Time to look for a new job. Will need this, right? 😂

I have to try and balance in my brain the fact he trotted out some utter wibble during the Johnson years (👎) with the fact he paints 40k (👍)

This cocktail (desert) from TGI Fridays was great. It was like an oreo shake with banana liqueur. I wish they still did it #tgifridaysuk

There was a Vekoma Madhouse that didn't have a "spooky" theme! There were 4 water rides of varying levels of wetness! There was no outrageous queue-jumping!

However Toutatis was an absolute joy. Not as crazy ejector as VelociCoaster but super fun and smooth. The Gerstlauer family coaster was great and Oz'Iris was a B&M invert with a unique layout.

I will say these three coasters are ROUGH. The woodie's refurbed parts were ok but the old track was painful. The bobsled was a mixture of constant rattling/shaking + harsh positive Gs. Goudurix is possibly the roughest ride I've ever done and it can burn in hell. Every transition slams you

The dinner buffet was genuinely incredible. Every part was flavourful and most importantly HOT! Comparing it to what you'd get at somewhere like Alton Towers is night & day. They had wild boar! The only downside was seeing a kid deciding they'd rather open-sneeze than put down their plate.

The hotel we stayed at was beautiful. The room was well sound insulated with a double bed and separate bunk-bed area.. The staff spoke good English (I was worried so close to Paris!). All the other children in the hotel were quiet and well-behaved.

Parc Asterix really showed up the UK parks. It's not Disney but I think it beats anything in the UK. Starting with it being open from 10am to 10pm every day we were there with 30 minutes early access for hotel guest.

I wasn't expecting this one. Ride to Happiness isn't the only bonkers coaster in Plopsaland Belgium. This was Anubis, a Gerstlauer rolling-launched Eurofighter. It has one of the most forceful LSM launches I've experienced.

Ride to Happiness was my 100th coaster. What an INSANE ride. It's really hard to rank it as it is so different to anything else.
The park is such a strange mix too. The closest I can think is if @paultonspark.bsky.social suddenly gained the world's most extreme coaster.

I knew it has a reputation but even with new trains Goudrix was quite possibly the roughest ride I've ever been on. 🥊😖🥊
The only positive is I've redeemed myself as I chickened out when I came here on a school trip in 1994.

Had a preview of the upcoming @paultonspark.bsky.social attraction by riding the one at @plopsa.com Belgium. A really solid ride that is fun for all ages.

Plopsaland Belgium - I'm ready for my 100th coaster tomorrow. I'm going to be very happy after taking that ride.

Have you looked at Google One Premium? That includes Nest Aware, Fitbit Premium and a ton of storage for £80 a year. I just consolidated it all. (They'll probably increase the price of that soon too)
