    What Do You Carry Around a Coaster Park?

    Probably A. I normally bring a small backpack and tend to carry the same stuff I do in my handbag plus a few extras. So phone, purse, camera, keys, water, headache tablets, makeup, sunglasses, suncream (if its sunny) etc.

    Kent, England | The London Resort | Entertainment Complex

    The story is doing the rounds again, it was trending on twitter earlier as "UK Disneyland", lol just no. It's really frustrating that people still believe that this might happen.

    Do You Judge Your Home Park(s) Differently?

    I consider Thorpe to be my home park and I don't think I do judge it differently in all honesty. Although the operations and atmosphere can be a bit crap sometimes I do genuinely think it's a good park with a varied ride selection. I guess i'm probably a bit more optimistic when things are being...

    Sweden just gives so many reasons to keep going back, I love it! This will be an interesting one to follow the construction of.

    Best darkride coasters

    I wouldn't class a coaster that is mostly outside as a dark ride coaster. It may have an indoor section, but to be considered as a dark ride then I would say the entire thing needs to be inside in a dark ride setting (so like the indoor coaster at Toverland still wouldn't count for example)...

    Top Non-Coaster Rides

    Tower of Terror @ Hollywood Studios Test Track @ Epcot Dinosaur @ Animal Kingdom Transformers @ USF HP & The Forbidden Journey @ IOA Hex @ Alton Towers Droomvlucht @ Efteling Mostly Disney and Universal but they really do "other" rides better than most. Also I just generally love drop towers...

    "Now Showing"

    A couple that i've seen recently..... La La Land Thought I was gonna hate this after the first song but no it was brilliant. Even though it was a musical I felt like the music complimented it really well and wasn't like in your face breaking into song during a conversation style. Ryan Gosling...

    What coaster (or coaster type) shouldn't exist, in your opinion?

    Screaming Squirrels and Intamin Zacspins. To me, they don't even really feel like coasters and I don't see any redeeming or enjoyable factors about them. SLC's are bad but at least they feel coaster-ish.

    Ride Related Dreams You've Had

    I've also had a Stealth horror dream, I dreamt that I was on the ride and the restraints failed so when it hit the brakes I went flying out. Woke up right at that moment. That one stands out in particular, can't remember any more but probably dream of them all the time.

    Rides That Really Surprised You

    I agree with jayjay about Sky Scream, it looked like something I was going to hate but once I was on it I actually really enjoyed it. Odd but in a fab kind of way. Shock at Rainbow Magicland, perhaps because I hadn't really heard much about it and everything else at the park was so mediocre, but...

    Most intense coaster

    I found a couple of the B&M's in Florida to be a bit much on my recent trip, most notably Kumba and Montu. Wildfire also messed me up a bit last summer, though that may have been the ERT mixed with tiredness!

    Toverland | Fenix | B&M Wing Coaster

    Oooh perhaps Toverland were watching our twitter chat last night and thought they'd surprise us all with a nice little announcement today ;) What a great addition for the park though, the B&M wing coasters are the perfect example of something that's fun and thrilling but not too intense...
