:cry: Doodle Doo Derby in its former glory as it's the only Old MacDonald's Farmyard ride I didn't ride.

Black Hole and Submission. Black Hole get removed when I was 5 so I have no memory of it, but from what I've seen/heard it looked like a good ride with some good theming and Submission was just another ride in X-Sector and so I never went on it. I found that I couldn't be bothered to q for Submission when I could be going on the likes of Oblivion. Wish I had gone it now though just once.....
TH14TEEN

Personally, toyland tours. Looked really good, and love indoor /dark rides. I mean, hex features in my top 3 rides on park behind nemesis and th13teen :P

Wish I'd gone on black hole, had the opportunity on a Schools trip once but the group I accompanied was more bothered about the rapids and the thunder looper so never got chance and I really wish I had .

Corkscrew. I did the one at flamingo land, so that may say i did it?
Erm, change of plan, I prefer The Smiler. Rita's rubbish. Should have thought of that...

Scarefest 2016 hype is all gone... all because of Stan.H.

No, the at Flamingo Land has no connection to the Alton Towers one except it has the same layout. That like saying because you've ridden Rita, you've ridden Desert Race.

Not a ride, but I wish I queued for Carnival of Screams.
I love the mazes, but the queues for this were really long at the time of my visit!
