    Rides that still genuinely scare you...

    Oblivion. Stealth. Drop Towers. Anything with prolonged hangtime. And I agree about the big body slides at waterparks, I won't go near them.

    Parks Ranked by Company

    Merlin Alton Towers - Good selection of coasters and family rides and I just love the atmosphere Thorpe Park - Another good selection of coasters but the atmosphere is lacking and it can be a bit bland sometimes Chessington - I've got a soft spot for it and I love Dragons Fury and Vampire...

    Foods you won't eat

    Currents / Dates / Raisins etc. - Disgusting! I don't eat any fruit to be fair apart from Bananas and even then they have to be at exactly the right state of ripeness. Its not even the taste that bothers me, I hate the texture of fruit in my mouth. Prawns, Olives, Couscous, Beetroot. That's...

    Wonderful Copenhagen - April 2016

    Great report (although I tried to skip through the ride descriptions as i'm going next month and didn't want to spoil anything for myself :lol: ) Some fantastic photos too, really got me excited for my trip, Tivoli looks so stunning!

    Phantasialand | Taron | Intamin launched

    Looking good, I love how compact it is with the theming, cannot wait to get to Phantasialand and ride this.

    SeaWorld Orlando | Mako | B&M Hyper Coaster

    I really like the twisty bits at the end, with the netting, it really seems to speed round those turns. This looks so good, so jealous of anyone going to Orlando this year, its such a good addition to the coaster selection.

    Rollercoaster or Roller Coaster

    I think it looks better as one word and that's the way I normally write it.

    Your On-Site Hotel Count?

    Sequoia Lodge @ DLP is the only one for me. The room was nice enough but nothing special. I guess your paying for the convenience of being right on site and things like early entry. I'll be adding Hotel Collosseo at Europa Park in June. I suppose if you can get a good deal including park...

    You can only ride one manufacturer's coaster.

    B&M, as others have said, for the consistency. Intamin is just a little bit too hit and miss.

    Blackpool Pleasure Beach March 2016 Trip Reports

    Thank you to everyone for another fabulous weekend and thank you to Ian for organising the day and for the stick of rock :) I'd been to Blackpool once before on a really quiet day so luckily had all the creds, if I hadn't i'd of had some serious cred anxiety as the place was a lot busier than...

    Guardians of the Galaxy retheme for Tower of Terror

    TOT is the perfect mix of theming and a brilliant ride experience. I really hope this isn't true, the ride just doesn't need it, its fine the way it is.

    Nearest cred that you HAVEN'T ridden?

    The Big Apple at Old MacDonald's farm. Every year I keep meaning to go there....hopefully it will actually happen this year!

    Glasses on coasters?!

    I bought my glasses strap at a sports shop, it was only a couple of quid and keeps my glasses pretty tight on my face for riding coasters. Works for inversions, launches, all sorts of coasters really, I've never felt like they were going to fall off.
