I would if I could but I can't drive yet, then I would need to get a day or two off or sumthin. You'd have to get the drinks too, I'm only 20. But all those things satisfied, I would come probably.
Heh

lol, America, lol. I was gittin' tha fookin' drinks in with ease from age 15 onwards. I've only been ID'd once actually, aged 19 funnily, in some tourist pub in Cornwall, but I did have retarded raver hair at the time.
Of course, when I visited the States a few months ago, I managed to forget to bring ID the first time I went to a pub (sorry, bar), but amazingly managed to get away with it, through a combination of pleading ignorance, coupled with the fact that the friend I was with had ID and was about 35.
One of my work colleagues is in his 50s and was on a similar trip to the States. He told me he was rather flattered when they asked him to produce his ID at a bar.

Also wanting to go to Alton Towers, Nemesis rocked.

Haven't been there for about eleven years, but have to agree with czg, Nemesis is fantastic!
Oblivion Was Cool Too

Why are all you foreign people coming to England!?
P.S. Nemesis, awesome, hadn't been on a proper roller-coaster ever, and had only been on half-arsed Disney ones a decade or more ago. Did Nem as the first one of the day, bloody hell, can't actually remember anything as my brain couldn't keep up, but it left me with jet lag =).
Hmm

Sounds good. I'd be up for it assuming it doesn't clash with my hideously busy summer.
(I'm lying of course, my only plans are for Glades in a couple of weeks and I don't have a job)

I have to knock the level of the conversation down a notch or two to say this (and don't I always?) but:
NEMESIS 0WNZ J00!
I also really loved the Thunder Loopa single loop coaster next to the Nemesis, but I think it's been removed in the last few years. It was highly prime and the ride time was about the same as queue time (i.e. the queues were really short.)
I haven't been to Alton Towers since they built the Oblivion and certainly wouldn't mind going again if I get the chance sometime.
I have to say though, I've been on a couple of very fine rollercoasters since Nemesis, so Alton Towers better have installed some good stuff since my last trip.
So
