For different reasons I had a phenomenally great day yesterday, one of those rare magical moments of theme park brilliance thanks to The Sanctuary, perhaps my favourite ever attraction at Towers bar Nemesis.
If that had not have happened though, I would be ripping into the place for yesterday - it was awful. Being shunted all round the park to find something open during ERT (Skyride being closed didn't help, not that I use it - but it is the PRINCIPLE PEOPLE!! PRINCIPLE!!
- wind obviously though) and eventually just waiting in Dark Forest to even OPEN, then Rita and Th13teen playing up, the dispatch on Rita just seemed a joke to us - everything was so slow! Must have been 9:50 before we got on a ride, that's pretty disgusting.
I didn't even bother with Oblivion given what everyone has been saying lately - and I am glad I didn't by the sounds of it.
I have to say, that is the worst I have ever experienced on park and even my diminutive little family member was pointing obvious things out repeatedly, as were other members of the public around. That is when you know it's bad.
No idea what is happening, but the one thing that is usually bang on at Towers is they get their rides working well, and staff are great. Felt more like THORPE yesterday on a bad day.
I have no doubt there will be reasons for it, but they've been open a full month now - and yesterday wasn't exactly rammed, but it felt it at times!
Most popular, and well run attraction presently at Towers closed yesterday. Even Berry Bish Bash broke down, and all the balls got stuck in a cannon so it was more like a treasure hunt.
Yesterday was all about The Sanctuary closing day for me, and that is why I am not all that fussed, if it had been like that on a "normal" day though I'd have been seething by the end of it.
