checking out Galactica. I put a little video footage in there of our thoughts if you're interested, if not or if it annoys you then ignore this...
Sure sounds like a security breach to me! Kidding aside, I feel Alton Towers would likely not respond to any requests to see behind the scenes but let me know if you do get through!
I personally just think the VR isn't worth it. Maybe I expected too much? But I felt the graphics were quite poor and I didn't feel immersed at all, I also only had one ear working when I rode it. We rode it again without the VR straight after and I really, really enjoyed going through the...
Wow. I'm certainly not going until late 2017 then. Let's hope it gets better not worse with the anniversary celebrations coming up...
