Media Event is not till 17th May so I think it's just because track construction is coming to an end.

Surely not until the ride is ready to open?

I'm sure they'll be hanging around, but they can probably start scaling down the operation now the bulk of the work is done.

See people, no need to panic afterall! To be honest, I am quite surprised that this was the first piece that needed more work! Well, that we know of anyway.

excellent news. And to finally close the chapter - any chance of a picture of the toilet block, showing whether or not they've 'raised the supports'? (I know they haven't, but others may need more convincing!)

So will it be all men working on the marmy or will the workers who fixed the 1st drop move onto the second or lift hill?

the track is not sorted yet, I'm sure it will be but I'm sat here watching them. It has been bolted in since yesterday but it still not married up. They are up and down on that cherry picker adjusting posts but it still ain't right.
