Sorry to hear you can no longer make it @Ian @Matt SW @Rachel and @Screaming Coasters - we will wave an honourary glowstick each in your honour.
Unfortunately, have some more bad news. My manager has caught Covid, meaning that I now have to work until 9pm Monday - Friday this week. I was meant...
After visiting re-visiting Europa Park, Walibi Belgium and EnergyLandia recently, here's how the top 20 looks now. Note that a certain new Intamin surprisingly did not make the cut, but a certain GCI that never wowed me previously has. You really can't predict these things!

This is the list of attendees I have for each day. If this is not correct, if I have missed you off, if you are bringing others or if you are no longer attending please do let me know.

Another hilarious trip report @Nitefly! You comparing EL to Limp Bizkits cover of Faith had me in stitches. And I'm glad you found a Senzu Bean in the form of a Snickers ice cream!
Oh how I empathised with your green light situation. The first time we did a CF live to Poland, we stayed in a...
Hi @Screaming Coasters
You have to pay for every maze. Thorpe mazes are £10 each.
If you wish to go off to do Platform 15 then by all means do! I missed it off the itinerary as it's the weakest one. I think more time for the scare zones / shows / night rides as a group is the priority.
When I was getting stuck in re-evaluating my top coasters, I realised that there are loads of coasters I would rather ride than Saw. Saw has a lot of sentimental value for me and is one of my most ridden coasters; but I don't think that's enough for it to make the cut anymore.
The thing I look...
Big news guys!
After careful thought, Saw is no longer in my top 10. Or even my top 20! See, I'm about to visit some exciting European parks over the next few weeks, and decided to get my mess of a Top 20 in order beforehand. This way I can compare and contrast after the trips!
As much as I...
No, I rode Rush twice this weekend! I've always got time for Rush! (Both the band and the ride)
I was just pointing out that the majority of rides I skip at Thorpe are flats, I don't skip all of the flats :)
Since I now live down the road from Thorpe Park and have visited 4 times this year already, I can finally crown it my home park (in your face, Brean!)
It's the flats I tend to avoid at Thorpe. I never rode Slammer. I've never ridden Vortex or Zodiac either - and I can't remember the last time I...
Oooh, exciting stuff!
I would hazard a guess that Thorpe may get a B+M as Chessington are getting one. Hopefully it will be a nice big hyper coaster. Imagine how amazing that would be 😍
How on EARTH has no one else said the main park theme to EnergyLandia?!
*sings* "EnergyLandiaaa, EnergyLandiaaa"
To those who've heard it, good luck getting that out of your head now! I last visited in 2019 and it's still stuck in my head.
I would also say all the Efteling music, especially...
Ohhh Alex, if Geisterschloss at Europa Park 'encapsulates the personality of the park' you're going to be so crestfallen when we ride Haunted Mansion! 😅 The ghost train at Europa is nothing but a Disney rip off, scene for scene. Which tbh, does actually capture the personality of some of Europas...
Oooh, I've been looking forward to this:
1. Hakugei. The most forceful airtime I've ever experienced is on that double-up. It left my thighs covered in bruises! The inversions on this coaster are absolutely flawless. An amazing, intense ride.
2. Thunder Dolphin. Fun fact, Thunder Dolphin has...
Okay! It's itinerary time!
Tulleys ShocktoberFest
I have a 5pm ticket for Tulleys. As the Live attendance numbers for this evening are smaller, it will be a fairly casual warm up event. I will send attendees my number, message me when you arrive and lets meet up and do mazes. If you are...
It was worth us going to WMSP just for you to write this hilarious trip report @Slamming Coastercore 😂
How you turned such a bad day into such a great read is truly a feat in itself!
For what it's worth:
1. I liked the cockroach! He was the last thing I expected to see in a cuddly critters...
