The Tower of Doom (Part 2)

Ok - Bounce climb completed, cables replaced and painting has commenced.

Rob Prickett, one of our ride engineers, bravely took on the task of 'spring cleaning' Bounce! At Oakwood everything is bigger and better and spring cleaning is no different - our type of spring cleaning involves half a mile of scaffolding, harnesses, hard hats and climbing endless flights of stairs. Of course, this is nothing for our hardened engineers, wearing pink marigolgs though is another matter!!!!!

The Tower of Doom ...

... well that's what the Bounce currently is to me as I prepare to climb the scaffolding to the top of it.

We've been planning to head up for a number of days but the wind, snow and rain over the last week have made it somewhat treacherous - this doesn't help one iota when you suffer from vertigo! Fingers crossed I can be brave enough!

LOADS of maintenance jobs going on at the moment - rendering buildings, replacing fences etc etc. Our maintenance manager is even attempting to cut out the silhouette of a rollercoaster on one of our fences - how artistic!

Recruitment is still ongoing - applications forms are still be accepted but hurry not long until our recruitment weeekend!

Canaston Bowl has got laods of fab events coming up - pre-valentine's day speed dating event and special offers throughout the 6 nations.
