Alton Towers...Review!

Well started off at 9 ish in the morning And what a beautiful morning it was

I was on pins all the way really in hope that my car would make it ......landed about 11.20 and chilled till a few of the others arrived

Got into the park and it wasnt long before the jacket came off and we were on the 1st ride.........NEMESIS!

Superb way to kick start the day.....then we made our way over to the RIP SAW most of the gang had already been on so it was just me and Shorty!!!!

Lost everyone after this point and our little group had to walk due to my fear of the cable cars and ended up lost in the wilderness for sumtime

After finding civilisation once more we decided to stick to the main pathways and did our own thing from here on in.....

Did the water rides pretty early on so it was nice and warm to dry off hehehe

Spinball Whizzer - Highly recommended and lots of fun to go on

Rita - Bloodyhell Pheeeeewwwwww tip top...what a set off....ya leave yer stomach at the beginning and collect it at the end

Managed to fcuk the camera up as the drink exploded in my bag and wet it through..so only got 5 or 6 pics to up

Jumped on the runnaway mine train and ended up on there with a bunch of loons (top guys) cheering and laughing, so we got an extra doo

Twas an all round top day....but the ride of the day is still OBLIVION for sheer terror factor ............ love it!!!

Managed to fit everything i wanted to in without any queing apart from Rita...which was pretty good goin i think

Was bloody tired when i got home though, it is a long day and after much ducking and diving up the M6 from the bloody wagons (ban them i say) we landed home about 8 o clock and proceeded straight to the chinese takeaway to see a great end to a great day

i had a wicked day and it was even better with the sun decidein to play out all day

has anybody else got sunburn ?? ben you gotta have surely, you was beaming a bit.

nice to meet some of the others too, well sort of meet, claire b easty and 2 others i cant remember the names of

managed to go on the rides we wanted but unfortunatly 4 rides had "technical difficulties" at the same time!!! wot a bugger air, oblivion,submission and the black hole was shut alltogether, then Rita broke down later on

the rapids had to be my all time chuckle of the day retro decides to bash everybody with his plastic blow up truncheon thingy and lost it in the water on the rapids, but the lucky bugger got it back as it followed us all the way round., mind you, he nearly fell out trying to get it

the new rides, rita and spinball are well recommended

the nemesis is still as good as ever.

we lost a few people along the way but met up throughout the day,

Gutted some peeps never made it, you missed a wicked day

FAO milenko, hows frank and bananas?????

Twas an excellent day all round. The weather was so good to us...made it a treat to be off work

As Deb's says, we manged to meet most of the crew, but then proceeded to go off-roading in the woods. Was a nice 30 min hike to get us back to the exact same spot we started from - doh!!

We did our own thing the rest of the day as we didn't have a great deal of time to get on the ride and have a bite to eat etc...

Was a shame really as didn't get chance to say hiya to everyone.

Was great though and will prob catch up with some of you at Hazy

Huge thanks to Debs and Dan for taking me down there

Mel...did you get on the Cable car???

Firstly, big thanks to the lovely Claireb for arranging this wonderful day.

Had a really good day and the weather was superb

Me and Craig got there about 10.30ish so we had plenty of time to go on all the rides we wanted to go on

Rita was my best ride by far, it was unbelievably fast! We kept watching everyone's face as it took off and it was soooo funny!

We went on the log flume and I stupidly put my bag in the corner, not thinking that it would get wet DOH!!! Anyway, my phone was totally fooked, along with everything else I had in it Luckily Claireb gave me the battery out of her old phone and it's now working fine. Thanks chicken, you're the besteset

Looking forward to the next OSA outing

See ya all on Sat

Vic
