Feel sorry for you guys, my wife goes on all except oblivion and I still try n get her on....my mission continues... 8)

My hubby's very lucky and i will go on most, but funny enough I won't go on Oblivion! I'm not keen on flat rides either!
I love roller coasters they are my thing.
I can't believe how much the smiler has changed since I was on park at the beginning of may, it's amazing how a bit of paint and some shrubs can make a big differnce (although I still would of loved it without the extras).
Just can not wait to ride the thing, shame I have to wait until September.

I managed to take some videos!
One thing though, not sure if my campsite's upload speed is fast enough to upload them

Today, on the marmalizer, they had:
- The Tickler, fully working
- The screens, (minor pixel glitch here and there)
- The Hypnotiser (wasn't spinning around that fast)
- & The Giggler, basically smoke. Looked cool though! Made the top of the marmalizer look really nice.
I have my hopes high.

EDIT:
This was posted on May 15th. however i'm not sure wether the image has changed since then as when i originally looked i'm pretty sure it said 23 not 31 on the bottom left corner of the image

That has been on there for a long time I saw it a week or so ago before the original opening. It is a loose use of the term 'recent'.Phild94 wrote: JUST SPOTTED THIS ON ALTON TOWERS FB WALL..... not sure wether it is 100% reliable as when you click the link it sends you to 23rd..... but if you look at the picture......

Guys, it's official... the Smiler advert has FINALLY occurred during Britains Got Talent!! 
Hoorah.
Hopefully this could be a step up in advertising before an opening day soon!?
