The towers are haunted. Hex has had many unexplained shutdowns. Also, Hex is based on a local legand. The tree it is based around can be found in the actrual village of Alton and if you ask around locals will probably give you directions. The park however recreated their own version of the tree in the parks grounds. Apparently they then found out about the real tree.

Just drop it or winch it back down.

Goes up and drops...

No, it's the start of the worlds tallest and steepest escalator.

I highly recommend you take his address, phone number and email address from that post or else he might get pretty angry if he gets hundreds of emails, letters and phone calls from people asking about the company and rides.

Um... Yes it does have an off season. In and around the winter months it is the off season. Sure, the park isn't closed however it has reduced opening hours, opening mainly on weekends/public holidays and the ride availability goes down.

To anyone that has ridden BM, what happens between the station and the lift hill? I heard a while back it would have a little preshow in there but I havn't heard anything of it.

They were removed for offseason maintance. It is perfectly safe and happenes every offseason. And if you don't like the park, why visit? You can see from the website their ride selection isn't massive. Or why not just pay per ride instead of getting a wristband? And go after 6pm and get wristbands half price.

I think it's good. The park is well run and has a good selection of rides and just because it doesn't have large rides doesn't mean it's boring. I have had many good trips there. The coasters are all pretty fun and the rides are great to go on with mates. If they get the Eurofighter it will seriously rock because it will bring more people to the park and then hopefully mean they will be able to get more big rides. And £19 for a wristband is only that during the middle of summer and to be honest it is well worth it. You get unlimited rides on anything, except the go carts, all day and with AI you aren't restricted to staying in the park. You can wonder off down the peir, go to some arcades, get fish and chips, walk down by the sea, go on the beach and then return to go on the rides again.

Last concert I saw was Trivium's last night in Britain end of concert secret gig at Islington Academy. They played under the name Ember and The Inferno's and came out wearing wigs and stuff. Was pretty damn amazing and was only made better by them playing a acustic set in the middle of the show. Can't wait to see them again, hopefully at Download. And the next gig I'm going to is Hard-Fi playing at Brixton. Saw them last time at a tiny tiny venue, shows how far they have come really in less than half a year. Can't wait to see them, will be very very cool.

Yeh, I own a record played. My dad has loads of old vinyls however I buy new ones. Since Christmas, when I first got the record player, I've been slowly building up my collection. It's just a shame that rock/metal vinyls are so hard to come by. My collection so far is: Iron Maiden - Death On The Road LP Hard-Fi - Stars Of CCTV LP The Darkness - One Way Ticket To Hell And Back LP Coldplay - X&Y LP Black Sabbath - Sabbath Bloody Sabbath LP Hard-Fi - Cash Machine 7" Hard-Fi - Limited Edition Signed Better Do Better 7" Hard-Fi - Limited Edition Signed Better Do Better Square 7" Roadrunner United - The All Star Sessions LP It's only a small collection but I'm slowly building it up.

The stops, which are infact blck breaks, won't be going anywhere. Without those it would go down from 5 trains ruining at once to two trains. It would impact capacity way to much to ever become a good change. And X could have been good, it's just it's budget got cut a hell of a lot so they had to do the best they could with what they had.

A retheme is on the cards for next year along with Flying Fish coming back. Currently we are led to beileve from a very reliable source that X will have its trains turned forwards and it will be rethemed to a lost mine train.
