Maybe it’s supposed to look like an ice lolly. I really hope they improve the central plaza area of the park as it really looks dated now and having the closed buildings ain’t helping.

I just keep thinking it looks like a lollipop that’s probably the sugar addict in me though. % agree, it does look dated but I do think that about a fair bit of the park but then looping do seem to be slowly updating it.

I really think they could open a big food hub here and they could remove the Chicken Diner and add another flat ride in the area and build a smaller kiosk for ice cream and drinks.

Been on park today - still lots of rides closed and closing randomly throughout the day (these aren’t breakdowns because they close the queue line and let the queue run down before closing). At one point one half of Thomas land was pretty much closed - with Winston, Lady’s, Rocking Bulstrode, Harold Cranky and the Bus all closed!

Isn't there a realistic possibility that this actually is operational policy and nothing to do with staff shortage? Not long after Looping took over I went to WMSP and the park there had one member of staff working on more than one ride. You had to wait not so much for the queue to go but for the member of staff to attend.
 
I’ve received the worst news today! Gotta have my appendix out which means factoring in recovery time I won’t be travelling to the park for the end of season and won’t be having a last ride on shockwave I was planning to do the Halloween event but I doubt I will be able to make it too. Looking forward to seeing what looping do to transform the park between now and when the new season opens.

Well I hope you are on the mend soon.
We'll save you a seat on Winston or the Lady's Carousel. :)

I've never been on Shockwave but will be looking to pop down specifically to try it. From what I hear about the smoothness of the ride I may end up coughing up my appendix on the trip!!
 
Overall well deserved.
Maelstrom was an odd one haha but otherwise we’ve had awesome value.
Towards the end the staff situation was unfortunate - and the school kids were feral and trashed the place - but until June the place was a dream to come to.

I'm not. Towers have received a lot of negativity recently and with only 1 re-imagined attraction for the whole year it all adds up.

They have significantly scaled back their christmas offering this year and the loss of nemesis and poor flat ride offering means together with food changes a lot of complaints. Its aimed at thrill seekers with the roller coaster offering. Nothing to attract families in my view.
 
If there is anyone from the park that monitors these boards there is something that they may want to consider. When visiting on Saturday there was a bloke with his family and the language that was on his T-shirt was awful and in very large and stark lettering.

I'm no prude, but if you want to have the profile of a family friendly park you need to see that you don't have this kind of thing paraded around.
 
I see they sold all the Thomas and friends benches and tables.

Staffing is becoming a major problem now with so many rides unavailable

I didn’t even see Maelstrom running in the time we were in the park

Also having rides on a rotating staff basic is a stupid idea and they need to sort of the operate of the Haunting.
