Europe is drowning

Wtf that looks like it's going to b a problem for the local residents 😢😢😢

I've seen more life in a graveyard

The 'early era' footage brings back many happy memories! My parents, grandmother and I drove from South Wales to stay for two weeks a few summers around 1970. Besides the pools (the indoor one incorporating underwater windows so those in a lounge below the pool could sit and look into the water), paddling fountains, chairlift, monorail, etc., I remember how clean and well-maintained the entire site was at that time. Even now, as I approach my sixtieth birthday, I also recall the flower beds. Where have all the intervening years gone?!

Omg also you’ve dropped a pin 📌

Also 360

Just to frighten yourself, and feel glad you don’t live there!

I went there

WHEN I WENT 2024 FEBUARY 6TH WHEN I SAW THE GATES I WAS LIKE 😱

We visited in 1987, the place was an absolute tip, dangerously dilapidated and should have been condemned. It was not fit for habitation. In the end we sued to get our money back. I'm sure it's very nice now, but back then it was the holiday from hell.

Did you spend any money?

Total shithole!

Gem!?!? It’s a shothole 😂

....... a Japanese tourist from 1966? 😂

Replied to your message mate but has it gone onto someone elses messages ? lol just check i.m using my phone so its a bit fiddly and awkward cos i don.t have a PC anymore now lol.

No mate i still can.t think of what it was. a very oldish christian name i think it was. no i haven.t found out how many ex bosses from there are still about. if there are any they are knocking on a bit now 40 years down the line lol. dave h.

You have to book the swimming pool

They are standard vans pay gold you get in the van from 12noon

When the weather is good ..no place on earth can beat the uk seaside resorts!! Great yarmouth no exception.

lol he was hilarious he used to brag about being the champion bonker on the camp for many seasons. all bull it was and tosh. he musta thought i.d arrived in an as cracker.

Staying in the same hotel in September What is the all inclusive rules do you know 🤔

Shout out to the arcade that had the star wars and firefox sit down cabinets.

What was cuthberts first name mate. the big scots guy. personnel boss lol. ? i think he.s dead now

Remember a guy called mike who helped out on security for quite a while down there. average height beard quite stocky apparently he was a jeweller from cardiff or so he said. he helped out on poppers later on too in 89. but when i asked him what he actually did he said well i.m a womanising con man if you really want to know lol. got be in his 80s now if he.s still alive lol. apparently was as hard as nails but he didn.t look it. well not to me anyway lol. 😂😂

lol yes very true. i would probably be same if i was there now turning the clock and it was all a holiday centre again. but at that time i guess i was quite shy and introverted i only changed from that in the early 90s. the place there had an awe about it somehow a type of old and new sort of feel. when it was buzzing with holiday makers it was a super sight. yeah the bosses were pratts really and walked and strutted about in their suits. that kenny roberts was a right pillock lol. what was alan holts missus name i.m trying put a face to her. musta seen her a lot on there if she was on security too because i did portering etc i saw a lot of the security staff on their patrols lol. 😂😂

Alan do you know where all the bosses are now that were at barry island.? andy jamieson camp general manager. and the miserable kenny roberts asst boss. graham simpson. chris ulliot catering bosses. some may have passed away by now. there was also bill in the stores. and jim grimes bars manager. and dave cooper boss of all the cleaners. no end of names still come to mind from down there.

Thanks for reply alan well my first season there was 83 so i.d just missed you i guess. yes thats right alan carr was the geordie and very strict and quite rufty tufty too and he stand by the staff chalets and told off anyone who was noisy they.d be sacked if they weren.t quiet lol. alan holt was big and stocky and reminded me of a c.i.d officer lol. he took over from mr hougadi who died on the centre in 83 he wasn.t that old i don.t think. there was also george bewley also from staffs same as me he did security in 83 and he was a tough nut aswell apparently. hands like dinner plates. and there was phil dibble was it who worked for the vale of glamorgan security staff in 89.

It’s a really nice place there 😃also I get to go there tomorrow

Yeah i agree its all to do with money and finding some good alternative compatable sites. if they thought a bit more the vale of glamorgan council they could have had a smaller holiday site coupled with a theme park or something. they just don.t think at all its all an erratic whim they act on with no directional sense at all. typical thick as a brick council.

Should have been done up and maintained properly cos a lot of people especially students relied on the summer employment there too. councils are so mutton headed they simply do not think logically at all. buffoons of the highest order. pratts and idiots full stop.

Yep absolute mindless stupidity. councils and govs are obsessed these days and that was 20 years ago with building houses on any land they can get hold of they are worse than ever now present day. those houses on that site will not last 30 years i.m sure of it. materials these days are complete rubbish. vale of glamorgan council should have retained it as a holiday centre come theme park. total disgrace seeing it like that. they want stringing up. 😡😡😡

So the upper floor has a staircase 😮

Palia sa coma playa looks very bester 🥰

I grew up here, this is a Rissaga, they are not uncommon.

My childhood holidays were spent here twice a year for years.

Hi there, many thanks for the video - really useful. We go to Cala Millor next week and it would help to know if there is a laundrette in the area.
