Come on dude, you're really gonna have to give us more than that. The video link doesn't work and the picture is sideways. Feedback on what, ffs?

Pipeline: The Surf Coaster. Almost certainly the best stand-up coaster on the planet but... hmm, yeah, that's not really saying much, is it? It's kinda like saying VAT is the best tax, or that syphilis is the best of the venereal diseases. At the end of the day it's still a stand-up coaster and...

Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind. It's ace. Really good fun. Nothing too intense of course - it's not tall, it's not fast, it's not particularly forceful - but the pure entertainment value here is off the scale. The onboard music obviously plays a big part in that and your own personal...

I like that. You say it's daft, Hixee, but there's way dafter already out there (the death roll, the mososaurus roll, the 270° double inverting corner stall etc...) In comparison, Monks Roll has a rather nice ring to it. That's what I'm going with and I'm gonna keep calling it that in the hope...

Balls of absolute steel on those cherry picker dudes. That thing looks so top heavy and unbalanced, you wouldn't catch me up there in a million years. 😮

This one came as a shock - Matthew Perry, AKA Chandler Bing. 54. Drowned in his hot tub, aapparently. 🤷‍♂️ https://news.sky.com/story/friends-star-matthew-perry-dies-of-apparent-drowning-at-54-12995478

Well, I mean... it's London isn't it? It just is. Greatest city in the world, always has been. Despite that trumped up little sh*t, Sadiq Khan, and his best efforts to try and ruin it for everyone, London is still the Top Dog in my book. NYC comes in second, what an amazing, buzzing place that...

You really gonna make me recount the misery and suffering of the pothole incident again? Really? Fine, if you insist. This was the first occurence of 'The Curse of @Sandman', one of two incidents that would see us deploy the use of a rescue/recovery service. I'll bet when he gets the...

#Coastle Boss. 😁

I haven't ridden Cobra's Curse, Tigris or Chunt, but I'm fairly confident that none of them would beat out any of the B&M trio, so I still have no hesitation in voting Montu.

Here's 10 that I actually have concrete plans for: Velocicoaster Hagrid's Iron Gwazi Mako Skyrush Wildcat's Revenge Phoenix ArieForce 1 Fury 325 Lightning Rod All being well, these should all be ticked off by next summer. And here's another 10 that are more of a wish list, with no plans...

I keep saying this, but the key to getting excited about this project is to not think of it as a short and slightly weird hyper coaster, but as Mack's exciting new take on a B&M dive coaster (the McDive, anyone?). Think about it, vertical (ish) drop, 3 or 4 massive floaty inversions and a...

Well, it's certainly not the best ride soundtrack I've ever heard, it's very typically IMAScore, sounds like a dozen other IMAScore scores... but it's not bad either, definitely gives off the right sorta vibe and could work rather well if it accompanies the actual ride experience. Yep, I'd defo...

Or better still, Thorpe Park could send the entire thoosie community into meltdown by announcing it will have Xtreme Spinning trains. Just imagine... 😲

Xpress Platform 13 at Walibi Holland. Exactly the same ride as Disney's Rock n Rollercoaster, except outdoors, unthemed and sh*t. The queueline might be quite atmospheric, but without the giant neon guitars and pumping soundtrack the actual coastery bit is meandering, dull and... well, sh*t.

That was actually gonna be my next question - "Maybe they'll spray it on afterwards?" - but then I thought "Don't be daft Howie, that's a dumb idea." Guess I'm not so dumb after all.

So far, I haven't seen pictures of any supports that fade from gold to white. Do you think we'll end up with that awkward, sudden colour change from gold to white, as it appears in the animation, or is it just that any gradually faded supports haven't been delivered (or photographed) yet?

Yep, ya got me. Again.
