On Saturday I ventured out of Woking again and this time I ended up at Thorpe Park with Emily.

It’s a lot like Dreamworld on the Gold Coast but probably more rides, and a absolute load more people. After standing in a huge queue to get in I had to stand in a security queue so I could be searched and then went to stand in the Saw: The Ride queue. That queue was taking ages (1hr 90mins according to the sign??) so we went and stood in the queue to get fast track tickets to queue faster…there was a lot of queuing.

Anyway the Saw fast track was sold out and I just couldn’t wait 2.5hrs so we got an ultimate fast track that allows you quick queuing on 4 different rides. One of them being ‘Tidal’ and considering it was already raining I didn’t like the thought of being soaked completely. After we went on a few of the rides we stopped for some Corona’s and it cleared up a little but this being England the moment we went back out it started raining heavier!

After the ‘Nemesis’ I felt quite sick and thought we should leave but after a tweet from Gavin I thought “we’re here now, we may as well go on the Saw ride”. The sign said 70mins so I thought why not, 1.5hr and some routine maintenance later we got on and I’m really glad we decided to wait because it was definitely the best ride of the day.

I don’t think I will go back to Thorpe Park, as it was mainly full of teenage chavs and mingas so I think I will give Alton Towers a go next.
