Start of may the fence around Jolly was still purple, or pink or magenta whatever it is. so this much have happened very recently if it's now black and white.. which doesn't sound very colourful for a theme park.

Obviously I don't want to comment until I see a picture, but again it's good to see more cosmetic improvements, no matter how small.

We will hopefully hear something about the new play area soon as it's was due to open this month. But then it was also due to open in 2017, so....

Yep, lots of disgruntled customer reviews on Trip Advisor relating to those closures. That's a massive chunk of the ride line up out of action.

Randomly, on the website it says that Tonys is/was closed on 2nd and 3rd of June.... Why does Tonys keep randomly closing?

Also, it seems like the Alice in Wonderland show was included with the park entry during the half term, which is great, but they should have made that more obvious.

Also, The Magical Mayan Temple is the name of the new high dive show! I can't wait to see what it looks like!

Still waiting for this other exciting news to be announced, as well as seeing the new indoor play area....

Rather odd, searching through the planning applications for somebody else I took a look for the hills latest application to which there is not one showing. Last one was the change of height for drop tower in 2012.

So why the alcohol and hours one is not showing that is stuck up on trees around the area is odd

Could, but they mentioned the dive show and "more exciting news to come" in the same sentence, so you never know.

I know there were plans for a replacement for TTT, it's just a shame that nothings happened with that. And I don't get why. Its just a flat ride, there's plenty out there to choose from new and second hand.

Try sending them a message, remind them about this exciting news. When i asked i was told to "Wait and see" but so far nothing to see.

I also had someone message the Maniacs facebook page it not so long ago, saying that it is going to be a great year at the park, but they wouldn't say why.

Obviously something serious with Wipeout, it's still closed and won't be opening this weekend at all according to the website.

Hyper Drive is still closed too, as is Moby Dick.

I find the figures surprising yet obviously good. Helped by the great bank holiday weather. We still need rides... Badly

numbers sound good.. but little did they know there was barely any rides when they arrived. lol
I hope they still plan to keep this open all year.. would make sense other wise wouldn't have been wroth them having a sensory room, but if they've got year round access it would be a good thing.

At least we know why it was put back so long after an initial Sep 2017 date.. that sensory room.

So now were just waiting on that 'exciting news'

If it was indicated on the website then I really don't get why people have the grounds to complain because it would have taken them about 30 seconds to gain the information. I agree that having multiple rides broken is going to be frustrating, especially at a smaller park like PWH but still it isn't that difficult to check so the point behind these people's arguments is less justified surely?

Seems a lot of faff for a show that will end in August, i would assume a new dive show will be back next year, other wise the permanent stage is a bit of a waste.

Let's just hope that the excellent weather has resulted in some decent attendance figures for this year so far.

Can only prey that will result in some decent investment for next year. Still can't believe they haven't brought in a kiddie coaster at all.

Could do with getting rid of the pony trail and replacing that with a kids coaster.
But don't forget we're still expecting that 'exciting news'

Given that nothing has been said on that for a long time, it's safe to say that's it not happening anymore.

That or it was just the dive show etc.
