  1. Is Saw 3 any good...? 3 people (in the UK) fainted in the cinema watching it. Link: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/6101704.stm
  2. Black Eye Peas are the worst group ever. How did they get their record contract.
  3. I work at ntl: as a Network Co-ordinator. I may finish at the end of Nov. I have a 3 bedroom house which I rent out via an Estate Agent, this gives me £750 a month, I can get a P/T Job for 6 months. This gives me more spare time to visit Theme Parks, etc.
  4. Great Dec's, Did you have some spooky lights and a Fog machine..? I like "Marcus the Carcus". excellent. No-one in the UK would dream of doing this to their gardens, a shame as it's all good fun. I sometimes wonder why I should of not been born in the UK and not the US, you guys have so much more fun with your Theme Parks, Halloween and Xmas.
  5. I would never do a SCAD, I don't go on "Freefalls" or "Shot n drops" either. I've been on MF, never go on TTD and KK, it's the speed and height. I'm not a fan of "LIM" coasters. "Stealth" and "Rita" are a no-no Anyone like the "Super Booster" and "Boosters", e.g. Blackpool BP or on Brighton Pier...?
  6. I love a good "Thunder n Lightning" storm, esp after a hot day, clears the air and it's nature's way of showing how powerful it can be. I had a good show at Cedar Point in July, I waited in "Mantis" station till it had stopped.
  7. I've never played "Halo", is it better than Killzone..? I bet this game does not run at 1080P like Ridge Racer 7 does on PS3. I'm not sure about getting a 360, I might get a "Revolution / Wii" and wait for the PS3 to come out in the UK. I was going to get a PS3 on "Import" from Lik-Sang, but Sony closed em down for being "bad sports", I'll have to fly to the USA to get one this month. I'll wear my "Lik-Sang" t-shirt with pride to any game shows I visit.
  8. Has anyone bought one of these screens in their house..? What are they like for picture quality as HD is only beginning in the UK. What do you want to be the standard format HD DD or Blue-ray..?
  9. Great pic's and a spooky one of "death". To celebrate a "death" is the best way to deal with the person/s who have left our world. Never hid your emotions and distance yourself from anyone. Use your time on Earth to the fullest and enjoy life. Life and Death is a celebration
  10. Nice pic's. I love Cedar Point, only been there once mind, all 16 hours worth in a day. Magnum, MF, Gemini, Mean Streak, Blue Streak and Raptor were running well. I plan to visit the park again in 2008 for 2 days Mavarick looks an amazing fun ride with it's double LIM launch, inversions and tunnel.
  11. Another "Arrow" goes to the Sky. Is it rougher than the corkscrew at Alton Towers..? nice photo's and Double Chin. RIP "Python"
  12. Lovely photo's, you have a great camera. What is the make and how many Mega Pixcels is it..? The colours and sharpness of the pictures are excellent Best to go to a Park when it opens and leave just before it gets packed. Post some more photo's on your next Park visit.

  14. I've only been to Walibi World and Plopsaland twice, De Effling, Bobbyjanland, Paulton's Park and Walibi Belgium once this year. Thorpe Park, Blackpool, Walibi World and Heide-Park last year. Not been to Alton Towers since 2002, I don't miss it I get withdraw feelings if I don't go on a coaster for months. I kick off next Season in March at Thorpe Park for my Birthday and in April visit "Oakwood" in Wales for "Megafobia", the only USA woodie in the UK.
  15. The Watercoaster looks amazing, out of this world Theming everywhere in the park. I have to go back next year. Shame the local people near the park always reject new rides, same problem as Alton Towers. Your never see a "Hyper" or "Floorless" coaster. This park is very beautiful, it seems like you have been transported to another world, it has a magical feeling to it. All the rides are good apart from the horrible "Woodie", it needs to be re-built with .
  16. Did you get a discount on the Entrance fee for the 29th
  17. Some lovely looking photo's I loved my time at Kings Island in 2000, All the coasters are excellent. I would of stayed on these 3 rides if they all had "walk-on"'s when I visited in July 00 "Vortex, Racer, and Beast. Def a "Togo" Death machine, I hope the OHR are secure for the loop. King Cobra gave a good ride, a touch rougher than "Mantis" mind. Give me "Racer, Vortex, FOF, SOB and Beast" over Alton Towers and Thorpe Park anyday , UK parks are rubbish compaired to your great USA ones.
  18. KI should take SOB down and have it rebuilt entwinging with it's father. Keep the lift hill n "loop", re-profile it as an out n back / twister within the woods The station can be located next to the "Beast", you can choose if you want to ride the Father or Son, the trains can leave the station at the same time.
  19. Great to hear some "Elivs" history gets saved. How far ( in miles) does the coaster have to be moved..? $25,000 is a bargin for a woodie, I would of bidded for it if I lived near-by. Put some "NAD" trains with full working headlights on it Let's hope the "vandals" do not decide to light a "fire" under the woodie, get it moved as soon as possible. A link to it's new home: http://www.carolinacrossroads.com/
  20. BPB should sell this ride complete, Only a few left in working order. A shame to see this "rare" ride being sold car by car. I wonder if they will do this to the "Whip" cars. BPB should donate both rides to "Paulton's Park" (UK), this way the UK will keep 2 "Classic" Flat Pre 1940 rides. What will BPB sell next, PMBO cars..? I will never forgive BPB if they scrap /sell the "Wild Mouse".
  21. The guy is so mad cos he can't ride the B/B Rumbler He could of got treated badly while working for the park and this is his way of getting back at it.
  22. The only Water Parks I have been to is "Slide n Splash" (25+ slides) in Portugal and Tower Park (14 slides) in Poole UK. I would love to try out the Water Parks in the USA sometime. That 8-lane Octopus ride looks amazing, it will be so much fun to race your friends down the slides. I recon the next big thing will be a "LIM" Woodie, you can create it on "No Limits".
  23. The Best Park's name is in Belgium called "Plopsaland" It's a very good park with a "Supersplash" and a 200ft "Starflyer" This park is nearer to me than driving to Blackpool Pleasure Beach. Only an hour's drive both sides from the Channel Tunnel. The best coaster name is "Dog Fart Coaster"
  24. I wonder if this section was where the train hit the "bump" and stopped: 2000: A section of the {Son Of Beast} wooden coaster, under construction at Paramount's Kings Island in Mason, Ohio, collapses in a wind storm. Nobody is hurt and the incident is not expected to delay the coaster's opening. I was on this in July 2000, yes it was rough but I enjoyed the ride esp the "loop" Any update on when this coaster will reopen..?
