    Blackpool Pleasure Beach: General Discussion

    I agree this is not a good sign (low - average attendances on a hot bank holiday weekend). I've only seen one advert for Icon but several for WM (Sheffield area). On the otherhand I was down at Towers on Sunday and while there were a decent number of people there, it should have been rammed on a...

    People rubbishing Wickerman as inferior to ICON

    Yep, I concur with this. To give an idea of costs, I have been looking at going to Europa Park late August. Prices are coming in at around £800 for me to take my kids, stay 2 nights in a budget apartment, hire car in Germany, two day park tickets and fly using Ryan Air (cheapest of all...

    Having seen some POVs of Dwervelwind and been on Cobra's Curse, I would love to see a Mack spinner at BPB! Dwervelwind layout looks much better than CC, but the latter has superior theming. Either that or a new wooden wild mouse, preferably built by GCI. :)

    Blackpool Pleasure Beach: General Discussion

    To be fair to the park, they stayed open until 5pm yesterday. A member of staff informed me that only 400 people went through the turnstiles. So, its unlikely it closed saturday due to low attendance. Rides were walk on, including PMBO. All the staff were very friendly and courteous, despite the...

    2018: Wicker Man - General Discussion - SPOILERS! - Part One

    Just a thought, but could it be a huge Viking warrior statue with horned helmet?
