    Alton Towers CF Live - Sunday 11 May

    Looking forward to it! 😁

    WTF Merlin?

    Subbing Steeplechase for Icon... I bet the mood was mutinous. Like subbing ERT on Nemesis for Octonauts.

    Support UK Theme Parks this year...

    Businesses do engage in anticompetitive practices - it's certainly not a lizardman level of conspiracy theory, but there are other possible explanations so I wouldn't say I fully endorse the idea, it was just a thought that occurred to me. Management could be overestimating how price sensitive...

    Support UK Theme Parks this year...

    I suspect this situation suits Merlin quite well, they're in such a dominant position that they can effectively set the prices of their competition. You'd think given the recent inflationary cycle we went through that Merlin's prices would be a good bit higher than they were, from what I can...

    Alton Towers CF Live 2025 - Choose The Date

    I've been able to rearrange some things and I can now do 10th/11th May. 😁

    Alton Towers CF Live 2025 - Choose The Date

    I can manage the 14th June but not any of the other dates. Crossing my fingers that it works out but I hope everyone has a great time if it doesn’t. 😁

    CF Live - Alton Towers - NO LONGER HAPPENING ON MARCH 29

    If a rescheduled date was one I was available for I would be very interested in attending! Edit: Although looking at my calendar for the next 2 months it’s not got a whole lot of free Saturdays. Definitely don’t rearrange around me!

    Oakwood closes its doors, cites financial difficulties

    I had hoped to ride Megafobia one day, sad that I'll never manage it. The biggest issue was always getting there, even driving there from the south east is a long journey, trying to do it by public transport for that sparse a line-up never made sense. How likely would ride relocations be? Could...

    CF Live - Alton Towers - NO LONGER HAPPENING ON MARCH 29

    Sadly I won't be able to make this one, hope everyone has a blast!

    Thorpe Park | Hyperia | Mack Hyper Coaster | 2024

    Borderline pointless anyway, once the viewing area was dropped from the plans it made no sense to have it.

    CF Lives 2025

    The Walibi Holland/Toverland in September option overlaps with the ECC’s Walibi Holland trip. That means that at least on the Saturday we could do ERT with the ECC. 😁

    "Maya the Bee My Valentine" - Plopsaland Live - 15th February 2025

    "All of the roller coasters are closed." Nightmarish words for a group of enthusiasts to be confronted with at the gates of a park - and pretty much exactly what happened to the group of 10 goons who gathered at Plopsaland De Panne for a CF Live. We did our best to keep our spirits up, a...

    "Maya the Bee My Valentine" - Plopsaland Live - 15th February 2025

    I can confirm I'm coming but my friend who I mentioned previously can no longer make it.

    "Maya the Bee My Valentine" - Plopsaland Live - 15th February 2025

    There's always Het Bos van Plop. Besides, weather forecasts a week out aren't the most accurate, we'll just have to wait and see.

    If you could time travel, which business decisions would you reverse?

    Indeed, the path where it's still an Arrow hyper with better profiling assumes there was a realistic way of that happening. How did they get it so wrong?

    If you could time travel, which business decisions would you reverse?

    What if Blackpool didn't build the Big One? I personally don't rate the Big One, it lost the height record very quickly and it fails to do anything notable after the drop. There are 2 different viable paths from what I can see: 1. Still build an Arrow hyper, but profile the track to actually...

    Defunct attractions where you differ from the common posthumous consensus

    Yeah, just a travelling coaster in a tent, but I loved it as a boy. The closest I could get to riding Space Mountain at the time. Maybe if Project Horizon gets resurrected it will fill that indoor niche.

    Universal UK theme park in Bedford

    So far there don’t seem to have been any major issues holding it up. I think with the growth agenda of the current government it would be politically damaging for the project to fail due to bureaucracy. If I were a betting man I would probably have a flutter on it ultimately getting built.

    You love the ride and rank it super high but you criticise it more than you praise it

    I think for rides that you rank highly but not at the very top you're inevitably going to focus on the flaws precisely because you're ranking them. This is especially the case for a ride that a bunch of other people think ranks better, you're going to discuss it and have your list of reasons it...

    Potential Fast and Furious replacement for Hollywood Rip Ride Rockit?

    RIP Ride Rockit, I will always remember your surprisingly good secret song list (How Heavy This Axe by the Sword? Excellent!) and how you came dangerously close to breaking my ribs with your weird restraints. You will not be missed. Although a modern attempt at the concept with a good...
