WHO WENT

Just me, everyone else was poorly  Sad

Ride count

Infusion - 12
Bling - 4 (on the inside seat touching someone elses feet while the ride was building up was a bit scary)
Steeplechase - 12 (yellow track of doom open again Twisted Evil )
Rev - 6
Dipper - 6
Nash - 3
Rollercoaster - 2
Monorail - 1
Avalanche - 2

Total rides = 48

HIGHLIGHTS

- Yellow track of doom open again on steeplechase
- Getting lucky walking past nash and avalanche just as reopening after breakdowns, queue jumper  
- Nash running well
- Great ride count for a Saturday

LOWLIGHTS

- Not doing PMBO, mind you on one train I was not waiting for ages. They will always be next time.
- Only 3 rides on nash due to only two trains running, the red train was poorly.

Overall

A great day was had and the a great ride count even though the park was a touch busier than the RCCGB weekend two weeks ago.
Finally may I congratulate Pete Sadler, Chris and the rest of the Infusion team as well as the security team for the way they dealt with some yobs spitting at people down below. They all reacted fast and resolved the situation with the minimum of disruption.

A nice visit, shame about the 'yob' element. I'm really missing BPB now.

A few people from the BPB guide who went on Saturday noticed various yob behaviour around the park, things like yobs spitting at people from the flying machines.

It only ever happens on Saturdays which shows the type of person that Blackpool attracts at weekends. No wonder the resort is struggling.
