Yeah I said they'd fill it all in. They might put one of those kids coasters in it's place, keeping with their kid friendly policy. I can't see them putting in a thrill ride, not along the main street aria of the park but they could surprise me.

Well I really can't see this being just another ride. There are so many areas around the park that new rides could fit in.

Maybe they're getting a big name kids area?

Still awaiting coolskin to take a bike ride ;)

Though I'm guessing he's been asked not to anymore, and he's obliging :p

Too muddy to go round at the mo on the field and too dark morning and night for when I am free.

There has been something upturned in the car park for a few weeks now yet it looks like small childrens tea cup thing. Car park is lit at night now always and it gives a great image across the night sky against wipeout, always makes sure I run that way.

If we get a good dry spell I will don my boots !

The park is surrounded by a public footpath that runs to the beach ( under old railway line bridge ) and alongside the rattlesnake on the gunton hall archery field up to old lane corton. 

 

The old entrance part is private  though and is only access for permanent staff living on site ( mr sealions )

 You'd think PWH would have left a couple boats left over from TOTC out for you to use on the flooded fields tongue

But i doubt the new addition will be. I reckon it'll be a summer opening as usual.

This is a theme park, if this 'project' is due for completion in 2017, they would say 2017, not 2016.

Well i guess it could mean a 2016 project with a 2017 opening, but if that was the case i think the park would have been clearer, but then the park has a habit of claiming it's going to do things and it doesn't, so many it just isn't going to saying anything at all instead.

But we know coolskin knows more than he's letting on so maybe this will be a long development.
If that's the case can we still look forward to new things this year?

who said it would be complete for this year ? a project can start at any time anywhere and go on as long as needed

"an individual or collaborative enterprise that is carefully planned to achieve a particular aim"

Well you could argue The Rattlesnake is still an ongoing project because it hasn't been finished.
Same can be said about Jolly, Fireball and Pony trails.

They wouldn't name something "project 2016" if they intended for it to open in 2018, for example.
