Me and Doomega braved it out in the cold and the snow at Thorpe Park, It was a rather entertaining, sadly one my favourite rollercoasters at Thorpe (Colossus) was unavailable due to the extreme cold weather. The Swarm and Nemesis Inferno started out on 1 train operation, and extended to two train operation at 11:20 and 13:00 respectively.
We managed to get a fantastic count on The Swarm, which we did a whooping 26 times, and 1 go on Nemesis Inferno, because we were committed to get a high count on Swarm we only did the two coasters. 10 of the 26 times were on the front row of The Swarm which is amazing, and the new near miss billboard is brilliant especially from the front row.
