|
Does anybody know the line up for this one? Smiler says 5 coaster ticks were on the site last year.
We are also planing a jog down to Barry Island to ride the WD40 coaster and then on to Victoria Park to ride that Ridge Rider thing. It counts as a coaster on the counting sites but not on RCDB. Is this another controversial tick?
Anybody else going or fancy tagging along?

Go to www.cardiff-festival.com to find out more.
what time and which day are you planning on going ?, as I am going with my friend on Saturday, depending on the weather. Just had a look at the weather forecast and it looks like rain on Saturday and light rain on Sunday. |

Hope you had a great day if any of you went yesterday.
I went on Viritgo, the Waltzers, Freddy's Revenge, Viritigo, the Simulator which was showing the Astro Canyon Coaster, the Big Wheel where you could see some magninicent views over Cardiff, the Rock Rage, Millienum and Chasos.
What rides did you go on and did you go to Barry Island ?
Shame about the weather, but at least it didn't pour.
The fair is going to be in the same place on 31st December and 1st January 2010 for Cardiff new year celebrations, as well as the Winter Wonderland. |
