Wicker Man is on 30 minutes as well. I thought woodies ran better in the rain?!

No they shouldn't. We're going next Friday.

Off to a bad start this morning. Smiler, Galactica and Oblivion all 'come back later'

The Smiler has been closed for majority of the afternoon, let's hope its not something the media can report on
EDIT: It seems Oblivion is carrying X-Sector this afternoon as the only operational ride in the area too.

Smiler's been on and off both yesterday and today so hopefully just an intermittent problem and nothing serious.

Looked like Rita & Galactica were down for a while earlier, and now Spinball is down it seems it's been hit and miss today, apart from Nemesis, Oblivion, Th13teen & Wicker Man.

Not a bad day today with a decent tally of rides but downtime on the smiler this afternoon meant no ride for me today!
Batching on the Wickerman was very hit and miss ... the batch host had to open the door to the preshow room to get people moving and filling the queueline in the station at one point after visiting BPB yesterday on a very busy day there I still don't think the WM staff are a patch on the Icon team with regards to getting that queue shifting! WM does run like a dream in the rain though
Not a bad 'un today at AT though, a little bit of my faith has been restored!

Without speaking too soon, does it seen that majority of Wicker Man's problems have been sorted? It doesn't seem to be going down as often anymore.

Has the smiler been down all day?

Not all day, it looked like it was late opening, it then closed, re-opened, closed again and is yet to open again, something significant must be up with it.

Hope they have it sorted for Friday and Saturday

was up and running all day on sunday without issues.
I have been here both Sunday and today and we are staying right through until and including Thursday. Yesterday, managed loads of rides, including all of the big seven as the park was quiet. Smiler is hit and miss, it breaks down regularly but they do their best to get it up and running fast. Oblivion is carrying a 5 minute queue for most of the day which is great. Wicker man is always a long queue, Thank goodness for ERT! It's so much faster than I expected, it's a really good ride.
No complaints here so far!
