A bunch of British TPR members couldn't wait til June for the Scandi Trip to start so we needed to come up with some excuse to go get drunk and stay up late earlier! With Thorpe Park opening Saw: The Ride recently we had the perfect excuse we needed. On top of Saw a few people in the group hadn't been to Legoland before which we felt would provide a nice complement to the madness of Thorpe. We had a great weekend! Updates... LEGOLAND (below) WAGAMAMA & HOTEL BAR! THORPE PARK So the first day we did Legoland. I just love this place. It's probably the best themed park in the UK next to Alton Towers and its just tons of fun. We weren't quite sure if we could do a whole day at Legoland but we found that when you have a great group of people you can spend a whole day there very easily! Without doubt the best ride at Legoland is Fire Academy, there's nothing funnier than competing against your friends and pumping away! Check out Steve's video (keep an eye on Anth!): Click to download video to your computer or iPod/iPhone Here's some photos...  Description: Brad's excited because we're at Legoland!!!  Viewed:  2199 Time(s)  Description: The first stop was the "new for 2009" shooting dark ride - Laser Raiders!  Viewed:  2199 Time(s)  Description: Beware pickpockets in training when in the queue!  Viewed:  2199 Time(s)  Description: The queue is littered with Lego "artifacts". Luckily these are bolted down in case people try and move them.  Viewed:  2199 Time(s)  Description: Lou loves generic Egyptian heads.  Viewed:  2199 Time(s)  Description: The ride itself is good fun. Maybe not worth the long waits but it's nice to have another dark ride in the UK.  Viewed:  2199 Time(s)  Description: The Battle of the Daves is reaching all new levels of gore and brutality!  Viewed:  2199 Time(s)  Description: If you visit Legoland on a weekend you're not allowed to queue up for it. The only way you can ride is by picking up one of these "fastpasses".  Viewed:  2199 Time(s)  Description: Whilst we waited for our Jungle Coaster slot we laughed at each other on the Wave Surfer.  Viewed:  2199 Time(s)  Description: Waiting for Steve to pass and pressing the water bomb button was a fun game!  Viewed:  2199 Time(s)  Description: I'll let you think of your own dirty caption for this one!  Viewed:  2199 Time(s)  Description: Today's lunch and DNA menu is brought to you by Steve.  Viewed:  2199 Time(s)  Description: Ooh a ride sign! We must have rode this next!  Viewed:  2199 Time(s)  Description: No you are not seeing things.  Viewed:  2199 Time(s)  Description: That is indeed an enclosed car!  Viewed:  2199 Time(s)  Description: Greenhouse POV.  Viewed:  2199 Time(s)  Description: The greenhouse makes it a very loud experience as the bits all smack against each other through the ride.  Viewed:  2199 Time(s)  Description: We tried bribing the ride ops to lock them in. Unfortunately the Legoland employees are way too honest.  Viewed:  2199 Time(s)  Description: I guess this means we did The Dragon next.  Viewed:  2199 Time(s)  Description: Dave is always on the lookout for new ways of attracting females.  Viewed:  2199 Time(s)  Description: Looks like it worked!  Viewed:  2199 Time(s)  Description: Beware the curses of Generic Wizard Man.  Viewed:  2199 Time(s)  Description: The evil dragon certainly had seen better days.  Viewed:  2199 Time(s)  Description: "I'm Super Dragon Train, gimme some track!"  Viewed:  2199 Time(s)  Description: Cartoonish photo of TPDave quota: FILLED.  Viewed:  2199 Time(s)  Description: The whores rode this. I just took a photo of the sign for TPR's park index.  Viewed:  2199 Time(s)  Description: The whores were also too lazy to walk up the hill.  Viewed:  2199 Time(s)  Description: I'm so excited to see Q-Bots in a Merlin park. Hopefully Alton, Chessington and Thorpe will follow suit soon!  Viewed:  2199 Time(s)  Description: "Yes, we're all members of the Hobosexual Alliance."  Viewed:  2199 Time(s)  Description: Of course this group is incapable of passing a slide without staging a takeover.  Viewed:  2199 Time(s)  Description: Time for the best ride in Legoland!  Viewed:  2199 Time(s)  Description: I'm convinced that this was designed specifically with TPR in mind.  Viewed:  2199 Time(s)  Description: If you're wondering why Brad looks so buggered watch the video above!  Viewed:  2199 Time(s)  Description: Fire Academy is Divv approved! I can't wait for a TPR takeover in Billund! More Legoland fun to come...  Viewed:  2199 Time(s) Last edited by Divv3k on Tue Apr 07, 2009 1:58 pm

It didn't quite work out.  Viewed:  2173 Time(s)  Description: So whilst none of those guys could breath for five minutes Steve took the opportunity to lie back and recover from the previous night!  Viewed:  2173 Time(s)  Description: Mike's problem #63 - sitting in the front of the Log Flume.  Viewed:  2173 Time(s)  Description: This be a dead skeleton made o' Blocko says I!  Viewed:  2173 Time(s)  Description: Yup, the streaker is still there!  Viewed:  2173 Time(s)  Description: I think I can see Lego Steve in the bar!  Viewed:  2173 Time(s)  Description: If you look real closely at the displays you find loads of cool little easter eggs like this.  Viewed:  2173 Time(s)  Description: The group gets super excited about the big shuttle launch!  Viewed:  2173 Time(s)  Description: BLAST OFF! Well, not quite.  Viewed:  2173 Time(s)  Description: Denmark is the only country in the world where the ducks are bigger than the cows. Who's excited about Scandi now?!  Viewed:  2173 Time(s)  Description: If you're in Legoland make sure you do Rocket Racers. Not so much for the ride but really because it has the BEST pre-show video this side of Sea Odyssey at Port Aventura!  Viewed:  2173 Time(s)  Description: Is he Dave or is he Laq?  Viewed:  2173 Time(s)  Description: Mike's problem #88 - Doesn't have a real grass skirt.  Viewed:  2173 Time(s)  Description: It's just like the Lego special olympics.  Viewed:  2173 Time(s)  Description: Is it Anth or is it Hitler?  Viewed:  2173 Time(s)  Description: Here's our supertastic fun group of Generic Lego Fans. We had a great day!  Viewed:  2173 Time(s)  Description: I really think Legoland is one of the best parks to visit as part of a group. I can't wait to get back to the one in Billund for more fun like this in a couple of months! Thorpe Park will be up at some point this week!  Viewed:  2173 Time(s) Last edited by Divv3k on Fri Apr 10, 2009 3:33 am
