A simple thread just to say what you are drinking right now, and how merry you feel and include your drunken ramblings if you so desire And I bet, in my drunken betting, it will take 5 mis for this thread to be locked, for no real reason MOD EDIT by larrygator: Mr Fish - you have to understand that many members on the site are underage, so if management decides to lock the thread it will not be for "no reason". There is a discernable difference between enjoying an adult beverage and drinking too many adult beverages.

davethefish replied to macca_boy69's topic in Random, Random, Random
I know one, herbs! Americans say it without the h, silly people MOD EDIT by larrygator: even though this is in the Random Fourm let's keep this thread limited to park/coasters, versus common words that have two pronunciations. -

Whats The Weather Like Where You Live?

The start of the British Summer is approaching, all blue skies and sunshine! (give it two weeks, when the British Summer is supposed to start, and we'll have 4 months solid rain, like the past few years) -
I got a sandwich, two cans of relentless and a pork gala pie (although the self service machine was a bit busted so I got the pie for free, a saving of 50p!)

Is anyone on TPR a Railfan? (Train Watcher)
davethefish replied to kalvin's topic in Random, Random, Random
I'm not really a rail fan, but I do ride the trains a lot. The most common one I ride is a Virgin Pendolino, which is just a 1000ft Penis Extension for Richard Branson Look at it! It makes a man feel inadequate walking next to one I still don't understand train spotting though, where you stand at the end of the platforms and write down the numbers of the trains. I'm not trying to belittle anyone here, but I was wondering if anyone could tell me what the deal with that was, and what do you do with the numebrs when you have the full set? -
It's a Peltier Motor, run current one way, goes cold, run current the other, goes hot!

davethefish replied to StealthFan's topic in Photo Trip Report Archive

All wrong! Hint: It lives in your kitchen draw, and chef's couldn't live without one, although this one is old...

Favorite Coaster Moment
davethefish replied to Six Flags Enthuseast's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Taking my girlfriend for her first EVER rollercoaster I thought I'd break her in nicely, do a gentle ride. So I took her on Nemesis at Alton Towers Nice and gentle Needles to say, she loved it, although her faces of fear before hand will always be something special -
For my trip today, and the fact that I was in the south of the country, I decided to hit Brighton Pier. A seaside town is not complete without a big ole' Victorian pier, and Brighton has rather a large one (to say the least) The pier has 2 arcades, 600,000 doughnut stalls, 12 trillion (scary, large) Seagulls, and a small fairground type park at the end of it, with 2 rollercoasters, a waltzer, a big dropy/swingy thing, a bouncy/spiny thing, a haunted house, bumber cars and another spiny thing, and a log flume. Oh yeah, a Merry-go-round and a Helter Skelter (both closed, one half dismantled) The pier runs on a token based ride admission system, with some rides taking more tokens than others. Today they were running 30 tokens for £20, which is good because the rides take a few tokens! (plus the arcade does zap your cash as well, be aware! or just don't take girlfriends who love arcades:P) A nice bright, shiny morning! But this being England, Don't trust what you see.. Great name for a shop, have to stop there next time I go there, just to have a Grindlestonker's special There it is, hiding in the distance! See what I mean about the weather... The glorious main entrance. Before going in, we did have some chips from the chippie, and a GIANT gherkin, but the wind stole the gherkin from us, blowing the tray off the edge of the pier and condemning the pickle to the briny deep... That made little Doodles sad That machine is DANGEROUS! Probably spent over £100 on that type of game over the years! Damn you pacman/puzzlebobble coin dropping machine thing with its pretty screen and lights and sounds... I'm such a sucker... But strangely I am still yet to spend more than a pound on this game... Air hockey? A race? chance to win tickets? GET IN THERE! But the machine was broken, even though I put my money in, I didn't get a go, soo... WATCH DOODLES GO!! GO DOODLES! (number 2) That game was hard to play.. She lost... Don't Eat Yellow Snow, Or play a game with it in either... Cheapskates! Euro's in the machine! Anyways, time to move onto the THRILL ZONE!! Galaxia, an up and down bouncy spiny ride that plays rock n roll! Colourful shiny lights, loud music.. Damn they got me a again!! wooo shiny Doodles either looks scared, or hungry. Either way, fear is involved somewhere! That ride was pleasantly fun, in a flat ride bouncy up and down spin round with flashy lights and music way. Next are the Bumper Cars! (Or Dodgems, choose your name as you see fit) Meep Meep. Doodles got stuck in reverse, little did she know all you had to do was turn the wheel a little bit more... Needles to say I one that one! (shhh doodles...) No prizes for guessing the name, or type of this coaster! Scary... Remember, don't leave your legs or arms behind! Always take them with you if they fall off. The flume type thing, but it was too cold to go on it today, maybe in the summer! The big droppy/swingy thing! It scared me, it wobbled a lot, and it was a fiver per person, so too expensive to ride (that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it!) Next is the Turbo Coaster! I believe you guys call these things 'death machines'? It sure hurt my shoulders! First inversion credit of the year! Death Machine to Doodles hair! Woah, I never knew my mum was a model! (ok, thats evil..) That dude did well, lasted a whole 18 seconds! No idea how long I would last, I'll try next time! Ok, we ran out of credits to go on this ride... WIDEBOY BENCH - THE RIDE! There wasn't even a queue or anything We did a side-trip to the Sealife centre, after finding a 2-4-1 voucher in a magazine we found, I'll post those later! Brighton pier is a good, fun place to go with a few mates, it even has 3 bars on it!
