Towers seems busy today, thought all schools had gone back?

sub terra still closed, hmmmm

someone has said nuts falling off the smiler today on the fb page

i went today, i was told it hadn't been open all day, i was hanging around in the afternoon and nothing, staff kept coming and going and answering the phone near the entrance .

No trains were going round, no one on the track, nothing.

Im going to The Towers tomorrow , how do i get on/up the ruins? to the top bit , do i have to go through the sanctuary bit?

I want to get a good pic of the smiler through the trees.

So same price as 13 and £3 million less than the smiler, makes you wonder if something funny was going on with the prices for those two towers coasters.

Shocking move from Towers, 2 main rides opening late, its not on, just makes oblivion and the smiler busier, pathetic. I may just sell my pass voucher this year.

Makes you wonder how many folk do this, no wonder you cant find anywhere to sit in the hotels at night.

But then again, if they are spending money in the bars, why would Alton Towers mind.

A new VIP Package has been revealed. VIP Diamond This is the next level of VIP; from your personal host, everything you could wish for on the Theme Park, staying over in one of our resort hotels with complimentary breakfast, then spend the day in the Waterpark.

was funny reading a post on alton towers facebook about a bloke who had vip pass, he didn't like waiting in the big fast track queue. i remember a picture someone put online about this time last year, school trip time, the nemesis fast track queue was huge. "Hi Alton Towers, Came to the park ye...

i love going on the alton facebook page and reading the posts by people asking questions, you get people who have got free sun tickets, complaining about the dates they have been given, asking towers if they can do anything, people moaning to towers if the sun tickets haven't come. Then you have peo...

i must have been on it 25 times, some rides are fine, others painful , depends where you sit and what car.

one time at the front the last 2 turns , proper made me move in my seat and my back killed, im 6ft pretty stocky, no other rides bother me.

ooh la la

did anyone notice theyve removed the annual pass entrance this year?

or was i bein stupid?

Not sure there is a pass entrance these days, you can use the pass on all the turn style machines.

i went yesterday, i enjoyed it a lot, must have done oblivion 7 times on early ride time, then walked through the smiler single rider at 10, 1 person waiting, they let us single riders up first, 4 of us, and straight onto the front row , first train of the day, haha. When we walked to oblivion someo...

i see the queue times aren't working on the app and website.

it looks like the overspill will be used every day, people who queue up before they open the main smiler entrance at 10 , early riders, get put in it, to keep the walkway nice and tidy

cant say i like the new forum look, its hard to see where the new posts are , they don't highlight like they used to.
