and each one has all the coasters, vital stats, etc...

Someday I have to get to Blackpool, it sounds so... wizard!

(...) I am, I had to be forced to go on my first rollercoaster by peer pressure - cheers lads! From then on I've had to go on every one I could - I still get scared but I know I#ll enjoy it so I override my emotions, this is what we have in the UK: (...)
