Have to admit that I've done that! Got taken there by the grandparents. Butlins, Ayr, before it got done up.

[Bobby Connor]

Would have been around 1984 I think.

Unacceptable.

 

I went to Pwhellhi (or some similar random collection of letters) near Rhyl.

 

Would have been around the same time, I think.

 

Closest I came to being abroad until the mid-90s

[Bobby Connor]

The other ones looked a lot better in the brochures. All Ayr really had going for it was the 30CC bikes.

 

I stopped going in the arcade as the guy that swapped your pound notes for 10p pieces was creepy.

Train to Crewe, train to Bangor then Butlin's bus to Pwehelli.

 

Even went to llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch.

 

Mid 80's.

One of my vivid memories from being at Butlins in Ayr was this guy who had a Spider's web tattooed down the side of his face. It was very intimidating for a young highland boy. None of my dad's mates had stuff like that on their face.

 

What I didn't realise at the time was that he was just a weegie mink.

To head butt Glendale cheating minks who were time-wasting and only get 28 days was ok in the mid 80's.

You know me, i'll be surrounded by the uglies.

You're a braver man than me, I only ever take the piss out of Rocket when it's for mutual benefit.
