    Incident on The Smiler 02/06/2015

    That article is fantastic. Gave me goose bumps! I'm am too proud of Alton Towers and while we can't turn back the clock, we cant all stand still either. Life goes on even for those with the life changing injuries. Tragedy happens every single day, bombs going off, plane crashes, car crashes. It...

    Incident on The Smiler 02/06/2015

    Hi all, Thought I'd mention this because it made me feel better when he told me. My Husband has had the luck of being on an H&S training course with one of the H&S execs that were on the site of the Smiler for 4 weeks investigating!. This man confirmed that there was absolutely nothing wrong...

    Incident on The Smiler 02/06/2015

    This is so sad. I used my Smiler Umbrella the other day and have sweatshirts? Does this mean people are going to stop wearing clothes as well? It was a horrible accident, but people shouldn't feel ashamed to have the merchandise just because they enjoyed the ride. I'm almost scared that if I do...

    Cigarettes sold in Towers Trading

    The problem is that you are told to only use designated areas and people blatently ingore this rule. If they didn't have this rule then fair enough, but the fact is they do and its marketed all over the park. It makes people who do actually obide by this simple ruling feel annoyed that others...

Just ignorant chavs that chose to smoke where they like! No one will tell them thats the thing! As for selling themI guess they are making money off it so...

    [The Smiler] Construction Updates / Ride Speculation Part 2 *SPOILER FREE*

    Re: [The Smiler] Construction Updates and Ride Speculation Part 2 I give up. I'm not getting into this again because it became personal. I guess I take it a bit personal because I have been going to Alton since 1983, and back then it was a very different place. Others who have come in and...

    [The Smiler] Construction Updates / Ride Speculation Part 2 *SPOILER FREE*

    Re: [The Smiler] Construction Updates and Ride Speculation Part 2 A bit presumptious. I remember when the people who visited Alton didn't deface queues, walls, toilets with Graffiti and drop litter. Maybe Alton have let things slide because when they do clear things up, idiots ruin it. Maybe...

    Re: [The Smiler] Construction Updates and Ride Speculation Part 2 I agree, BUT The title does say "and ride speculation" so people are going to "speculate" and that will cause debate in itself. I just want some positive comments, I'm not able to pop in as we live so far away so reply on good...

    Re: [The Smiler] Construction Updates and Ride Speculation Part 2 Ah yes, but we moaned about Sub Terra on opening day, and they responded to it, and now we have a much better ride. ;) I agree it is better. They may well have come to that conclusion themselves though because we were asked...

    Re: [The Smiler] Construction Updates and Ride Speculation Part 2 I'm not saying you can't, but reading this thread of late has just been negative comments about it. At the end of the day, i'm not rollercoaster designer nor could I build one, so hats off to those who are working all hours to...
