2011 Map


I thought I'd best start a new topic so the trip report doesn't get swamped under!

You can zoom in with this link: MAP

Its not really a new map as such, just new ride pics showing what the rides are.

Things to note:

That Woodys Flying School isn't on there, and the area where it was is empty (old Cine 180 site)

They changed Fireball's pic to the old one and Timber Falls is STILL yellow....

Main Square: BMX Show, Comedy Trampolines and Street Dance!??! What the hell? I presume the Street Dance and BMX Show have come out of the Circus show? But comedy trampolines? Is that them Bungee things that are round the back of the main street?

Also, no sign of the miniature railway... I see a little bit of track, but thats it.

And just how badly is that white patch of land below Wipeout crying out a new ride!

Strange that they've not put that in... however, they might re-do the map once it's open...

Also on the FB they said Yes there is. If you bring the '£11 offer' flyer in with you, up to 6 people get entry for £11 with the free game and meal. - "Free Game" implies the laser quest... unless there's something else I can't think of =/

A free go on the sidestalls in main sq. On that note, there are now two stalls (basketball and footie shoot i think) alongside carousel.

^ Really? How horrible! Its nice seeing some little games like that, as it makes the place feel like a real theme park, but some of them are very tacky.

Anyone else notice that odd green square next to Wipeout on map??

Yeah that left ages ago. Still a bit odd for them to have that odd green patch on the map though. (Didn't Hobo say that Fireball was going to be moved to next to Wipeout......?)

Can't help but wonder how that would fit there, the space seems too small in my memory - would also make the area seem too crowded, when there's lots of empty patches of land around.

^ Yep I agree, that would be an awful place for Fireball.

This new map really does show up the empty area's in the park...

Just look at the area above the Veteran Cars, and below Wipeout, thats mahoosive!

I'm telling ya, they've even made that little area below Wipeout look like a construction site, with its fence and gravely look!lol

(Also, my hawk eye has spotted a mistake, theres a 'take away kiosk' logo at the op right of the lake, that is obviously wrong, yeah?)

A question fo anyone who has been this year, is Woody's Flying School still there? It was on the old Cine180 site, but according to the map, nothing is there this year?

I could be wrong but didn't they move it to the kids area?

Yeah Woody's Flying School is still there - on the old cine 180 site. Its a large piece of land crying out for something special......

^ Yes, it even has that covered queue area!

Well it seems odd that they've that area completely blank as it is there. I know its not exactly a major ride, so I wouldn't expect the name of it on the map, but a little drawing at least, just to show there is a ride there.

Yes it looks like it.

The map is quite bare, so I find it really odd that they decide to leave stuff off the map!
