Thorpe Park stuff

I finally like Merlin Entertainments. It's taken 3 yrs but finally i see that they r gd for the Thorpe Park. For those of u who don't know Merlin entertainments took over Tussauds in 2007. Tussauds owned Thorpe park, Alton Towers, Chessington, the London dungeons and of course Madame Tussauds. Most of u probably haven't noticed that Thorpe Park has changed since it was overtaken by Merlin but I have. They are v different to Tussauds. Firstly, they care much more about scenery. Thorpe was always going to have a new coaster in 2009 but under Tussauds it was going to be a flying coaster that went close to the water. A bit like Manta at Sea World just smaller (I loved this idea hence i was upset it never happened). When Merlin took over they decided to go for a cheaper coaster that would have tons of scenery and hence we got saw. But saw was surprisingly amazing. Also Saw alive i hear has a ton of scenery and so does thirteen at Alton Towers. Though it does seem that they are trying to make Britain into the scariest place in the world. We have Saw, Saw alive and 13 all designed to scare u. Secondly, their upkeep of the park seems to be better. they have done quite a few paint jobs over the winter periods. Thirdly (the bad part), their map are awful. I think I ranted to Alex once about how much I hated their maps. Most of the rides are in the wrong place. The layout of the rides and sometimes the colour is wrong. Logger's Leap is going in the complete wrong direction. It's disgraceful. However, I do like their 2010 map. The layout is still wrong but it's funny to look at. So now that they have fixed their maps, kind of, i now have nothing against Merlin. (u can view all of Thorpe Park's old maps here which dates all the way back to 1981)

Anyway, I've replied to my uni offers. Cardiff is my firm. Greenwich is insurance. Hadley a surprise.

This week has been quite a boring one though Thursday was Jared's birthday. For reasons i don't understand, me and Jared have become v gd friends recently. He enjoyed most of his day but I think by the end he was a bit depressed.

This weekend i will spend finishing off my physics coursework which is in for Tuesday. After that I'm done with all A2 coursework :).

That be it

Bye
