      I saw your comment, before watching. I was expecting something random, involving an actual seagull! 😂

    Sydney the Seagull keeping on riding like a champ was EXCELLENT
    I can imagine opening a ride would have been on your bucket list congratulations 🎉

      Would be very cool if Steven Seagull turned up to open it - may have been as the wearer of Sydney the Seagull costume.

    Also, I just wanna say that to see you being invited to officially open new rides is amazing and very well deserved for all you do for the UK Amusement Industry! 😊

    I got really emotional when you opened the ride, so lovely, then cried with laughter at you two riding the waltzer with Sid the seagull! 🤣 When you said it's the highlight of my career that finished me off! Not sure whether I was crying with emotion or laughter! 😂❤️ Brilliant! Xx

    Great vlog! I was working as a lifeguard on both days of the airshow, it was super busy so glad you got to experience the atmosphere of it all! Only thing you missed was the night flights, there's helicopters and planes shooting fireworks out - pretty epic to see! Either way, great to see you back in clacton!

    I haven’t seen a waltzer ride for decades. I thought they were all phased out. It’s nice to see they still exist. 😊

  • @needtlc
    @needtlc ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Great content as always. When you mentioned the looping star. I thought it was the one from margate- bembom brothers. Hence my first ever roller coaster. Would love to ride that again. 😀

  • @PatrickStaal
    @PatrickStaal ปีที่แล้ว

    I love how you plug new attractions. But honestly, it looks like Clacton Pier really cares about making all this work. And it shows.

    The Looping Star was my first ever roller coaster, at Butlins in Ayr back in the late 80s-early 90s... Don't know if it's the exact same ride because the trains look different but it's the exact same layout... ... It was the coaster that started it all for me... Thanks for the memories!!!

  • @richardjohn7991

    That was such a brilliant vlog was smiling throughout to open a ride then ride it with the park mascot is a rarity so funny the Jurrasic Pier took me by surprise looked so impressive for a seaside amusement park the fireworks were fantastic and themed to the war loved the narration and specially selected music never been before but looks so underrated would love to visit there one day

    Opening a ride, then riding it next to a seagull, and then to see the red arrows flying past later on. Thats a pretty classic day out! 👍👍 Have a brilliant , and safe trip out in the USA 🇺🇸

  • @robertgray1756
    @robertgray1756 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    What a great park !! Made your day sharing a ride with 2 Birds !! Lol. Double level Go Karts, like you say, very similar to the ones in Orlando Fun parks and better with wooden flooring and over taking allowed. Done the ones in Funspot Orlando 3 or 4 courses but concrete flooring and bit restricted on Speed. Looked great here.

    @graemecassidy5647 ปีที่แล้ว

    Great vlog. I've been visiting this pier since the 1970s, even, and never realised it would once again become as good as it is today. The animatronics on Jurassic Pier are fantastic. Being completely honest, I'd prefer it if it was just a walkthrough, with more herbivores such as stegosaurus and triceratops. Can't wait to see what they do next. Hopefully one day there'll be a great coaster on the pier. Imagine if they got someone like Gerstlauer to make a modern version of the Steel Stella!

  • @HarryLikesLambos
    @HarryLikesLambos 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

    went back to clacton pier for 3 days just got back as of typing this. and man, i forgot how addicting those gokarts were. roller coaster was very rough. and that turn after the loop is a shoulder/head basher

  • @DJSOfficialUK
    @DJSOfficialUK ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Another nice vlog from you both, really enjoyed and always 100% look forward to the next. Nice short shots of the RAF Red Arrows, they were down Folkestone last weekend, aswell Eastbourne, didn't go to display, but hoping to attend next year or sometime again in the future? Loved the look of the new indoor dinosaur themed attraction, looks like a lot of fun and sad that Aquarium has been removed as it was an ok attraction, could of added more to it, but I guess with it no longer there, its what it is at the end of the day. Nice fun game of adventure golf, both myself and my friend had a competition at Southend on Sea - Adventure Golf last year which was an fun experience. Need to edit and upload it at some point as filmed on Go Pro for that aswell including same in Hastings when down there. Good job at opening Waltzers, love them, rode one at Bluewater in Kent while at Winter Wonderland last year, was wild and really pushed it riders back massively into seat, but worth the thrilling experience. Nice video, vlog as always, cheers again and look forward to the next. 😀👍

    Just returned from Clacton Pier today - first visit in a few years and mightily impressed - I think the ride with the Seagull on the Waltzer should become a bookable extra... we will do the Jurassic experience, I came from 10 behind to beat Victoria on the brilliant golf. The East Coast trip has been great

    cant believe how downhill clacton has gone as a child i allways had 2places i enjoyed going clacton and southend but mainly clacton because i felt it had a bigger selection of rides to choose from but looking at clacton now and how much it has declined southend would be my first choice so much more at southend much more thrill rides and much more family friendly

    Great vlog TPW crew. Some great rides there in Clacton Pier and you even had the bonus of the Airshow and The Red Arrows. The Jurassic Park attraction was incredible a great visitor attraction. I haven’t visited the town for a few years I guess I need to give it a go sometime.

Good to see a full vlog from Clacton as you have only done brief vlogs before. Pity you didnt get your coaster creds from the other park, you will have to go back and get them.
