I woke up early on Saturday awaiting Jordan to arrive as I ate my breakfast, he arrived and we both watched my neighbour put grass in a skip. Then Sue and Mike arrived and we all cruised in the Saab towards Cleethorpes with fab cheese playing!
First stop:
MouseAT had already been there for around 90 when we rocked up.
First up was:
First ride was ok for Boomerang, not too rough and it had a decent drop.
Catch car!
There was a very weird looking slide, which we rode later:
Next up however was Mini Mine Train, a Vekoma Junior
It was pretty rubbish compared to other Vekoma Juniors I had been on!
Next up was Ghost train thing that had safari jeeps for some reason and Chessington torches!
Next up we did the Gravitron, my first Gravitron! I loved it! Was so fun!
The Gravitron was a really really good laugh! One of the best bits of the trip!
Next up we did the shot tower, Hyper Blast. It was hilarious because despite knowing it was a shot tower it still took Jordan by surprise! "What the **** is this?" I believe he said.
The shot tower was small but had great airtime
We then did The Galleon, an old small pirate ship that was ok.
After that we did:
Volare restraints are vile but the ride was ok! It had a cycle in which it went both forwards and backwards!
We then rode Century 2000
It was very good fun!
Then we watched a bit of the Sea lion show
We left part way through to meet Jared and Charlotte and then rode the Boomerang, my third time of the day, by now it was pretty vile.
It was then time for a race so we did the astro slide, but we could not all race at once because apparently the park had run out of polish for three of the slides! For the first time ever I beat Jordan on a slide. Smugface.
We then did the Carousel, the horses had no tails and mine had BNP engraved into it...
It was ok.
We then did the Paratrooper, which brought back memories of Butlins and Wicksteed Park!
We then did the weird water slide thing, which was good!
There were loads of signs for Thorpe Park along the roads, here is why:
We then did [strike]Rip of Bubbleworks[/strike] Sweet Adventure
The sign suggests that the staff were meant to be made out of sweets, which is strange because they work in a sweets factory selling sweets for humans to eat.
Some before this Sue was thinking about going on the Booster but was glad she didn't when MouseAT, Jordan and Charlotte became stuck at the top for a while. The ride engineer slowly made his way over and then came down.

From a very good twitter account, follow!
We also saw some pigs
We left the park and went over the road to a chippy, next door was a newsagent with some breaking news!
We drove to Dunes Leisure in Mablethorpe to ride Miner Mike!
I climbed into the front and we all went round for a while!
Beach!!
We then went to the wrong guest to be greeted by a confused looking Chinese lady before going to the correct guest house and checking in. Darren and Tom then arrived and we went to get some grub!
We found Weatherspoons and I had.... can you guess? Heres a clue my Thorpe report
Nom! Here is my chicken tika as it came.
Here I am pouring my chicken tika onto the rice. I ate the chicken tika on the rice but also dipped my naan bread in the sauce. The popodoms were vile.
It was then time to head back to the guest house, where we played A to Z goon games in MouseAT's room including: Intamin, B&M and Schwarzkopf coasters as well as parks with wild mouses, UK parks and mine suggestion, parks with a log flume that isn't called log flume. There was many in jokes including quaffle and axe wound!! :lol:
That was the first day!
