Blackpool Pleasure Beach Gallery

[Swoosh]

I have posted the first of a couple of galleries of European parks my brother has visited while studying abroad in Wales this semester. Check out the photos of Blackpool Pleasure Beach at MiG.

 

Sounded like he had a pretty good time, looks like a fun (yet cramped) park.

 

Couple of previews posted below, for the rest of the photos click here:

BPB does feel like a US seaside Park with it's many rides and attractions.

 

Lovely to see the "Wild Mouse" giving out "Bruised Ribs" to it's riders. Did your Brother go on it..?

 

Nice Pic of the PMBO, Infusion and BD in 1. Can't wait to re-visit the park later this year and grab some photo's of BD's new paintwork.

Yes he rode all of the rides there. He didn't mention any rough rides from the Wild Mouse, but then again you have to remember we have Timber Wolf at our homepark, so we're used to rough rides.

 

I really like that photo too of PMBO, Infusion and BD in it. I thought that was pretty sweet

No offense dude, but half your posts here are just about spamming your site with your updates, and you don't even bother to post any of the photos here.

 

That's really freaking LAME!

 

At least when I go spread the word about our updates to other sites I'll "contribute" something by posting some photos, information, and a partial update.

 

Here's a good example:

See what I'm talking about?

 

I'm doing the same thing as you, posting about one of our updates to another site, but it's not so spammy and annoying as you just posting a sentence and a link.

 

I also find you'll probably get MORE traffic by posting a preview. It's almost like a movie trailer to what your update is all about.

 

So like I said, don't take offense to this, because I'm just trying to help you, and I'm all for people posting information that's on their site or other sites, but if ALL you're going to do is post a sentence and a link most of the time, well, please don't, because I find that very rude and annoying.

 

Hope you understand where I'm coming from.

Honestly I just didn't want to suck up the bandwidth, but if that is what you want me to do I can post a picture or two. It's not like I am trying to be spammy -- I was actually trying to be considerate.

^ Like I said, don't take offense to what I said, just letting you know. But IMO, posting some photos and making a contribution is considerate, post a link after link is not.

I know for me, the first time I clicked on this topic and saw nothing but a link I just hit the back button. It just looked like you were screaming "come visit my site!". Had I seen a few photos that piqued my interest like the ones you've now posted I'd have probably taken a look.

I really like the colors on their new coaster. I wish we can paint the Wild Thing at Valleyfair something like that, that'll be awesome. I think the coaster that deserves to be painted green and light green is Raptor of Cedar Point.

The two tone blue color scheme of Infusion is pretty -- but it still doesn't hide the fact it is a SLC
