Great video Andy, it’s been about 20 years since I was there
Thanks for watching. Thought it maybe of interest to people who hadn't been for a while (including myself). Pity I didn't have more time because there were other things I wanted to check out (like the high street, shopping, little markets, parks, and if they still had a model village.. 👍
@@britslivinginspain i can remember there being a pyramid back in the late 90s we used to go raving there and then it got closed down and moved to a place called the street, seams like a long time ago now
Nice video, it's great going round old haunts and reminiscing. I spent a lot 1977, doing a summer season at Butlins in Skegness with a band called "The Judy Blue Band" We did every Sunday, Mon, Tues at Skegness, Weds day off then Thu, Fri, Sat at Butlins in Filey. We alternated with a group called "Black Lace" who went on to represent UK in Eurovision and hits with Agadoo, etc. So I have great memories of Skegness and Filey. Enjoyed your tour with your Dad. Fish and chips looked good also.....
Thanks! As a kid we did Butlins at Skegness, Filey, Clacton on Sea and Barry Island. Skegby is the only one left.. and we didn't go that often as it was expensive (for us)- the caravans were relatively cheap and there were plenty in the village that were renting them out... thanks for watching.. 👍 (I did have a load of the X rated 12inch versions of most black lace songs from when I was a DJ...)
I remember Black Lace at Butlins Skeggy
Enjoyed this one Andy. Summer holiday memories from the 70s come flooding back. I went to the roller skating at Harrisons Arcade too 😂
Ha ha ha.. glad I wasn't the only one remembering the skate rink! Thanks for watching 👍
We used to go to Butlins nearly every year with various other grandparents aunts and uncles and cousins. Had great times there. Even took my kids when they were young. It looks like not only the monorail is gone but the chairlifts as well.
Thanks for watching- forgot about the chairlifts!
Never been but I did something similar to Scarborough some years ago when we lived in Yorkshire before we moved back to Scotland. It does bring back memories as I forgot that my parents always took us to see George Mitchell and the Black and White Minstrels( a different time the early 60s). Watching in Punta Prima waiting for the rain to go off.
Thanks for watching!- hopefully the rain is now over and done with...
Is it a coincidence that so many attractions are similar to ones here in the states especially at our state fairs. Except the Fish and Chips. It is good to come back to reminisce though
Thanks for watching. I think a lot of the rides tend to be made in mainland Europe (I think Netherlands and Germany are big manufacturing bases)- I bet the waltzer is getting on for 100 years old... hook a duck I've not seen for years! 😎😀
@@britslivinginspain Classic rides and games. Kids these days, can't relate to how it used to be. Glad it's still around.
Nice one Andy! Weirdly ive only been to Skeggy for the F1 Stock Cars, its always been straight to the stadium and back home again.
You'd love the chippy's!- thanks for watching 👍
Lots of memories. The Jolly Fisherman at the end, the icon of the town. Proper fish and chips (obviously Haddock, us from Grimsby won`t eat any other fish from a chippy) my last meal before moving to Spain.
Ha ha ha sounds like the last supper! Thanks for watching- thought it would interest a few people that used to go there when they were younger and to see changes. Pity I didn't have longer so I could have gone a bit more in depth...
@@britslivinginspain It kind of was, it`s one of the only things I miss about the UK, Lillian isn`t too fussed about fish and chips but then again she is a foreigner 😂😂
@@talesfromthecaveside 😂😂😂😂 we get it every now and then from Quesada fish and chips, but it's not the same/ as good...
And they have loads of games, you can get beer and food as well. Great fun if you like classic games.
It was always great- had my stag do there and spent many a weekend there, food and drinks etc. Always good 👍
@@britslivinginspain amazing place, the people are so friendly and lots to do, everyone loves the seaside. Ive never been spain i prefer holidays here, but spain has lots of english bars and fish and chips and lots to do as well i will assume, spainsh are laid back people and ive work with a few other here seem decent.
Spain is such a vast, diverse country it never ceases to amaze us. It also tends to have better weather 🌞
They still have outrun in some arcades in skeg, love the place go ever year, mum and dad had a van at ingoldmells,with 82 million investment put into it it has a great future fair is amazing as well so much to do going to retire there in 18 years im only 50 at the moment.
Wish I'd had more time to explore more.. thanks for watching and the comments 👍
