They aren't as popular as they once were, that is clear. However, I still feel they are a decent 'in-between' ride for youngsters to experience as a next step up before larger thrill rides. The thing with 'The Blade' is that it is shoehorned between 2 large coasters, and 2 other thrill rides...

Paperwork....consultation.....red tape....nature conservation....(repeat several times)... Yep, Britain does suck indeed!!

Agreed, the tractor ride could have been so promising but sadly, its a very sparse ride in comparison with other tractor rides out there. Good to see some new ride investment this year.

There are proposals to knock down the 'Futurist' theatre in Scarborough and replace it with an attraction that will include a roller coaster and space shot. Details here... http://www.yorkshirepost.co.uk/news/mai ... -1-6844320 Really hope this comes off as the 'Futurist' is dated and ugly and...

Re: Oakwood 2014 - New coaster? What a fantastic looking restaurant. Very nice!

In the case of 'Duel'...Not really. I start off trying to get a decent score then I soon get bored (or get finger ache) and just start reminiscing how good it was before the lasers were added.

Swarm is utter tripe....Nemesis is STILL fantastic!! Thats as technical as I'm going to get!!

Is this a list of all the flat rides you've been on (that you can remember) or just your favourite ones? p.s....King Kong for the win :P

Re: Shameless cred mopping-up in the north east, 22 Sept 201 :lol: Shame to hear about the Shrieksville ride, seems none of the staff have tested it recently to sort the darkness out. When it first opened it was quite good....not really scary in any way, just executed well. To be honest...

Re: Shameless cred mopping-up in the north east, 22 Sept 201 Mmm, think you're a tad harsh with Pleasure Island Darren. I wouldn't say Boomerang is that bad, sure its not glass smooth but its nowhere near as bad as what the corkscrews were or what any slc is. Yes, it has that concrete...

Nice carousel, should be fun for families. Speaking of Retro....I wish a park would bring one of these back...

Used to make montage videos of Live events many moons ago, but then went onto making documentaries and stuff like that for Ride-Guide and valley Mania. Nowadays, I rarely produce theme park videos. Have just filmed an half hour long short though which will be released shortly (nothing to do with...

Holy ****! Some great memories there and some old friendly faces....And look, it's Nadia!! whatever happened to Nadia?!! :D Bullet was my fave coaster at Flamingoland at the time and they haven't had anything that comes close to it since.

In the sense that it is unthemed, ugly and is probably rough as hell? And is being opened by Lemar!! Seriously....Lemar?!!!

Is this Flamingolands version of the Smiler!! :P
