Thanks @Serena for organising such a fun day, it was great meeting so many new people and catching up with some people I haven't seen in years. Bring on the next one! Would a Plopsa Live work in early Jan instead of December?

Confirming I have a ticket now, see you on Sunday!

Ah ok, that's good to know. I did see while grabbing the site link that they've already opened a Viking area as a pre-show activity. Maybe I'll return once the expansion opens.

Interesting, they already have a site with a show that runs during the Summer up near Newcastle called Kynren. The original plans were to slowly expand this site into a full day park but I don't think this has really happened to the extent they originally proposed. It's mostly the big night time...

I love a dueling coaster and this looks like one of the best, that looks so well timed! Looks like a decent length with plenty of air time moments, excited to ride this one day.

How did I miss this news? A dark ride of any sort is what Paultons was lacking so this sounds like a great addition. Something similar to Popcorns Revenge would be a great fit.

Wow, looks like they're putting in a lot of effort sprucing things up. Love the new painted signs around Stealth.

Universal made a deal for the Japanese park with the Pokemon Company some years back (press release) and we've been patiently waiting for some sort of attraction announcement since. The same year the deal was made the characters started appearing in parades. The rumours are that Lost Continent...

Sad this is gone. The rumour mill seems to suggest it's going to make way for a new Pokemon attraction, using the same building and layout but potentially new ride vehicles. It'll be interesting to see what happens, hopefully they'll reveal more soon now that its closed.

A little sad they didn't pick the Huss Top Spin, the concept art for that was awesome. Intrigued if the Haunted Mansion is a year-round attraction or just something for their Halloween season.

This is going to look incredible when it's finished, the skyfly swinging around as Fenix swoops around it is going to look awesome.

Looks like I should be in attendance now and Nic should be tagging along too. I've been attending Lives since May 2005 so it would be silly to skip the 20th anniversary event.

Interesting, the rumours from the news of a new Texas park from yesterday seemed to suggest it was a Cedar Fair park. I wonder what drove Universal to divert out into a smaller park for children? The entrance logo looks like the Dreamworks logo and most of the properties look like they're from...

A group of us visited the park with K2 a few years back and we had a great time, we were planning on making a small tour to visit a bunch of the others (some were building hotels on site when we looked). Certainly a company to keep an eye on as they seem to have an interesting product on their...

Avatar: The Way of Water - I liked this, maybe I was too distracted by the quality of the VFX work to ever be bored? There are certainly more scenes just meandering around the locations like a nature documentary, rather than pushing any storylines. Those visuals are just so beautiful though...

More high praise for Violent Night from me! It's like a wonderfully gory love letter to Christmas films. The Home Alone inspired sequence is easily my favourite scene and the reactions from the audience are why I love going to the cinema. Just a great fun film that knows exactly what it is...

@Nicky Borrill I was super tempted to go back to Download next year but honestly the line up isn't doing much for me at the moment, most of the bands I like I'm already booked to see or I've seen in recent years. Shocked Iron Maiden weren't booked for the anniversary year, they feel so ingrained...

It's been a busy week at the cinema! Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery - Amazing follow up to Knives Out, the opening sequence alone put a smile on my face and it just continued to be a really fun time throughout. Highly recommend seeing it at the cinema but I think you have like 2 days so...

Oh wow, this hasn't been posted in for a while! In April I saw Keiino at a bar in Clapham which was awesome, very small venue, very dedicated fans (got a photo with them after!) They were supported by this year's Eurovision artists for Australia and Ireland which was fab and really helped...

Triangle of Sadness - I saw a lot of hype coming out of LFF so I was quite intrigued by this film. The pacing of it is a little weird and I wasn't that happy with the ending but it's a fun journey with some small key moments that make the whole film worthwhile. I was also glad to watch it with...
