Just had a day out at Alton Towers today and although I've been somewhat of a pussy when it comes to rides, I decided to bite the bullet and go on everything this time rather than just a few.

We had fast passes for everything so did all the major rides but fu#K me the Smiler was mental. Came of it white as a sheet, sweating like mad amd, thinking never again but omg what a ride.. Gonna have to do that again.. Lol

Went to Thorpe park last year for Jonseys birthday and did Stealth and Swarm and the year before we spent a week at Portaventura so had to take my daughter on Dragon Khan everyday.

So what rides do you like or theme parks can you recommend?
 
I went for a little ride in your car last night, came back from that white as a sheet with Ste drifting it round Bolton.....

Lol, that might have something to do with the crap tyres its got on the new alloys to get me home legally....

How was it?.... Is it quick and is it loud?
 
It's pretty special alright. Still work in progress, it was literally a 2 min drive around the block to check everything was ok, I just tagged along.

You'll not be disappointed with Smiler then.

that happened to me last year with nemesis sub terror! was closed for painting! you would think that could be done when the park is closed

Tbh I was a little disappointed with Sub Terra, I thought it could've and would've been a lot more shall we say.
