that was just the fine they had to pay.. went into the governments pockets

And then right back into Merlin’s pockets via a tax rebate

Do any of you expect to hear much more from this story after the lawsuit? I hope it will conclude after this.

It'll probably quiet down a little bit until the promo for the movie starts!

Ah right. Thanks for the clarification @bluesonichd!

8.30 a.m. and not a single car on the main car park. Hotel seems quiet. Weather not great. Calling a potential quiet one on park today. Could be wrong.........

 

[Rob]

I expect the park will be pretty dead today, the forecast is dire!

Yeah, take a brolly, as long as security know it's s brolly and don't mistake it for a kingsman issue machine gun, you should be fine. @ihaveaspergers knows what I mean

I imagine they will mistake it for a Cyanide capsule launcher.

Still half hour for most coasters though.
Mr Whicker being walk on looks nice.

How can Blivvy have a 30min q and WM be walk on.
Some kind of witchcraft me thinks

Ride stoppage?

Probably more to do with that the WM is the only ride with the best ride operation on the park

Hope these wait times keep up for the weekend, expecting a bit of thunder to slow down the day on sunday but not all day, fingers crossed

If you have iOS12 i’ve created a shortcut so you can just ask Siri for queue times!
(Go into shortcut settings and set a Siri phrase - I use “What are the queues like at Towers?”)

Just about to head off to Alton Towers, taking a group of Scouts to camp, and put tents up on the lawns at the bottom of Towers Street.
Should be entering the Theme park just when everyone else has left

Sounds great - I'd love to camp inside the park. Are you free to roam around as you like?

 

[chilli2]

Just restricted to the lawns area, Towers street, and the roadway up by the side of Spinball

I love RideTimes because it means 20-30 times a day I can look to see how long people I've never met are waiting to go on rides. If it ever went down I don't know what I'd do. Probably go to Alton Towers, which is my second favourite thing to do after checking RideTimes.

Towers grand plan for the cheap season pass has been revealed!
