    Meat or fish?

    I love having fish when I eat out. But fish can be dodgy and I'm always wary. I've eaten out fish before and felt a bit dodgy the next day, then again another time I felt fab. I have also asked for fish to be taken back to the kitchen before as I knew it was dodgy. Just depends on the fish and...

    Tree/bush conundrum

    I have a bush in my garden that I used to trim regularly when I know I was entertaining guests. Alas, for a while now it has gone - like Nemesis - untamed and I should really get about to sprucing it back up ready for garden parties and the such.

    Worst Wait Time

    3.5 opening year at the end of the day so that my friend could ride. Constant breakdowns every 30 minutes or so and with a full queueline, it was horrific. The only moment that made it worth it was when we bought an ORP and the attendant said "Would you like to have it now or collect it at the...

    Most New Creds in a Year

    At the beginning of last year I had 80 creds and ended on exactly 200 (+120). I doubt I'll beat that for a while yet.

    SindiPark | Unknown | Gerstlauer Eurofighter

    I think this will be Morocco's first ever inverting rollercoaster. After hearing all about how the King of Morocco is trying to seriously vamp up tourism in the country and increase visitors, I knew it was only going to be time before we start seeing some theme park developments. I'm possibly...

    Alton Towers Scarefest 2013

    ToTT is and has always been the best maze at Alton each year for many years in my opinion. I'll always happily pay for it as opposed to the shorter and slightly disappointing other mazes.

    Most Creds in a Day

    CF rules state that a topic 3 months dead can be remade ;) 16 at Cedar Point in one day. Only missed out on Gemini's red side as it wasn't operating that day. Wildcat had closed about a fortnight before.

    Dr Pepper

    ^ I tried 'proper' root beer for the first time at Knoebels (just a sip). It was quite possibly the most vile drink I have ever had in my life - not to my taste at all! It puts the strange, unreadable cans of soft drink I once picked up from a Chinese depot once to shame ;) Dr. Pepper is...

    Favorite form of entertainment media?

    Films by a long shot. Then usually TV. Does endlessly browsing the internet and not actually do anything useful on it count? If so, I do that a lot too.

    Do you count kiddie coasters in your coaster count?

    Yep, of course I count them. And if I'm in a park with one, I'm going to nab it. And abduction of children is a viable option for certain coasters (Intamin's first ever coaster can not simply be passed up upon without at least trying to nab it... ;) )

    Dr Pepper

    I swear it used to taste better than it does now, maybe it's just me. Otherwise, it's just another drink. I'll have it every now and again, but I don't feel the need to have it.

    Do you basque in your own ambiance?

    It depends. On my own, I might accidentally catch a whiff of my own brand and be revolted and yet equally pleased. On public transport, I sometimes leave my trace, depart quickly and judge the workings of my gut by the reaction of those in the place I left my scent. I must admit, there's...

    Yorkshire Tripper VI Trip reports.

    It was ok in '09, just the park as a whole was very eugh which is probably why 4 years later I've still yet to return. The only thing that's making me want to go back is swiping the three creds if I'm honest. It has the potential to be good, but yeah, poor operations really hamper that.

    Yorkshire Tripper VI Trip reports.

    That quiz looked fab, been splitting my sides reading it - great job Ian! I'm gutted I missed this live (combined burden's of sorting out uni life and complete and utter lack of money) preventing me from coming :( Enjoying the trip reports and glad to hear 'Mingeland is still very...

    John Wardley Interview

    I think a B&M stand-up could easily be marketed in the UK as Shockwave I'd say is pretty much unknown to the general public. As to whether it'd be a good investment, I'd say it'd be something Varney would consider as it could easily be marketable, but it'd hardly bring anything special to the...

    First day of the week.

    It is Monday for me, but only as the modern working week has altered and skewed the traditional set-up and understanding of the construction of a week.

    Best way to take your phone with you on a coaster

    I don't even trust zipped pockets any more after somehow my phone came out of my zipped pocket on Colossus. I just put it in my bag or not take it at all if I'm not taking a bag to a park.
