Just looking into a day out for everyone. Theres no confirmed day but if people leave rough times of when they would be available then we can get a day that would be best for everyone. Basically following on from the Thirteen At Alton Towers thread it seems a good idea to get everyone together from nationwide for a good day out. The idea i put forward would be to all meet up early at Alton Towers/ local service stations so we can be there for when it opens at 9 to give enough time to get most of the rides done before it gets rediculously busy and then just spend the rest of the day going on the smaller rides and generally chilling out and enjoying the day. Judging from the amount of people here with work/other commitments id say we should be looking around June time to give enough time for people to book it off work/save up/finish exams etc. Its best to go for a weekday aswel as its quieter. I also have a million 2-4-1 tickets so that should save people money. Its £30.40 a ticket but if you have the 2-4-1's you will be paying just £15.20 each. 
So if youre interested i just need dates around June time when you are available and roughly how many of you will be coming.  E.g. June 7th-21st, 4 people
Link to Alton Towers website.
Prospective date Monday 28th June. Any objections please let me know so another date can be arranged. We wont be able to accomodate everyone but it will be a date that the majority can come.

Same, it's hard enough getting decent attendance at a regional meet
Nathy mate, its a Corsa Sport meet, not necessarily a Corsas only meet

Unless you're a homo, then I'd imagine AT would be dead quiet.

The hotels are ace, but fucking expensive. You can fly abroad for a week for the price of 2 days there
Splash landings is awesome though Oh and as Dave says the all you can eat is fantastic.

Splash landings ftw Can't remember how much it cost now but it ended up costing each of us more because one person dropped out days before
