It's crap, it just slows everything down. Plus they had no staff whatsoever, and the ones there seem to be suffering from end of season fatigue.

I was on the fish yesterday and it ran as usual? One other comment to make though was that everything was on either one train operation or they'd closed baggage holds such as The Swarm's. It made what could have been a great day a really quite crap one.

What strikes me is how small the dodgems seem for a large Theme Park? Surely the queues for them will be ridiculous?

Tim, if you don't mind me asking, was the Duplo water attraction meant to be indoors rather than outside and free with park admission?

See, one part of me wants to say 'Great another Merlin cookie-cutter investment', but another part of me is very excited to see how this turns out. It looks like it could be really fun. Mind you, it is basically a Lego version of Sub Terra.

I've never been to Gardaland, but according to the website you have to pay an extra 15 euros to enter the Sea Life Centre? Crumbs at least in Britain they're included in the entry

Quick question, when would you play something like The Smiler's music? Like, it's hardly BBQ music?

Re: Alton towers busses not on there website? http://www.nottsderby.co.uk/service-time-tables/ I believe this may be of some help for those more local

Actually I'm gonna go against the grain here, I liked Submission and I'm a tad sad that it's leaving. I admit he restraints were a tad uncomfortable but in terms of 'thrill' Submission was Alton Towers' best thrill ride. Nemesis Sub Terra isn't really a thrill ride it's an experience, Enterprise...

I don't know who they're trying to market to? I'm ruling myself out, I'm 21, male and with a beard and to me I've not seen anything which would encourage me to visit? Especially with this Angry Birds stuff. They're not pitching to younger families especially well with the constant memes which...

It looks very messy. I'd of preferred to see a new style image for this season

No Xmas sale? :(

Re: Legoland discovery- the trafford centre I'd recommend the Sea Life centre, a couple of slightly different tanks to those you usually see and there's some really nice projections especially the turtle beach

Re: 2014: CBeebies Land I like the brand and I think it will be fairly lucrative for the park, I only have a couple of worries: First off is the BBC license issue. We all pay a TV license to the BBC, which we hope goes towards programming and all the goodness of the BBC. I understand that...

I respect your view, but why is it terrible?

I visited ages ago and part of one of the tours I tagged onto the end of mentioned how the previous owners were selling off large parts of the castle to wealthy visitors who would make on the spot offers for heirlooms which they would then buy. I know that Merlin have transformed it into a money...

Re: 2014: Old MacDonald's Farmyard Developments Just looking at the plans that James has posted and one building is called 'Foam Factory'? Any ideas what that refers to?

Re: 2014: Old MacDonald's Farmyard Developments Very odd that there's not going to be a new ride, I can only imagine that this new show or performance will be marketed in the same way Madagascar live was at Chessington. Still it all hangs on what IP they've decided on!

Re: Thorpe Park I'm going to throw something out here, I don't think Thorpe Park is fun. Fun to me is a day out where you have loads of different experiences, so feeding lorikeets one moment and then riding a massive rollercoaster the next. Fun is the look of horror on people's faces as they...

I completely agree with you, which is why I think offers run by smaller parks such as the current £25/£20 offer at Drayton Manor are fairer and in fact better value. Still, it annoys me that some people have to pay a frankly bonkers made up number because two of their mates got in BOGOF.
