Im up for it.

:D:D if you didn't have anyone in mind we'd totally have 2 off ya. Deffo up for going again.
No! Midweek is better, I am not at work then and can put Maddy in holiday club while I go and enjoy myself at the pleasure beach :p
will sunday not just be mega busy, busier than a busy midweek day in a busy month?
maybe do that and do some other fun activity in 'pool, like fight or the circus (which is ace btw). or go all tits out and go to sandcastle LOL (shame they don't have the crystal maze there anymore)

lol.
whats the deal then? is it a real casino. i stumbled in my 1st ever casino in the uk on 21st july in london. was ace, i never gambled though, but if i had done on roulette i'd have won about 57 quid based on my guesses

Passage del Terror. Funny as hell. I was thinking of going over summer too, it'll be a good day out.

There's no chance in hell of me ever going on that ride.
Someone pick a date then, not August 14th though.

I think it's called Infusion. It used to be at Southport and they've it built over where the log flume used to be. You're in a harness and you go upside down and corkscrews and stuff whilst your legs dangle in the air. Fun.

No deal. People from work tried to make me go on it last week. There's no way in hell. I was traumatised as a kid on a ghost train. Scarred for life I am.
I could come, for me the deciding factor would be who else was going.
oh hai
im gonna chime in and say 21st sounds kool to me or at latest 27th/28th. Wud be a gd day out, get some prestone pics from da'pool

ooo i got all excited then. wse hit this a few times last time. the ejaculate in the face was most surprising i found.
that terror thing is ok, but its not changed in about 5 years :-(
they need to "vamp" it up (pun intended).
all the staff outside look like extras from prestons metal scene
I'm free anytime for ride shenanigans.
:eek:
21st?
hmm, do able, just before bank holiday so the pykological "lets save for the weekend" factor may be in folks minds

Since it's the middle of the summer hols I would say every will day will be busy and a ballache. I once went to Alton Towers this time ofr year and although the weather was nice, the experience was not as enjoyable as when I went at the end of September (midweek) - all the kids were at school and although it was colder and rained towards the end of the afternoon, we had a much better time.
People that went on it said it had changed.
i went in may and i think one ghoul had changed. wasn't worth the 6 quid or whatever i shell'd on it
steph, good advice. but where has my summer gone? i need a summer activity or i'll go mad

Maybe do something that's not as expensive and save blackpool til early september? Mind you, you may be onto something with the midweek before bank hol idea...
gonna research the business and bpool holidays. i know its the big summer hols, but each town within the 6 week have a 2 week period of the official hols.
so still lookin at dates

I have some BOGOF for Alton Towers but I think you are right and gonna avoid it during school hols.

DEFINITELY! It was absolutely teeming with kids on trips when I went in August, you definitely want to wait til they're at school.

This shits going down. Like iceblast.
And I am NOT getting wet this time.
bik said he could get some more cheapo ones or summat so should be ok for us all to have one! <3
I'm totally getting rich on the big one this time.
And I am NOT getting wet this time.
multilol
Ok...I might get moist if I see a girl in a skirt going on Iceblast.
Actually there are very few dates I can do, even Wednesday/Thursdays, damn me for working stupid hours because it is the school holidays and for volunteering to babysit for other people's children :mad: Will have to make do with taking Maddy to Camelot instead!

Oh hey I wanna come :) Can you just pay for the rides you go on? I'm a wuss and that would probably work out cheaper. I just like wandering around ^_^

It really doesn't work out being cheaper. Per ride it's something like 6 - 10 tickets, a ticket is about a quid.

I think you buy tokens.. Rich is a wuss too, but once he paid that was an incentive to go on things.. There's quite a lot of non scary stuff.. Toboggan, Gohst Train (IRONY LOL), valhalla.., smaller coasters, dodgems, carousel, alice in wonderland!!
scratch that, it's the scariest trippiest thing ever.

It is ace :p (hope it was ok to steal it)

I am a big wuss but forced myself to go on scary stuff at Disneyland and will do so at Blackpool, if I can come.

lol yes, I thought it was lame that people had the same one so made some more.

But £20's not exactly breaking the bank even if you don't, is it!?
we had the most fun on the dodgems IIRC. remember that little pykho bitch from hell, she owned us all

I want to come! Can only do Sunday/Tuesday/Thursdays though :/. And not Leeds fest dates. I'm rubbish..
Yeah, just had a look at my emails and because I booked online last time, I can get tickets for £20 each too, everyone.
I'll have one for me, and that leaves 3 left.
whenever. pick a date
i can do any date you see.
you scamps sort it out between you
well I'm cool whenever too so rest of you pick date.

Confirm a date someone, although I am going to Camelot the week before anyway, but that is with child. Also, if anyone wants them I have some BOGOF Alton Towers things that I will never use.
I can do any day from now on.
I also have 3 spare half price ticket things.

maybe do that and do some other fun activity in 'pool, like fight or the circus (which is ace btw). or go all tits out and go to sandcastle LOL (shame they don't have the crystal maze there anymore)
It's quieter during the week, I wouldn't even bother with weekends, its bank holiday weekend this weekend too so it'll be packed around now.
Not as fun when it rains but it won't be as busy.
And I went to the sandcastle a month or so ago and I was bored after an hour or two, and I have the mental age of a 5 year old. Although they have this weird circle of rapids that I enjoyed muchly.
I can do any day from now on.
I also have 3 spare half price ticket things.
I'm having two of them, thanks.
Can we stop fannying round and organise this now?
20th, 27th?
Those are the two options.
I am fine for both.
27th for me
Right 27th it is then.
You driving?

i dunno yet...
i'll prob only make arrangements last minute.
the bus to the p;ace goes right past my flat, so thats the likliest of options for me
This is waay too far in the future to plan it!
Ok we're all good for 27th. Let sleeping dogs lie until then!
Sundays will be well busy than during the week, when were you thinking?
I was in blackpool 2 sundays ago and it took me 55 mins to drive from south shore to bispham. Nightmare. dont go on a sunday.
Ive never yet been on the big one, I worked in blackpool for 2 months this summer and everyday I said I was going on it, but never did. I suck.
Right 27th it is then.

Yeah, I am in for that day too :D
