i went last week and was little disappointed to be honest. never been to theme park b4 and the mrs made me go on tidal wave first. Spent the next few hours totally soaked, nto really that much fun in my opinion. on the plus side rides like collossus were really good. I actually really enjoyed pirates 4D, was like an amazing 3D film type thing and have never seen anything like it b4 and never realised 3d films were so good.

Detonator is closed at moment too i think, but all in all a good day out

LOL, the tidal wave is fucking class on a hot day. On a cold day - forget it! We went on it in April last year, and spent the rest of the day shivering

As said do wet riders at the end, if not hot.
I went there about 3 years ago, went on a rollercoaster that is indoors, assumed it would go outside, it didn't and went backwards, made me sick!!
The mega drop things is good, though a struggle to get on if a biggy!!
