Belgian coaster enthusiasts continue to get spoiled for seemingly no particular reason

[Attraction Source @AttractionSc]

(1/2) Today, Walibi Belgium has announced the transformation of Werewolf into a new hybrid roller coaster developed in collaboration with Rocky Mountain Construction!

My flat is currently 29 degrees C. Bros, I am in hell.

@thecaseybyrne It's not that there's anything wrong with the station, per se. But my last job multiple projects were either in Reading or nearby, and since I was constantly travelling from Manchester it became kind of inescapable in my life lol. That said the MAN > RDG direct service is horrid

[Sam W @SamMarkWill]

New job, new life, but still Reading station haunts me

[Sam W @SamMarkWill]

One element of my job I was not warned about in advance was the remarkably high levels of exposure to Reading station

Solid effort for today's cook - spiced chicken thighs and parsley couscous

More freshly edited China pics - this time from Jiuzhaigou National Park 🌊

Between All Speeds just reopening, and this being on the verge of opening now, I visited China at the ideal time to miss out on Intamin creds lol

Witness the sad and inevitable result of your politics having zero appeal to ex-theatre/ex-choir kids

This is the first time I've seen a performance of 'You'll Never Walk Alone' in which every member of the band is playing and singing in a different key.

I do firmly believe that Burnham is Labour's best (and possibly only realistic) hope of turning things around with the electorate. He's done a great job in Manchester. Fingers crossed for a successful by-election 🤞

@TPNBen Love that 2nd shot!

@cupcake_coaster Even rarer to get an actually sunny day in Chongqing! For me the only thing that got spited by rain in this part of the trip was the official drone show lol

[Sam W @SamMarkWill]

Currently in the midst of the herculean task that is sorting through 1000+ China photos - here's a few snaps from Happy Valley Chongqing, a surprisingly strong park where I rode another stand-out GCI and my first Chinese B&M wing 🎢

As ever in UK politics, feels like it's been a rough night for anyone vaguely Left leaning. Labour look like the big loser tonight, with Reform making huge gains (though Greens seem to be doing well). One can only hope Reform's shambolic work in local gov hurts their GE chances

Apparently half of London went and got lobotomised whilst I was in China because this has now happened to me two days in a row. Walk CONTINUOUSLY on the left, people!

[Sam W @SamMarkWill]

On my hands and knees begging London Bridge Jubilee line users to walk CONTINUOUSLY when they are using the left side of the escalator

[Sam W @SamMarkWill]

Missed all of @thejazzemu alas, but @TWRPband killed it as ever

[Sam W @SamMarkWill]

NSP queue is crazy - probably gonna miss Jazz Emu's entire set because of the security :(

And so another (mostly) fantastic Chinese trip comes to an end - 3 new cities, 21 new coasters, and a whole lot of great memories 🇨🇳🎢

[Sam W @SamMarkWill]

So funny story... I trekked like an hour to go watch this show just to find out they had MOVED IT FORWARD AN HOUR AT ZERO NOTICE and it had already happened. Truly the most China way to end a trip - miscommunication and arbitrary decision-making

LIVE: Drone Light Show Tonight, Chongqing’s sky is lit with a grand drone show. Hundreds of drones paint the night with light, weaving stories of grit, care, and every drop of sweat. https://t.co/ZaQf7FR8Lb
