    Categorisation of UK regions

    The problem is that people think those airports are in London and get charged significantly more to get to the capital than they should do, Stansted to London Liverpool Street is £23 (or a £100 fine if you try using an Oyster card) while Heathrow to London Paddington is £5.60. It also means that...

    Categorisation of UK regions

    I find many people don't know what's in London and what isn't which often leads to confusion. Gatwick, Stansted and Luton airports often call themselves London despite being in West Sussex, Essex and Bedfordshire respectively. Warner Bros Studios Tour also seems to be adamant they are in London...

    John Wardley New Book

    I will give some of my thoughts now I have time. The scope: I wasn't quite sure what was going to be included. Of course Wicker Man, Alton Manor and Nemesis Reborn would be covered but that wouldn't be enough for a book. It also covers Hex and the history of various types of rides. He also gives...

    [2024] Thorpe Park: Hyperia - Mack Hypercoaster

    I reckon Blackpool Pleasure Beach is the only major park within an exclusion zone. Legoland is just outside Windsor Castle, Universal will be just outside Cranfield. But I'm going outside the topic's scope.

    Potential New Universal UK Park

    I wasn't sure how locals would react, in the last few years Luton Council have been trying to expand Luton Airport which has been incredibly unpopular especially with folks outside Luton however the airport plans are way closer to houses (they include building a new terminal in a local park) and...

    Potential New Universal UK Park

    When they say a fast service from London to Wixams skipping Luton, I reckon they mean adding stops to existing Nottingham services as there is no spare capacity on the Midland Main Line and the line has become notorious for militant rail user groups who will fight over any cuts to services...

    Thorpe Park: General Discussion

    They're expecting gusts 40mph tomorrow and Sunday which is enough to close most of their rides judging by the chart on the ride availability page however these are expected to only be for the odd hour so I reckon guests who go should still get on a lot if some choose to reschedule tickets.

    Rollercoaster Tycoon is 25

    I also can't imagine any more recent simulations allowing you to kill guests (rct3 allowed you to put guests in the Lions den but they'd never get eaten)
