    Ride to Happiness VS Kondaa - some thoughts

    Thanks Serena for Organising! Chessington was a lot of fun, thanks for the pack, I always appreciate them, It was raining when first handed out so I squirrelled mine away in my bag until later, but I do love them - and a nice souvenir of the day too!

    Favourite theme park entrance experience?

    Toverland does indeed have a lovely new entrance way! Hansa for me is pretty special for a moderate sized park ....the effort the park has gone to in the last decade to theme their entrance way into historic European facades is above and beyond..... also the floral clock and date arrangement -...

    Does virtual reality have a place within theme parks?

    Now! Heres the thing, I'm generally not the biggest fan of VR - especially used in Theme parks, and thats because I think it's lazy, when a theme park is meant to be about going to a place - and being in space - its a 'park' after all...... its in the name, and you wouldn't expect to go to a...

    Alton towers Scarefest 2021 - some questions

    So sort of annoyingly you have to buy a 4 maze package at Scarefest and can't buy scare maze tickets per maze! You also have to choose a slot and have 2 hours to complete all 4 mazes! Surprisingly the mazes start at 1pm - so one question is, to those who've been - are the mazes completely...
