I've been on a lot of rollercoasters in my time but I'd say that the Dragon Kahn and the Stampida in Port Aventura, Salou were my favourites.

Nemisis also good at Alton towers.

Oblivion at alton towers was the most amazing piece of machinery i've ever been on.. my heart actually stopped for those few seconds when you're hanging over the edge peering down, with all that "Don't look down" crap in the speakers.. MAGIC...

Queues for it have more than doubled now though cause the Black Hole has been decommissioned (don't know why i loved it), so now Oblivion is the only big coaster in that area of the park.

I was on Nemesis within the first few weeks of opening way back in 94, queued for three hours with my dad but fcuking hell was it worth it, ended up sitting up front, took off my shoes, happy out...

Anyone else remember the Thunder Looper there, it was basically just one loop and you were propelled forward through the loop, then backwards through it, marvelous..

I love Alton towers, the haunted house is magic, remember the girl playing in the dools house? freaky

hopefully going to go back there before the end of the summer.

was in Parc Asterix in Paris a few years ago too, it has the biggest wooden roller coaster in Europe which was class, and there was a class metal coaster which went upside down far too many times for my stomachs liking..

Christ almost forgot Air at Alton, what a unique experience...
