Butlins

You'll get the gist quick enough. Feel free to vent about life's rich tapestry and how it pisses you off. But steer clear of other forum members or you will be the target of a virtual kick up the arse.

How do you feel about Haven? Better or worse than Pontins? Shane Richie started his career at Pakefield Pontins. Ironic that the site is directly opposite a massive council tip. I think the tip has been filled-in now, unlike Shane sadly. It has all those little chimneys in it to let the rancid gasses escape, much like when Richie opens his gob and sings. Richie reckons he shagged about 1000 women while at Pakefield, trust none of them were related to you Carlos ... at least to your knowledge?

Ha about Pakefield and Richie. Never been, Mike, to any other holiday camps, well since a kid. Only went there when nephew came up as near and cheap and the free sports.

And nope, no other relatives have been there so not near Richie.
Maybe she's born with it, maybe it's Maybelline.

Just been informed by Mrs blasé that I'm off to Butlins later this yearon a stag do booked two years ago interrupted by COVID, in keeping with what I've read in this thread I think my outfits may well be

Jack smethurst- Friday, a bit of light hearted racist banter to ease into the swing of things
Black and White minstrels - Saturday, it's just a bit of fun, and they were good singers actually
Bernard Manning - Sunday sexism and racism to ease my way into a massive hangover.

They played brass instruments, and they would slip surreptitiously into the ranks of marching bands during public parades etc, and start playing very loudly and out of time and out of tune, and the rest of the band would quickly descend into chaos. 8)
Rather like Kancutlawns in any given TF thread
Once they have started playing the wrong notes in the wrong time, they escalate the whole thing and end up screeching and blowing top notes furiously. Any similarity to other living persons is purely coincidental.

Once had a primary school trip to Warners Holiday Camp in Harwich. Only notable as the filming location of unfunny BBC comedy Hi-De-Hi. Spent a week there but can’t remember much about the trip other than the actual swimming pool used in the show. It was bloody freezing.

A few months ago I looked on Google maps to see if it was still there, it’s now a housing estate. Probably for the best in all honesty.

Maybe slightly out of date, BSB, but not unwelcome to some of the audience.

Drink, have fun and observe.

A report back is needed.

Err. That's old, old school. From my knowledge, weren't the blondes the sexy ones? And not Peggy? And Madoc just due to the accent and err older nature?
