Morning all

We're off to Thorpe Park for a day next week. Is it worth getting a Fastrack ticket, or will it not be busy enough during a weekday to need it?

Are the kids off school? If not I wouldn't bother with fastrack. I went last september when they'd just gone back to school and the queues were 15mins max for everything except Saw and that was only 40mins.

I went last month and it was the same story.

Don't bother with fast-track at first if the kids are at school, you can always go back and buy it!

Cool thanks for that. We're closing the office for the day and taking all the staff there. Should be a laugh.

as others have said i wouldnt bother with a fast track midweek outside of half term..

it may be a little busier as some of the uni students and GCSE students may have finished school but i doubt it will be heaving!!

Enjoy yourselves, it'll be a blast!

Play it by ear,we went a couple of weeks ago and ended up getting them when the ques for a few of the popular rides hit an hours wait.

I would always get the fasttrack tickets.

Even during term time there seem to be huge swarms of little oiks on 'learning days' school trips.

I hate queuing with chavs as much as they hate queuing with grumpy old geezers.
