Bootharawwwrrr

Brilliant end to the trip report Craig, looking forward to your next one! Taken me by surprise, I expected a quite half assed attempt to make this new land, to get a quick buck, however, it looks very well thought out and put together, very impressed. I totally agree with the comments made earlier in this topic, that Blackpool is seen as a bit of dump, with not very nice locals, this is one of the few reasons I have yet to make a trip up North, good luck to them trying to shake this image and once again, great report!

Oh man it feels good dusting off my old TPR account, like meeting back up with an old friend (only nothing like that at all)... Brilliant trip report there mate, was really funny and very informative, don't think I'll ever be able to forget that strange man's junk. Looking forward to part 2, want to see how well this new land fits in with the rest of the park, and what the new rides are like. In all honesty though, I think I would of preferred to see a sponsorship like this taken on by another UK park, as in MY opinion, Blackpool is quite an intimidating place for the young children and maybe, just maybe, that may subtract from how nice the new land is. That hotel looks awesome though, definitely the place you want to sleep in after a day of whoring coasters. Oh Craig, when you do find Spongebob, please kill him right there on the spot, good luck on the rest of your quest!

Great update mate, but I think I speak for all of us when I say, upload the freaking closed season photos soon!! Not too fussed about the sea life if I'm honest, really not a fan of fishes.

I really like the idea of the microsite, hopefully that will get people talking about it more. I hope Chloe's eyes aren't messing with her, if not this is going to be something really special!

Thanks TPDave, I read it again and I was wrong, it says 600 TO 1000 per hour on the Mega Disko. The hourly figure for a Disko Coaster, which Kobra is, is infact 500 to 600 people. Sorry about the confusion there.

Recently I've been thinking about the throughput for Kobra, I read somewhere that a Disko coaster has a throughput per hour of 1000, which is better than Fury. Now when I was at Paultons Park, Edge took ages to load, so what I'm asking is, is the 1000 per hour figure correct or are they having us on?

I'm amazed you managed to get pictures that good, as those fences are pretty tall! I'm very excited for this new land and I feel it is going to help secure Chessington as the UK's best family day out. Not sure if this has already been posted but the names for the attractions are as follows. Kobra, the new Disko coaster, Monkey Swinger, waveswinger, Tuk Tuk Turmoil Dodgems, dodgems, Jungle Bus, crazy bus and Temple of Mayhem, madhouse.

Love that post Craig, very funny and informative. I also loved that day, very fun trip! I for one will miss Beanoland greatly, it was definitely one of my favourite areas in the park and I remember loving it on my first visit to Chessington. As sad as I am that Beanoland is gone, I very much looking forward to the new area, because so far the plans look amazing!

Oh I love these updates, never fail to make me laugh! That obstacle course looks fun, bet I couldn't do it though!

That was great as always Craig, I look forward to seeing more of these little updates! To finish this comment I shall state that, Craig had no influence in me writing this post and that I did it under my own free will.

Great quotes there Craig, I had such a laugh reading them! That smile cam is awesome indeed, never fails to take the most ridiculous pictures possible! I wish I had it, shame I don't have enough money to buy a camera as awesome as yours! Keep the updates coming, love seeing what you guys got up to on the big TPR trips, hopefully I'll join you guys one day!

That made me laugh so hard! Glad to hear you and Brobee had a good day out, keep these awesome trip reports coming!

All I can say is WOW! It's about time Chessington got a new attraction and although it's not the coaster I was hoping for, a Disko looks like great fun, not to mention that theming in the plans looks great. I truely hope that Merlin can pull this one of, if they do, this will be one hell of a new land!

Awesome ending to the trip report! Made me laugh so hard! I think the girls of TPR should comment on my and Steven's pumping action, that ride needs to come with a sign saying guests may die from over pumping! You forgot to mention that we won at Fire Academy, thanks to me!

What an awesome day out! Thanks for sorting it out Craig. Great report, some of those captions made me laugh out loud!
