"Alton Towers"

Going to Alton Towers this firday taking the gf as a birthday present(may sound selfish but she loves rollercoasters). I was wondering if anyone had any good tips any paticular rides? Or any tips to miss cues?

gettin bored of alton towers now. They havnt done much new to it for ages. Its only worthwhile goin on Halloween cos they transform the towers into a spooky hellish knightmare, which you can walk through. Plus theres hardly any1 there and u can ride Nemesis in the dark!

Spose wont miss anything then.

Why is it, every once in a while, this type of post appears?

There's always somebody going to Alton Towers, or some other amusement park, wanting to know which rides to go on....

JUST GO. GO ON ALL THE BLOODY RIDES.

Yeh they sound good, will try and get some. Is it worth it to pay the extra £3 to park nearer the entrance?

When me and my mates went, we fasttrakked by using brains and in 5hr were able to do: AIR x2, Nemesisisis, Black Hole, Oblivion x3 (is short)and some of the lame stuff.

IF YOU WANT TO AVOID HEADACHES DONT GO ON CORKSCREW WITHOUT A HELMET. your head bangs from disde to side and round and up and its rubbish

Thats the one where your in like a waltzer on a rollercoaster.

Get Fastrak tickets and you have an alloted time to go on the ride, where you dont have to queue as much. Otherwise the queue is about 1½ - 2 hours.
