Thorpe park and stash spending!

Few things to update on!

On friday we went to Thorpe Park, my bravest and longest journey driving so far! We made it in one piece without getting lost or having too many problems. It was a very miserable grey day, but the park was pretty empty so it was better for rides and queuing. We went on Stealth first, which is awesome! Steven wasn't very keen, but then it does go from 0 to 80mph in 2 secs, or something like that, and propel you up a vertical tower, over the top and back down again! I loved it!



Then we done Nemesis Inferno which is also good fun, we walked more or less straight on!



We then went to Colossus which left my head feeling a bit rattled from all the loops!







We then done X:\ No Way Out and Loggers Leap. We got a bit wetter than expected on Loggers Leap, but there was no queue at all so we went on it again right after!



We went on the Rumba Rapids then, which felt like quite a comedown after the big adrenaline rides! We looked quite funny, two people in a 6 person boat, sitting opposite each other in the rain!




I then went on Samurai and Vortex, both spinning rides. It was a shame because some of the newer rides that I've never been on before were shut for the day.






And as you can see, the rain didn't hold up! Got rather drenched, but we'd been on everything we wanted by 2pm so we headed to the car, warmed up and came home.





Was a really good day out despite the rain. Came home and done some scrapping too!



Then yesterday went to the Ally Pally which was good fun! Had a bit of a spending spree, although stayed just within my budget. Got some new banana frog stamps, some heidi swapp foam stamps, some new blonde moments, piggy tales and dream street papers, some embellies and some new journaling stamps. Think thats everything! Will post a picture later when I get the chance. And here are another two layouts I made yesterday, one just needs some spellings checked before its finished.
