Scardy Scardy Cat!

Last week the boyfriend and me (along with his friend and girlfriend) went on a little day trip to Thorpe Park. To say it was an adventure would be an understatement! There were screams of delight, screams of terror and tears about wet hair...and that was from the boyfriend's friend!

And no...that wasn't a joke!

I'm a bit of a wimp when it comes to theme parks. I literally need to be dragged onto the scary rides kicking and screaming only to come off thoroughly exhilarated and begging for more! But you have to let me watch the ride for a bit first. None of this running straight on...I need to assess the safety features of the ride...i.e. the apparent lack of them on all rides! We're not meant to go upside down people!

Using this statement against me...the boyfriend pointed out that Stealth although vertical, did not at any point go upside down and so I had to go on...no arguments!

So after a bit of a panic attack in the queue, and an argument over which was higher: Stealth or The Big One (pointless but fun...The Big One won) I sat down in the seat and braced for the countdown...and did I need to brace? Oh yes! Check out the picture for proof!!



I may have braced a little bit too hard...I ended up with a bruise on the inside of my elbow!!

Oh and just so you know...the boyfriend was pulling this pose on purpose...he was going for the 'I'm so scared I can't look' pose...yet he wasn't holding on so I just don't believe him!!

All in all it was a great day and if you happen to go to Thorpe Park one thing you must believe...if you go on Tidal Wave....You're gonna get soaked!!
