Cheers for that, @Niles.
True. Do you remember the survey a couple of years ago, where they asked about other themes, such as Jungle, Knights etc? Personally, I would still like a Pirate, Jungle or Castle theme to come to the park. We'll have to see whether footers appear on the Go-Karts or Log Flume site first - whichever site it isn't could possibly be a different themed area (although it'd be unusual to clear space for two themed areas at once).
Dream
GCI woodie. Traditional and full length. Even in a dream scenario I can't imagine something as big as Troy or Wodan, but I'd like something similar to Heidi.
Omni-mover dark ride. Some sort of Viking expedition out into the snow. The finale could be a huge feast room.
Family boat ride. A whimsical journey, something similar to Épidemaïs Croisières at Parc Asterix - perhaps called "Vikings of the New Forest". Mostly outdoors, but weaving in and out of caves and tunnels. Alternatively, an entirely-indoor boat ride - a small, Viking version of Pirates of the Caribbean. With two family-friendly dark rides, Paultons could have the best Christmas event.
Huss Breakdance. I must admit I do normally skip the flat rides at a park that has lots of coasters, but a Breakdance is one I used to enjoy and don't get to ride much nowadays. Would also like a giant Pirate Ship, but I don't know if anyone still makes them, and like "Troy", it's a bit hard to imagine at Paultons.
Realistic/Expected
Small GCI hybrid. One of their "Compact Coasters" with an inversion.
Mack SuperSplash. Something simple that has a small circuit and makes a splash, like the one at Plopsaland.
I don't really think Paultons needs any more flat rides, but I can see them getting a few relatively minor ones like (as others have said) the Zamperla Nebulaz, Magic Bikes or Air Race.
