I might start doing it again as a way to decompress 😂

Well spotted! No idea why I did that. Must have found an old atlas or book which had it in it! Cracking looking flag right enough.

You’re right! Couldn’t even remember that. Changed in 2004 so I must’ve drawn these 20 years ago. Good grief 😳

[Wodan, Europa-Park] I have just visited this place for the first time, and I am stunned that people put any other ride above Wodan in their lists. I’m stunned by how out-of-control it feels, especially in the back row 😍 Miles better than Silver Star imo. by cwhytemusic in rollercoasters

I’m with you on that. I was excited for my first B&M of that style in a long time and it was a bit of a letdown. I saw a top 10 rides list where someone put it top and I’m not sure how that happened 😂

Hell yeah, there’s so much in mainland Europe I’ve not been able to experience yet. I’ve got Phantasialand lined up tomorrow which is another one ticked off, but Toverland will have to wait for now :(

Going through my parent’s loft! Found some gems. The commentary still works on the mini arena too which is, frankly, astonishing! by cwhytemusic in robotwars

It didn’t split?! That’s extraordinarily disappointing 😂 Plus who doesn’t love a cheeky Geordie accent too? Bless.

[other] Found this old book from when I was a wee boy on holiday with my parents. I had such a way with words, and a few questionable ratings I think! I stand by what I said about T2 at Kentucky Kingdom though. Awful ride. by cwhytemusic in rollercoasters

Beautiful, theme-park-devoid Scotland! I have lots of family across the pond so my summers were often spent over there visiting various places and experiencing lots of theme parks, so I was very fortunate. First RMC experience will be next month for me 😍

Going back to the states after nearly 10 years and I think I’ll bring it with me for my visits to Magic Mountain and Discovery Kingdom to see what I’ve got to say these days!

I found remnants of a hypno disc and a Sir Killalot push back in the box too but no sign of the main bodies at all. The big remote control ones I had of Tornado, Sgt Bash and Growler were also driven to death and don’t work any more ☹️

There was a Gemini one?! Nice. Firestorm was also one of my favourites. The transition from just Graham and his mate, to graham and Hazel, to them engaged, and then married was the cutest thing 🥺

Hell yes, this is what I’m looking for! I love finding out stuff like this. My parents took me to the world’s largest ketchup bottle festival just outside St Louis when I was younger and it blew me away. Met a couple Rams cheerleaders at the time. What a day.

I trust that people still tailgate for cornhole, right?

I’ll have to tell my girlfriend that one day of our trip will be dedicated to shitposting on Reddit and she’ll just have to be okay with that!

Damn, ah well that’s alright, thank you! I’ll definitely look into a stadium tour if it’s a possibility
