Mock doesn't rhyme with Mack

Looks like quite a big space! Excited to see what they change about Vilda Musen too, and hopefully they can keep growing over the road once this is all sorted. P.s. Don't forget to remove the "&igsh" and everything after it from Instagram links if you want to keep your profile semi-private!

Given how close Thorpe and Chessington are, I'm still surprised that Merlin haven't tried to combine them in some way. Something like stay at one of the resort hotels and get a day at each park, with a shuttle bus between them. Or even just a normal (free) shuttle bus so the family can stay at...

I know you mean million, but i can totally see the project manager giving them a crisp $100 note, a stiff pat on the back, and a farewell "I expect the change back"

Wasn't the parking charge initially brought in to cover the cost of that bypass? Then it quietly got dropped while the parking cost went up and up

I think this highlights the issues with broad categorisation of people's struggles. "Difficulty with crowds" covers so many possibilities that it's no wonder so many people 'qualify'; there's a huge difference between someone with anxiety that doesn't like being stuck in the middle of large...

I wonder where they'll put the market stalls? Went to Fantasy Island in 2023 and was greeted by a man threatening to beat up the person selling tickets because they were charging them full price. I can see the effort that's been put in, but it's still a sketchy place that doesn't inspire much...

Pleasurewood Hills is tidying and polishing as we speak, "Just in case those nice Americans want a look round"

Herschend has acquired Silverwood, though there isn't a date of completion yet. https://www.hfecorp.com/whats-new/herschend-to-acquire-silverwood/

C'mon, we can laugh at PETA being complete wastes of space that bring nothing of value to the world, and who arguably work against their own goals by being so provocative and asinine, without taking cheap shots at an already marginalised community that's being attacked more and more everyday...

To infinity and beyond! No, wait, wrong franchise.

It's a shame they're not keeping it simple with Universal Studios Britain, especially with the transport infrastructure they're proposing. I'd love to visit the USB hub

Insane at Gröna Lund, I just refuse to put myself through it! I was intrigued before we went, then I stood and watched a few cycles and realised it's called insane because you have to be to ride it.

Seems derailment is part of the SOPs at Mount Olympus 🤣🤣 https://www.reddit.com/r/rollercoasters/comments/1f1v6a6/apparently_zeus_derailed_and_reopened_immediately/

Yes? It's just a jagged cut, not that hard to clean and smooth down, then weld together with a little patch to cover the lost material. Probably a lot cheaper than manufacturing whole new sections.
