"us in the uk carnt let the americans have halloween all to themselves"

Why not? It's an American holiday, that I for one do not celebrate, it being a pointless waste of time and just another excuse for chavs to cause disruption to the rest of us, by going to old peoples houses and terrorising them. However, I do like it how it used as an excuse to keep the theme parks open till late :-)

I'm going to say a preliminary yes for now gaz, without having consulted linny first haha. I'm not sure what we're doing around that time, my brothers birthday is in that week and we were talking of doing something on the weekend, however, that might be bringing him and mother to thorpe park [;)] heh heh, I can let them walk around on their own and plus I won't have to drive [:D]

ok, that Preliminary yes has just become a certain no for that day, the reason;

Saturday 20th October Wolves vs Charlton (at Molineux)

So yeah, sorry [V]

If there's a chance of rearranging I could come, but I don't know what days the fright nights thing is on so... I dunno when it could be rearranged to if you decided that you could rearrange it. So from me, it's a no [:(]

Why would you want to watch wolves though to be fair, you're as boring as Leicester!?

Judging by the game at the walkers we should install beds in the Kop cause everyone was falling asleep.

still a dunno from me.

I dunno, the last few home games have been fairly exciting to be honest, we won on saturday in the 94th minute, which is pretty much the most exciting way to win a game... other than coming from 3-0 down to win 4-3, but of course YOU wouldn't recall that would you? [:P] haha, best second half of a football match ever!

Seriously though, I can't wait for the next Leicieisieiciieieeeicieisieesseiciester game at Molineux, we'll'avya again!

Sorry guys. I cant come. Doing stuff on that day and theres no way i can get out of it. But can you please look for something for me when you go. Because a girl i know went last Wednesday and said that Detonator was stand up and you got tilted. She also said that you slowly bounce up the top and they count down from 10. And she said that you bounce three times when you drop. I looked on the website and it didnt say anyhting about it so i dont know weather she got confused with Drayton Manor or weather she was just lying. Anyways im not expecting it to be true but if you could look and report back that would be wicked! Thanks!

I've ridden it and she's exagerating it a lot.

* Not a standup,
* No tilting,
* No bouncing,
* No fake drop


It's a simple "Let's haul you up real slow" and "Scare the pants off you ride"

I love it :D

Wow, she only got 2 things right. The counting and the one drop. Are you sure she actually rode it?

Det is a VERY good drop tower however. Even if it is pretty small. Scared the crap out of me first time because of the massive amount of room between me and the restraint!

Anyway, no suprise here gaz, i wont be going. I dont have the money seeing as my new job pays CRAP! Plus i havent had me driving test yet so cant get there. But hopefully next year, things will change - CAR and MORE MONEY! woop woop! [:)]

People should really suggest meetups like asking preferred dates and things so theres no waste of time having to re arrange things. [;)]

We're playing Ipswich on the 27th.... But it's away!!! So for me and Linny, the 27th is the best day, if everyone else would be ok with rearranging it to then? Just I can't really ever do sundays, or at least it's difficult, especially if it's as far away as Thorpe Park! [lol]

seeing as she'll be there, lol.

although i have an assignment due in after that weekend, so i'll have to see how i go with it on the days before.. but hopefully i can come, and if not it may just be gouldy & co. (ie his mum and little brother - who u'll all think is his sister) [lol] haha, sorry - thats mean (but true!).

I might come as somethin scary!!!!!!! like [confused] a spider? no. i can't. it doesn't bear thinkin about! perhaps i'll wear my bunny ears and tail and be an evil bunny who's turned nice [:D] i don't do scary! [:(]
