22nd March Thorpe Park ***updated with pics.***

[Latte Lover]

Great all we have to do now is look out for the half price offers in the local paper.

Well, I probably won't be able to join you since I think my sisters are coming back for easter and I should be at home even though meeting up with you guys would have been cool. I've got an annual pass so it wouldn't have cost me anything either.

However this, I will say that Thorpe Park really doesn't have mnay if any great places to eat. Its either KFC, Burger King, Pizza Hut Buffet, and a few places serving Chilli, Hot Dogs and Fish & Chips.

Probably the best place for food is pizza hut but if there's people joining in and leaving at different times then probably not the best place. Sorry, I'm probably not much help.

I must apologize for posting on Theresa's log-in, two above.
It was my poor use of punctuation, not hers.

Looks like it will have to be the 23rd I'm afraid chilly,

Has anyone got a favourite place to eat in Thrope Park????

No problem Tony, hope you all have a fab time.

When we went to Thopre Park we went to Pizza Hut and did the buffet.

Don't forget you can use Tesco points for tickets.

Looks like I might be able to make it now but it looks like I might be by myself, but I'm not sure.

It might be a bit hard for me to recognise any of you, since I don't really hang out on this board so much.

Thanks Claire
DW has ordered our tickets today with Tesco vouchers and it only worked out at £8 worth each.

I went to Thorpe Park yesterday and came across another place to eat/meet. It's a barbeque place near the Carrousel at the entrance to Canada Creek. It does good food and allows people to come and go as they wish. Mind you, no idea how busy it will be compared to Pizza Hut or anywhere else.

TP also seems to be putting on a stunt show or two, which sounds better than previous shows including Jet Skis, Skateboarding, BMXing, etc. I don't know of what use that is if no one's interested in that kinda thing.

I also want to ask, if this is not too cheeky, since I will most likely coming by myself (Mum usually gives me a lift and then goes shopping in Staines, a nice treat by her standards) is there anyone who wouldn't mind if I tag along with them. I usually tend to go on most rides and after yesterdays experience, waiting alone for Colossus for 1 1/2 hours gets a tad boring. I'll also add that because I've been so many times, I pretty much know the park like the back of my hand.

TIA

Hi Charlotte
You are welcome to tag along with DW and me but i'd suppect you'd sooner go with Joh's DD's.
Whichever, you are more than welcome to come along.

Charlotte, as far as I know there are only 11 of us going anyway (unless Tony knows different) - me and my lot, Tony and Theresa and Natalie and her clan. I thought we would probably be pretty much sticking together and you are more than welcome to stick with us (as long as you can put up with the kids )

Oh OK, wasn't sure on the numbers. I presume I'd get along with the older kids since I think I'll be around the same age probably slightly older. As said, I think I know enough about the park to be a reasonable guide, as long as I don't have to go on the extremely scary rides like Slammer and Stealth.

I Am Joh's Daughter And I Would Be Happy If You Would Like To Join Us.

I Dont Like Scary Rides Either But Im Probably More Scared Than You .

[tony64]

My SIL and her family are looking to come along and my DD 19 and DS 17 may come as well.

Just thought I'd give this a little bump to see if anyone else is going to join us Fingers crossed the weather improves in the next couple of weeks
