Thats good that you had fun at Thorpe Park, its a good place to go :)

I don't mean to interefere but I think its best that you should be carful about what information you put onto any forums/blogs ect, especially if people have seen your pictures on the internet on a online profile like bebo or myspace, I know you proberbly know but it just concerned me when you wrote "going tomorrow" to Thorpe Park.

Ah the lovely school trip period..

Thorpe is bare good if it not busy, if its busy then its bare crap.

Tip for anyone thats going; If you don't mind riding alone, use the SRQ's (Single Rider Queues) - They can cut your wait time by 2 hours.

Same with Stealth tbh..

You just want the lovely Lisa to be working on Stealth, talk to her nicely and you'll get sat together. :)

TP removed single rider queues on everything but Flying Fish and Stealth.. Thats bare out of order! :(

Same thing on Rita, well the bloke asked if we wanted to swap.

I think all but one of the times on Rita i've been able to sit with who I was queuing with..

Bar the one time me and Sam was in SRQ, she was like Row 1, Row 5

I went to Row 1, and there was a dummy sat next to me.. It didn't even smile for the ORP how sad! :(

most of the SRQ's are good... except for spinball (I heard they got rid of it)


I swear it takes longer in the SRQ than it does in the actual line, haha.

It's bare QUICK now!

It's not been removed, where did you hear that?

Because Maurer Sohne buggered up the design of Spinball (Basically, if there are 4 people in a car, all pushing against the restraint at one time.. They'll all fly open, and err die.) and it now has strict weight limits and a max of 2 men per car, and a max of 3 people per car - The SRQ works well, as most people are in 2's.. Leaving someone in the SRQ to fill the last place!

haha, it was like... so slow when I last went, but that was before the weight restraint, i'll give it a try next time I go.

All the rides their are pretty amazing.
Btw so you know the best time to go on stealth is around 9:30am just as they open they queue is normally around 3 minutes.
I Love thorpe park. :$ I must go before the summer holidays :P

If it's a warm day DEFINITELY go on Tidal Wave, It's a great ride and if it's warm you dry out within the hour, I went there for a school rewards trip last year. If it's not warm don't bother you'll be freezing afterwards and it will take ages to dry.

I was wearing a silky football top and a pair of grey nike jogging bottoms god it took me so long to dry, just as i got dry i went on it again

I live about 5 mins away, all I can recommend is going on the 'bigger rides' just as the park opens, and just as it is closing.

None of the rides there are anything to be scared of. Don't bother queueing for zodiac (or samurai or quantum cos they have been tamed down and are rubbish now)
