I took the kids to Thorpe Park today and queued up specially to ride Stealth in the very front carriage. Mason and I were not dissapointed lol
Damn that things quick

Tunnel was well worth the £1 on the way back too

 

 

whoa where the hell is that place.... i want to go next weekend.

 

That'l be the one. The ride up front is totally unreal lol.

Shame Collosus and Nemesis were closed but good news was we all got free tickets to go back any time up till end of June

 

Go to Thorpe Park: Home
for full details.

Buy your tickets via Tesco club points and you can go for as little as £7 per person rather than £20 plus that most people pay.

 

We have annual passes

and are planning a trip to Alton Towers soon

 

i dont shop at tesco... its the devil.

 

 

Looks like another day out is on the cards

 

Was there interest in an Alton Towers Visit?

 

I'd be up for that when you thinking of?

 

Obviously would be date dependant and it's bloody knackering to do it all in a day including travelling there and back.

The last couple of times we have been we booked in to a B&B nearby....much better.

 

Good idea Steve. Last time Debs and I went we stayed up for the weekend much more relaxing

 

We were planning a stop at the Alton Towers Hotel as we get 20% off

I am sorting a date this week if there is interest I will find some local B&B details as well

Out of idle curiosity - have the ESC ever been to the other "Local" park - Chessington??

I only ask as the trip to Thorpe Park last year was a blast and there might potentially be more interest if it was a bit more local?

Alton Towers is definately IMO the best of them all, but as Fozzy says it is a bit of a trip away and staying overnight will add to the cost a bit....

 

IIRC

We did both parks last year

 

We have visited Chessington a few times in the past. That's what we were saying in the calendar thread, these things generally come up at some point during the year.

 

 

Guess the Chessington trip was before I joined up !!
