Closed Season 2020-21

Anyone heading down today?

Ride status has a tick for pirate yet it says closed for maintenance, chairlifts open at noon as standard it seems now. Snake open at 11am approx

The new look may be that mini railway

I expect many things to be off Saturday or issues, like most parks have had.

Fireball off the PWH website yet Waveswinger is still marked as closed!!!!!

I think a clock would look really random tbh. And now the sign is up, you wouldn't be able to see any clock unless you move to the side to look behind the sign.

I swear most people on here just look for a reason to moan 😆

It's taken far too long to get it yet its here. I think the other one with the track each side was good too.

I said ages ago that tower needs a clock or a sign with the 3 characters on.

A clock would be best and handy.

oh , using the same logo... i never really noticed the extra parts of the old sign.

Before

isn't that the same same sign they had before?

Finally a entrance sign...

As a collector of maps, I would rather that option than no map at all. And it does come with lanyard at least.

Thorpe tried charging 50p a good 10 years ago and they soon dropped it, so we'll have to wait and see.

Even they have wheeled something in. Meanwhile we get another empty patch

I'm probably too short to go on any of the rides theses days,, unless i wear my work boots which might just squeeze me in.

The pirate is back in one piece, two new leisure way signs are on order as they have been taken down, some fly tipping and more tree cutting on the entrance slip and does anyone wanna discuss ride heights for guests.

The pirate ship supports are finally going back up....

Well I have tried to mention news in other sections, but no one seems to comment on them in there. People only seem to comment in here 😆

Drayton have today confirmed the reopening of the Rapids!

The laser quest was UPWH one and only outing! Was a great day!

We lost a ride no one talks about, the clown slide 🤣

It's weird that we've gained 11 attractions, yet only lost 5, but the park seems to have more empty spaces than ever! I think they just need to shuffle some of the rides around a bit to make the park feel more full.

One move that I would really like to see is the Ponies being moved into the farm area. I mean it makes sense really, doesn't it?

Yet the wheel on the golden mile looks ugly. Whats the new ride for Albert?

Where is this news of a new ride for GYPB? And is it not possible that this new ride is a replacement for last year's failed new ride?

Possible good news on the Pirate Ship?

GY PB have yet again a brand new ride on the way. More information is expected during the new week ahead. The hills are really falling behind now.

Its on the map and listed so assuming it's going to be up and running. Pulling it very fine however, unless the cranes are all booked up

New car park signage installed, let's hope the SD ones have been altered/fixed. And will we get a entrance booth sign ?!!!

Thanks for the update, Rattlesnake is rather loud

Apparently Fireball has left the park...

Ok I guess saying 'New ride' might be a bit naughty if there's nothing planned. How about "area under development for your future enjoyment".

They just need something to show visitors that they're aware of the empty plots of land.

I think I would rather an empty plot than a SBNO ride. They just need to stick some "new ride coming soon" signs up on these spaces.

Yes, yet another empty plot

From what I can see it's still for sale. I guess it's good that it won't be SBNO in the park.

And so much earlier than I had expected , it appears fireball is being dismantled. A crane is attached to its swinging arm which is locked slightly towards the toilet block by the dodgems. Is it still for sale?

Still no pirate ship build up.

In memory of what was once a superb thrill ride here is the news article dated May 2004.

I wonder if you get discount at DMP etc with a pass ? As well as these...

Martyn, whats in that picture and what has Picasso got to do with it? 😅

There getting ready for a bigger drop tower, maybe the one from DM 😂😉

Martyn Picasso is back!

So imagine a nicely themed little pirate area, featuring a relocated Moby Dick, a small children's coaster, a nice play area in the style of Fort Fun, and a new little food kiosk with some outside seating. Along with a nicely refurbished Cannonball and Jolly Roger. Ahhh, perfect.

Interesting, on the website it states wave breaker and swinger not open and chairlifts

Then how do you know 🤨 wink wink 😉

Its not viewable from public footpath or the bridge 😉

Any picture of the signage?

I'm sure they will have a willing group of trialists on here and the Facebook group, if they fancy some doing some early testing of the app!

no roof on hyper.. could they be dismantling it 😃

I wonder if we could see some work happen in the months ahead once the parks open, only weekends until July obviously we’ve got Easter and May half term, it’s something they done with RTTT

I did say a few weeks back no changes and not even paint been sorted on log flume, would have thought pirate ship would be back together by now. Also no paper maps for 2021, that's a shame yet guess it was gonna happen at sometime.

I assume all other parks will probably follow suit

What has happened to the roof on Hyper Drive? Looks like it’s came off

Doesn't appear that much has changed at all. Even the log flume doesn't look any different, which is a shame.
