    Morning all.

    We're going to Chessington World of Adventures today.

    Better day out than Legoland, Elbow.
    Agreed.

    Alton Towers is good but all the way up there.

    I hate theme parks, the rides make me feel ill, the queues p1ss me off, the cost is eye-watering (we take sarnies).

    Still, the kids love them, so I try not to look too grumpy.

    Not been to one since Disney in Florida, that's nearly 2 years ago. Silver lining of pandemic for me...:)
    Where did you stay? Both times luckily managed to avoid school holidays and could walk on to any ride with minimal queuing.

    Love big roller coasters. Can't wait till Shorty is tall enough for Alton Towers. Don't see the point in going if she can't go on the bigger rides.
    Tricky's well up for it. She'll go on the local show* rides - you know, the one's that make you feel ill. Any sort of pendulum and I want to puke but loved the 'Black hole' and the 'Thunder loop', which I don't think is there anymore.

    *Jocklandish for 'Fair', strange bunch.

    Nah to Chessington. It was very much inferior to Legoland.

    Morning folks,
    Slowish start was enjoyed, now doing an impression of an MF and sitting in a car park. Off to the old dear's next. It's a touch warmer than I expected, but not exactly balmy.

    You haven't got out of the car yet have you?
    Still haven't 🙄
    Now sitting outside the Co-op whilst EPO gets supplies.
    My headset came V. Are you free next Saturday around lunchtime, so we can do maintenance and have some pizza? You'll meet mini, but Mrs H³ is off out.
    Sounds good, send pictures of the headset so I'll know what tools I might need.
    Chessington is painful, thankfully when the kids were the right age we had a neighbour that worked for them and got us lots of passes.

    I'm a bit knackered - 10 hours of driving to and from Liverpool but with a decent bit of 'Panzercize' on the way back by avoiding the motorways for a bit. Its cider o'clock, followed by MOTD - hope we won :)

    'ning

    another month of winter, sigh

    ride up and down, coffee and cake, laze

    don’t wish to alarm but some irate chap in cake shop called you a d!ckhead. Is this true? Why didn’t you tell us? We’re an accepting bunch and statistically speaking, 1 in 3 men is a d!ckhead. I suspect that ratio is higher in BB.
    Yep, a couple of Bracketeers get an honourable mention over in Cake Stop :D

    is this the thread where i got called both 47 and an oik?

    i thought oik was young people.

    tbh fam, blood, i think its quite funny given the bloke who wrote it is obviously stalking us, wanting to be us.

    Yep :smile:

    Lost the !/4 final 3-2. Good game but lots of angry footballers and Kopite behaviour. Still, can't beat a decent game of football (you obviously can if you don't like playing football).

    I also don’t like watching football so screwed on both counts. Sorry you didn’t get through though.

    Careful now. That’s worse than Wrexham.
