*obvious joke alert*

It's all about Squirrel Nutty tbh. It's so intense, the memory of riding it was blocked from my mind. ;)

*end of obvious joke*
 
The only ride that has ever scared me at Alton (excluding my very first time on Oblivion aged 10) is Duel. Until 2008 I never made it all the way round with my eyes open :-[

I love it now though and usually end up riding so much I get a trigger finger related RSI :p
 
My first day at Alton and I rode oblivion first only because my dad said it wasn't scary and didn't go underground.
 
I'm nearly 35 and I only went on Nemesis for the first time on Saturday. (although I've only been to the park 4 times as an adult and the last 2 years it was either closed or the queue was too long and it was the end of the day)

I also went on the Runaway Mine Train for the first time and screamed when it went in the dark bit :D

I chickened out of the Marauder's Mayhem (teacups) because we'd not long had lunch and I thought I might be sick.

I think everyone's done this at one point... It's not nice before or after lunch!
 
I've never set foot in Old MacDonald's Farmyard.

Sorry for the double post but I agree! I still get scared on duel and come off screaming. Also I have never been on sub-terra and genuinely love ripsaw.
 
I normally hardly eat at theme parks but during adrenaline week a few years ago I pigged out at the pizza and pasta buffet in KC so much that I had to do a tactical in the loos in Gloomy Wood.

Then rode Oblivion a few times to settle my stomach.

I wish I could say that was the time I finally conquered my fear of Enterprise and that it was worth it but that didn't happen for another couple of years in 2011. That was the last time I visited too.

Also, I remember noticing how retro the toilets were just before said chunder.
I think that is also worthy of confession-status hahaha.
