Hey Jared, you been busted???
Your picture's gone all pixellated.
lol what does that mean? I changed it.
"Frozen to the bone"? Bless, it was mildly chilly at best.
What a silly thing to say. Standing outside in November for up to 7 hours? You'd be frozen to the bone too. Don't be so pedantic.
Ps. Why does nobody use the Quote feature on this forum? I frequent other forums who use the same software and quoting is seen as basic forum etiquette so everyone knows what you're referring to.
EDIT:
I'm still getting replies regarding what I've said about Fireworks Spectacular 2016 around the forum. Let it be made crystal clear that this is my final word on the subject because I need to clear some stuff up, I really don't want to get a name for myself and I worry I have not put across my thoughts in the best way. I do not want to come across as having needlessly exaggerated, or purely set out to defame the park. I will not be replying to any other comments regarding the 2016 Fireworks Spectacular after this:
I
love Alton Towers. As I've said multiple times - and that's another thing I cannot stress enough. My real one and
only issue with the Fireworks event was the amount of people admitted entry to the park. If numbers had been reduced significantly the event would have run much more smoothly, and the other issues we experienced would not have happened. This is something that
lots of other people mentioned (including on social media, not just on these forums) and I believe Alton Towers will have considered for this year's Fireworks Spectacular events. I have
every faith in Alton Towers to improve things. Having worked in visitor attractions, I understand how hard it is for a for-profit attraction to turn away paying customers when making money is the goal, regardless of how that affects the general experience of other customers.
The show itself was very enjoyable and very well put together, I would recommend the show to
anybody. I think we were just very taken aback by the amount of people there and how that affected our experience of the park that day. We'd only ever gone during the summer, outside of school holidays, for a great many consecutive years. This was the first 'special event' we had attended at the park.
I have hundreds more very, very positive and happy experiences of the Towers that I could go on for hours about. My experience of the Fireworks Spectacular has not, and will not, be detrimental to my opinions of the park or my future visiting prospects. It's easily my favourite theme park, and I feel very lucky to be relatively local.
I've now done this subject to death. Thank you for reading, and listening. Enjoy Alton Towers, enjoy these forums. Rejoice and be happy and kind to one another. See y'all around.
