Fantasy Island (UK) Updates - GForce returns p5

Re: Fantasy Island (UK) Updates

Loving the Jubilee Odyssey repaint, looks so much less tacky now.
 
Re: Fantasy Island (UK) Updates

^ I thought the opposite tbh. Now it looks like a refreshers bar. The red was bold, angry and befitting of one of the UK's most famous coaster. Bear in mind that the sky above Skegness is not always going to be lovely blue like the images and yellow fades easily. Up side is the old ride has now gone; with the repaint and station mods it's not like the "Jubilee Odyssey" when it first opened. Fingers crossed it will be more appealing to potential buyers and the park will continue. I have a soft spot for FI.
 
Re: Fantasy Island (UK) Updates

Is that where the mouse coaster *spits* used to be? If so that's quite a big space.
 
Re: Fantasy Island (UK) Updates

Yeah, they'll have even more room if the rumours are true about them demolishing the old McDonalds building.
 
Re: Fantasy Island (UK) Updates

Is that the McDonald's with the gorgeous, piss-smelling, al fresco seating underneath the Millennium queue?
 
Re: Fantasy Island (UK) Updates

^ Nah it's the old drive through restaurant round the other side of the park.

Apparently Odyssey's station is being enclosed because they're installing heaters by the track to keep the wheels warm whilst it's sitting dormant.
 
Re: Fantasy Island (UK) Updates

As long as the Lotto stand stays I'll be happy. Once bought a ticket in the presence of Ian from CoasterForce and won a tenner.
 
Re: Fantasy Island (UK) Updates

I really hope it's a cred so someone will drive me to get the Vekomas at last.
 
Re: Fantasy Island (UK) Updates

I hope it's a cred as I still need Odyssey so will be going again at some point anyway.

I'm thinking the same because it's such a **** long way away, but I secretly love FI and, even more so, Bottons. I'm not too bothered about the two Vekomas but I always love Queen Bee, the inverted big apple. That's amazing.

Hopefully it won't be a cred, but if it is, hopefully FL and LWV will announce new creds so there's a reason to head to the north-east.
 
Re: Fantasy Island (UK) Updates

That's good news!
 
Re: Fantasy Island (UK) Updates

And they've already mentioned new rides ;)

I've always said that I'd love to see what becomes of this place if it was in the right hands, now time will tell....

Re: Fantasy Island (UK) Updates

Is fair circuits owning permanent parks a common occurrence in the UK and Europe? Because this seems pretty strange to me.
