the council need to give there heads a wobble, we all know the history behind the former council and how they neglected Rhyl. Its now a new council body right through, I hope they do the right thing and bring Rhyl back to what it once was, a thriving/busting tourist/holiday location that for many was once the "getaway" we all needed, at present its just an empty shell but full of memories....

Rhyl could be so good again, it still has a lot going for it, I just wish they had preserved more of it's history and not been so quick to demolish and redevelop everything.

I lived in Rhyl (viola avenue) when I was a good bit younger than I am now, i absolutely loved it there, Baron nights were at the theatre one time and I got up on the stage to sing with them, mothers insistence, I was very embarrassed but it was fun, another time rod or Roy hull was there and he asked for a woman who had lots of kids so I stuck my hand up and called out she has 12 (most were step kids) but it didn’t matter, so he threw her a prize, it was half pound of echo margarine, everyone laughed, I wasn’t forgiven that evening, Mother loved playing bingo and winning tickets for the theatre, I worked in the kitchen at shepards restaurant then did waitressing when they were busy, such lovely people who owned it, then went to work on the fair, geeing which was holding a top prize ( a huge teddy) so that people would see it and play the game I got £2 for each evening, I didn’t mind because I could hear great music being played, after that I worked on the beach with the donkeys, guiding children up and down the beach, it was great fun, my younger brother found an old broken pram and made it into a cart with fathers help, and he used to take peoples luggage from the railway station to the guest house where they were staying, such wonderful memories and Rhyl will always have a special place in my heart, such a shame that it has such bad reports these days. Thank you for the memories. ❤

They were good times, Rhyl in its day was a good place and holds special memories in many peoples hearts, most sadly now gone, I always wanted to create something to honour those people and the fabulous holidays and enjoyment it gave to those folk.

I remember when I was 17 back in the summer of 1966...me and two mates hitchhiked from Kirkby, Liverpool to Rhyl which was really lively back then...and after a night at the funfair it was time to find somewhere to get our heads down...my two mates had a sleeping bag each, and I never...But we decided to sleep on the sand dunes...I was tucked in between my mates all cosy in their bags but I was absolutely freezing!..I thought I was going to die so woke them up and we decided then to go on the parade and try and sleep in one of the open shelters there...we all managed to doze off...but suddenly I was awoken by a copper smacking me across my head with a heavy gloved hand...I thought my head had exploded!...He started yelling at us to get out of Rhyl ...and shouting “I don’t want you scum in this town!”....We were up and leggin’ out of there as fast as we could!....I haven’t been back to that place ever since.

Do you guys remember the smell of onions cooking, real candyfloss, or how about the sound of the clicking of the chain on the log flume..I'll never forget that sound. Did you ride one of the BMX bikes where the pavilion swimming pool used to be and later an ice skating rink ? Maybe you drank in the palace hotel? Or even rode the Monorail Leave your messages below..😊

I remember swimming in the open air lido down by the Pavilion area & to this day the shock i got when the water was salty as i was used to chlorinated baths water sticks in me mind. Also there was the seemingly huge glasshouses of the Botanical Gardens & inside I got my 1st look at the colourful blue + yellow Parrots which in the early 70s appeared so exotic in my B & W Tv days. Later in the mid 80s i visited the 2 nightclubs, 1 was the Kings downstairs at the Palace which was always rough & played alternative sounds but my favourite club was the Bistro mainly due to the little manager who sat at the foot of the entrance stairs passing judgement on who could enter. I very rarely saw or experienced trouble there even in mid-summer due to the vetting at the door & that club played indie sounds. I went once to the Orange Juice by the fair but it was like the wild West the night i went & i never went back.

The town is really nice, it's a really long street behind the prom called Mostyn street, it has everything you could need tbf, tesco, Sainsbury's, out door walking shops but more importantly lots of individual shops selling allsorts really, and overall it's a really nice smart safe area, really good for a browse/walk. There are lots of smart cafes and restaurants also. The nightlife is mixed really and probably most lively on a Saturday. There's some good pubs and restaurants near the pier end, a big wetherspoons called the palladium, which was an old theatre once. The bar I finish my video in is called the Irish bar, they had a live band on all Saturday night,which was very lively, which of cause I can't show due to copyright restrictions. Its's a very nice town with lots to do and see well worth a visit. Parking is £7 all day on the prom. There are frequent bus services to the surrounding areas and a train station.

Lol I've seen that so many times, my aunt was making a sandwich once, sitting on the benches by the pier, they swooped down and stole her whole bread roll..🤣 on a serious side though they are a danger, you have to be so careful.

I think sometimes you have to look through the layers of a place, I think your perception was true probably when the era it was built in existed, I think now its a place of peacefulness and calm for many, and probably just a good day out and away from the daily grind. Thankyou for your comment 👍
