Good trip report. I think the guy on the spinning mouse may be a enthusiast as you say because Shane Whiting who posts on Rideas operates that ride at Pleasurewood Hills so it might of been him. I remember Joyland as I used to go there as a kid. It's a great little park and the Snails and the Tubs in particular are my faves 8) Anyway we wanna see the Pleasure Beach pics as the Scenic there was my first ever coaster. Memories

Here's were I live although originally I am from Nottingham. Milton Keynes is a new city and about 30 years ago it was all just fields. We also have our very own themepark albeit Gullivers World lol. Still it's currently being extended and there gonna build a junior wooden coaster to add to the credit already there Here is the outside of the Xscape building. The city is getting larger all the time and new things are being built. It's all in a massive grid system like what most of you are used to in the States although we have many roundabouts too. Here is the Indoor skislope which is in the Xscape building. It also has a Gym, Multiplex cinima, Restaurants, Bars, Shops etc. They are currently extending it and building an Indoor skydiving centre. The first in Europe apparently.

Will almost certainly join you for a couple of parks on the trip. Should be good fun 8)

TBH though I can see why Komodo has 8 votes because A)It's not braked to death B) It has a normal type of lifthill and C) It doesn't have any loops or water splashes which in real life don't really happen apart from 1 case. I hope it wins

Yeah, That's what I mean about it being rough. You have to adopt the "Brace" position when going down those dips

I can't wait for this game although I need to buy it for BOTH Xbox 360 and PC (Clan match purposes). Still playing CoD:UO multiplayer to death on the PC though even though Battlefield 2 is taking more of my time now. If I may say so myself I'm a bit of a crackshot with the un-scoped sniper rifles About these type of games not being available in Germany, I'm aware that RTCW didn't come out on the Xbox over there as alot of German Friends on Xbox Live had to import it from other European countries.

I always thought the scenic at Great Yarmouth was the best scenic ANYWHERE but the one at Bakken looks better!! :shock:

I first went on that Tobogan ride at Great Yarmouth Plesure Beach about 15 years ago!!! I remember getting stuck right at the top of the vertical lift hill for a couple of minutes lol. There very rough but kind of fun in a way because it's so unique. More recently though I remember seeing it at a travelling fair in Sheffield about 4 years ago. EDIT. Nearly forgot to say but that video was great. Really well edited. Good job 8)

Large chips and battered sausage from the chip shop. Followed by a Cadbury's flake ice cream.

Yeah there's MANY great coasters there it's hard to decide. Looking forward to see what the next challenge will be

Excellent video. I thought the part where the ride Op just avoided death from the Pinfari coaster was hilarious.

^^^^^That coaster is very different but I like it 8)

Here's my entry. I havn't played this game for about 6 months so this was a good excuse to get back into it 8) I wanted a very traditional style coaster hence the reason that there's no additional lift hills or brakes. It just keeps on going till the station BTW I'm hopeless at coaster names Lumberjack.dat The file The first drop! Overview with stats Overview.

Cheers for that. I've now saved them in paint and the new file sizes are 95000 etc Anyway I shall be posting my entry.

Yes they are. I used Irfenview to resize them.

Sorry I know it's off topic but how do you get your images under 150000 bytes? I've resized them to 800 x 600 but there still 450000 bytes each!!

I already have the articulated train and it doesn't raise the excitement but it does bring me under the 8 intensity bracket. Also the water splash I refuse to use just beacuse I want it to be a classic woody with classic features 8)

I just need to try and sqeeze an extra .7 for excitement from my coaster. Talk about frustrating

Great trip report. Excellent to read after a long day at work 8) Smart cars are cool, My wife has a fortwo cabriolet which I get from DaimlerChrysler (The company I work for).

Football (Proper football ), Karting, and snowboarding. We're very lucky here in Milton Keynes as we have one of those indoor snozones. We currently have an indoor skydiving centre being built here too so I may just give that a go when it opens 8)

Just heard on the Radio here in the UK making it sound like a massive major disaster or something.

I LOVE KFC but Burger King just beats it. Actually thinking about it I may just go out now and buy a 3 peice variety meal and get ready for Big Brother Life changes so much when you have a young child

I go to Mcdonalds quite often simply because I live about 1 minute away from one But TBH I much prefer Burger King as the burgers and the bun also are much better quality and have more taste to them instead of the "cardboad" taste of Mcd's. Just my opinion though
