I wouldn’t fully trust the website, I wouldn’t have thought Merlin would have set next years budget for the resort yet so things will probably change.
 
I wonder what will replace forbidden sweep. I'm guessing the chances of a new flat next season are very low given bugets and time?
 
I've just booked a night in the Enchanted Village for next years fireworks on the sunday....i like to be organised:D

On one of the vouchers it gives the opening date as the 16th of march which is a friday.....

Theme Park opens March 16th - November 4th 2018.

I've heard the operating budget is two crisp new style five pound notes and a packet of smokey bacon crisps.

That went to the board for approval and never got through. The original plan was for a Grab Bag packet of Walkers Smokey Bacon, but they realised they could get a Sainsburys Ready Salted multi pack for 89p instead and share it amongst the parks.
 
Why is the park opening on a Friday this year? I thought the park always opened on Saturdays.

I would be more than happy if they did open sw8 on that Friday but I just can't see it not opening on a weekend. I could be wrong though :)
 

A selection of photos from towersstreet showing closed season. Interestingly there is a purple rapids boat with modifications.
 
Just looks like a sample boat. Only one door fitted and head rest to the left of that and a rail on the right.

The safety door is a different shade of purple, so looks like that has been added independently of the original.

Look's like they have taken an old boat, and tried out a few mods on it before modifying the yellow boats
