Considering you're going after the schools go back it should be really quiet.
I went to Drayton a week after the schools went back last year and the park was like a ghost town. I would expect Towers to be the same.

Thank you, the weather report for the 6th says 15mph winds is there a certain speed that the Smiler won't operate at? I'm getting a bit obsessive about it haha

There is yes, although I think you should be fine if it's 15mph.

I think Smiler and Oblivion cease ops at 30mph, so yes you should be fine

Sorry for the slightly off-topic aside, but has Oblivion always ceased ops at 30mph? Surely there's little chance it could stall?

Is it not more to do with the safety of guests and staff in the event of an evac from the top of the ride?

Yeah, it is very exposed up there. I assume guests have to wear safety harnesses during an evac?Is it not more to do with the safety of guests and staff in the event of an evac from the top of the ride?
