    Most noteworthy park and coaster you haven’t done in your home country/state

    Flamingolsnd is the only major U.K. Park I’ve still to get to, was planning to go in 2019 but held off waiting for the new cred, as it doesn’t sound like a park worthy of repeat visits. Coaster specifically, maybe Hero as it’s been years since I last rode a violate so just to see if they are...

    CF Lives 2022 - What's Happening

    Thanks for the the update. As fab as the overseas lives have been, I think it’s a totally understandable position to take for this year with the ongoing uncertainty. The U.K. lives seem good, particularly Alton in March.

    Who is the best big park chain operator?

    Herschend gets my vote as they have donning really well with Dollywood and SDC, both having an excellent line up, operations, shows, theming and staff. The whole package. I think it will be interesting to see what they do with Kentucky Kingdom, hopefully it gets treated like a Dollywood and...

    Gröna Lund | Monster | B&M Invert | 2021

    Apparently Sweden’s public health authority are saying the current restrictions will be in effect for another year at least... this might become a 2022 Coaster.

    The best European Annual Pass

    I’d second the Bobbejaanland/ Slagharen/Belantis as the best passes for Parques Reunidos. I haven’t checked every single park, but most seem to offer the one time entry to the others, however the Madrid parks charge 3 times as much for the equivalent and Mirabilandia is about double. I’m...

    Your worst spite

    Not sure if it counts as a spite, but I booked a trip to KD to finally get round to riding Volcano which had been on my bucket list since the beginning of time. A couple of weeks after booking my flights and they announced its permanent closure! At least I got to see it in it’s semi dismantled...

    WTF Merlin?

    Thorpe is managed the way it is because at the end of the day Merlin is a business out to make money. Legoland 30 mins down the road does an excellent job bringing in the family money to Merlin. Chessington is another Merlin family park less than 30 mins away, so if Thorpe also went down the...

    Cocktails

    Strawberry Daiquiris are the best. Near version is boring, much better with crushed ice!

    Mopping up UK credits- Great Yarmouth, PWH, Oakwood, Brean, West Midlands and more

    When we were planning we hadn’t spoken about doing it as a cred Run, but having seen a couple of vlogs I thought it looked nice and I was not disappointed. Really glad we did t cred run it. Sure the rides are all kiddy coasters, but you can tell the park is well looked after, and between the...

    Mopping up UK credits- Great Yarmouth, PWH, Oakwood, Brean, West Midlands and more

    This was actually a really fab trip! I was in the area just last year with the cf live but between hearing the Schwarzkoft at PWH had reopened, a spite at PB, adults being allowed to Pettitts and a cheeky +1 decided there was more than enough to justify a repeat visit! First stop was Joyland...

    Your Wacky Worm Count.

    Does anyone rank their Wacky Worms? My favourite is the one at Southport, it dooms the same as all the others in the RCDB photos, but I swear it’s bigger! Had some decent airtime on the drop! The classification breakdown wasn’t as detailed as I hoped, but I went into classification breakdown...
