enfieldspares Posted August 29, 2020 Report Share Posted August 29, 2020 I used to go to Skeggy every year as a child in the early 1950s. Saw Freddy and the Dreamers play live there. And Sid James perform in a play at the Pier Theatre. Stayed two weeks at the Seacroft Hotel. It was magic. Took my son there in the 2010s. The place was dump. Fish and chip shops every ten yards, the pier only a third of the length it was not even reaching out to sea and the sea itself full of wind farms. Leicester folk now call it Skag-ness. I can but only agree/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only birthday with a nought on the end that meant anything to me was my 60th , I retired on that day and said goodbye to work for ever , the best decision I ever made , well apart from marrying my good lady Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very true, we went away to the Dominican republic in February once, only problem was coming back to the wet and cold , leaving it behind was great.

Two weeks guaranteed sun is better than 52 weeks guaranteed rain ☔️ seriously though after the game shooting season is over nothing better to look forward to than some winter sun ☀️ Edited August 30, 2020 by blackbird Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
