    Mrs Richards: "I paid for a room with a view !"
    Basil: (pointing to the lovely view) "That is Torquay, Madam."
    Mrs Richards: "It's not good enough!"
    Basil: "May I ask what you were expecting to see out of a Torquay hotel bedroom window? Sydney Opera House, perhaps? the Hanging Gardens of Babylon? Herds of wildebeest sweeping majestically past?..."
    Mrs Richards: "Don't be silly! I expect to be able to see the sea!"
    Basil: "You can see the sea, it's over there between the land and the sky."
    Mrs Richards: "I'm not satisfied. But I shall stay. But I expect a reduction."
    Basil: "Why?! Because Krakatoa's not erupting at the moment?"

    Nemesis is dark, scary, and brooding. Whereas Toyland Tours is cute, adorable, and fun.

    Theinfocoaster I’m not been rude but when Congo river rapids opened in 1986 it wasn’t called that it was called the Grand Canyon rapids but in 1992 Katanga canyon opened so I was changed to Congo river rapids

    Does anyone remember a crooked house walk through? I remember a "house that jack built" with uneven floors and walls, moving sections, dark areas, mirrors but I never see it mentioned in videos or lists of attractions. I'm sure it was down near the left of the lake.

      I think it's one that the younger you ride the better the ride.
      Now As a full grown adult it's massively disappointing. But as a 15/16 year old that hadn't been on many coasters it was truly amazing!! (It may of even been my first coaster....)
