    How many different number 1s have you had?

    Hmmmmm, earliest I remember loving roller coasters would be... 1. Dragon, Legoland Windsor (1998) - I was very excited by the construction of the Legoland Castle during 1997 and when a roller coaster was attached to it at the beginning of 1998 I fell in love. The Dragon at Legoland, and by...

    Disneyland Shanghai | Tron Coaster | Vekoma motorbike

    How is it clever? Anyone not on the front row will see the wheels of the bike infront go bright orange :lol: Looks better than the other vid, but is still sadly lacking in racing :( Other than that, it looks stunning!

    Oasis VS Blur

    Oasis are better technically, but are whiny and lack emotion. Music by numbers if you will. Damon isn't a great singer*, by anyone's definition of the word but their sound and style make them a much better band to play and listen to. *That's not saying he can't sing, because he can...

    Favourite floor covering

    I suppose stone flagging would work in the kitchen/pantry if your house was decadent enough.

    Favourite floor covering

    It depends. Horses for courses, etc. The hallway should be laminated or wooden, as should the dining room. Living room thinner carpet or laminated/wooden with large square rug centrepiece. Kitchen and bathroom should be glossed tiles. Staircase and upstairs landing should be thin/medium...

    Thorpe Park | Derren Brown's Ghost Train | VR Attraction

    Re: Derren Brown's Ghost Train (WC16) | Thorpe Park | May 2 Yup. You can also take off your specs and adjust the focus as long as your eyesight isn't stupidly **** up. And for once you're not that weird Joey. One of the most common reasons people don't like wearing prescription...

    Shanghai, China | Shanghai Disneyland | Theme Park

    Yeah, the bit where the ride randomly turns orange for a couple of seconds all so you can see orange wheels in a mirror is turd too. I'm talking about the bit from 1:19 to 1:22 where a screen shows you racing and then the orange bike crashes and explodes. Those couple of seconds are...

    Shanghai, China | Shanghai Disneyland | Theme Park

    That orange bike at the end of the ride should be appearing pretty much all the time racing you. After all, the whole point of the bikes is a battle to the death! Don't get me wrong, the lights and layout look really cool, but it has completely missed the point.

    Shanghai, China | Shanghai Disneyland | Theme Park

    Apparently I'm the only one who is really really disappointed by the Tron coaster? Maybe Joey will agree with me for once, because the narrative of this thing (apart from 2 seconds approaching the brake run) is totally not Tron light bikes. :(

    Parks with best looking websites

    Is the purpose of a theme park website specifically not to provide you with: how to get there, opening times, ticket prices, overview of rides & attractions, food & accommodation? Maybe a map? Everything else is a bonus, surely? As long as you can easily access those main sources of...

    Parks with best looking websites

    Oh Joey <3 I wish I could live in your head for one day just to see how it works. You and Louis Walsh. Your inability to navigate Phantasialand's website is at least consistent with your inability to navigate the park with a wheelchair I guess. And I've just checked Heide's and it must be...

    Alton Towers' Galactica VR coaster/Rollercoaster Restaurant

    Re: Alton Towers' Galactica VR coaster/Rollercoaster Restaur Not true. Human eyes are fully developed by age 3, and they're about 3/4 finished at birth (which is why babies look like they have enormous adorable eyes). After three the only thing you have to worry about is ultra violet light...
