I cannot see one of those giant bear things without thinking of this, and I feel like you'll agree

I still don't understand how we didn't manage to bump into each other - I landed in Atlanta about two hours after you, and seemed to remain a few hours behind the whole time! I went to Georgia Aquarium on the Friday morning, thinking it would be slightly quieter and I might avoid some of the...

OK, I've ridden quite a few of these now :) 1. Iron Gwazi 2. Arie Force One 3. Zadra 4. Wildcat's Revenge 5. Steel Vengeance 6. Wildfire 7. Twisted Timbers 8. Untamed 9. Twisted Cyclone 10. Storm Chaser ...and the Jersey Devil Coaster exists.

I feel like there aren't going to be that many voters who have ridden both (he said, a little snobbishly) but I was disappointed with DC Rivals to the extent that I've given this one to Hyperia.

^^ As a rule, I dislike 'influencers', but people who make theme park videos are generally fine (so long as we're looking at the actual park, not their faces) I'll use the videos if I'm planning a trip to somewhere I've not been before (often quite useful) and I'll watch ranking videos (to...

Well, I'm not doing that one as well - it will have to stay on the spite list. As great as their coaster line-up is, the park is a shambles. I assume Cheetah Hunt is next on the chopping block. Their post reads like a retrack to me, though I'm intrigued to know how they'd spend 100M on that.

I'm hearing lots of rumours of it going to one of the Orlando parks if anyone knows more about that? I've visited the Kissimmee Funspot and have zero desire to return. I'll be at Fun Spot on the evening of July 24 if anyone else is around. Woo.

There's a relatively cheap flight out of Manchester on July 23. You'll have to share it with some balding, speccy bloke though.

I could add to that list ad nauseam - and those aren't even the worst examples. I've unfollowed a lot of theme park social media accounts (amongst others) because it drives me insane. 'Vibes' is another - and I LOATHE being called a 'thoosie'. Adding to the other point - the people who were...

Perhaps it was having an off day, but I was rather disappointed by Fury 325 - I preferred Thunder Striker.

I was about to write a list but realised I can't remember a damn thing about Gatekeeper or Thunderbird. However, I do now know that Rapterra is one of those coasters that gives recent B&Ms a bad name. It looks very good though.

May have been posted before, but I've just been introduced to an episode of Brum filmed at Drayton Manor. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bhSINdTz8wQ

I'll be glad when it stops being cool to pretend B&M are bad. That said, I shan't be rushing over there for a dive or a wing coaster - and a surf coaster is even worse.

Who the hell voted for Albania? Revised to remove eliminated songs:

I think Croatia's entry would be great in the right setting, I'm just not convinced that Eurovision is that setting...

^ Pretty much went as expected, other than Poland and Belgium going through for some reason and Montenegro not doing. I did like Estonia's song, it was a bit of silly fun, but I'm not at all surprised the juries and fans rolled their eyes at it. Israel's song is the worst they've sent for a good...

It's that time of year again... Being me, I listened to every entry on a car trip last week, so here's a provisional ranking, which will almost certainly change when I've seen the performances in full...

This is always difficult, but I've dragged myself to two UK parks so far this year and giving a few things a re-ride... 1) Nemesis 2) Hyperia 3) Swarm 4) Wickerman 5) Oblivion 6) Nemesis Inferno 7) Millennium 8) Dragon's Fury 9) Icon 10) Jubilee Odyssey Of course, there are at least four...

^ Just because I haven't got bored of posting this yet
