14th June is the only day I’ve currently not got other plans.

It goes without saying that those who consider themselves "influencers" should use their platform to promote and encourage. I hate the term "influencer", but I'm proud that CF plays a part in this as a "reporter" with park visits, Lives and attending events and press invites. There's a also a...

Really weird feelings about this news. I think Oakwood has been a strong contender for closure for a while, but part of me thought it’s captive market on ten far side of Wales, alongside the reputation of Megafobia and nostalgia would’ve keep it bobbing along. My last visit was about 8-10 years...

Fantastic footage. Talk about going out in style. Fitting.

Most of those dates are no good for me 😂 I’m moving at the end of March/start of April. I’m housesitting all of the summer holidays (writing off late July and August). Most likely Orlando in mid-November. Maybe Toverland and WH in late Sept. That said, I don’t expect Lives to be build around my...

I came here to post this. Universal will attract new people to the hobby, and encourage goons from wider afield to visit for theme park trips. It could also encourage competition with others parks heavily investing. The top ranked and visited parks have nothing to worry about. That’s the dream...

It’s unlikely. The first day is usually running around to the reveals and covering the bigger stuff on the floor. IAAPA does a Show Daily newsletter that’s typically available on their website the morning after each day. It might be covered in that or on the IAAPA socials.

Gutted not to be there this year. Love a good sheet pulling reveal. Although looks a bit underwhelming from what I’ve seen so far…but I’m only telling myself that to feel better.

This is like AI has written something just for me! I’ve lived in southern Hampshire all my life, visiting Paultons frequently since it opened in the early 80s. I now live on the edge of the New Forest, and I’m lucky enough to have explored it throughly on cycle and though my work on the...

Now that’s what I call theme parking! What a brilliant day it was floating between people having goony, light-hearted chats and getting to know one another. There were times when it could have been 2007-ish again (except with Swarm, Hyperia, less hair, bigger stomach etc etc) with the perfect...

I’m also contactable - 07787 573565 - if needed. Bear in mind I won’t be there until 10:30-ish

Just noticed the meet-up time. Seeing as I’m picking Chris up at 09:15, no chance of making it on time! Will message somebody when we’re in and wait by the exit of whatever ride you’re on :)

Not long now! I have a code for 25% from a cereal packet if somebody wants it. Message me.

Oddly enough, Hixee and I joked about grabbing some and giving it away on CF. But we thought better than picking rubbish off the floor!
