This is a short family home video shot on cine film. I post it for nostalgic and history reasons only but it may be of interest to those interested in the simple pleasures of the 60s.

During the early 60s I lived in Lowestoft which was about 5miles along the coast . In the Summer Yarmouth was the place for us teenagers to go at the weekend, in the winter it was like a ghost town but pure magic in the holiday season.

What a perfect song to add, 'Wonderland' by the Shadows, so perfectly evocative.

I still go here all the time. I’m only 13 but going to the beach and getting the sweets and ice cream will always be a fond memory for me :) nice to see the small changes

That roller-coaster has not changed one bit. Even has the same trains running round it!

It was 1962 as we did not start to wear the blue jackets as our uniforms till then.

Last time I visited Gt Yarmouth just for a day out was over 20 years ago. (I lived in Norwich at that time) I sat alone on the beach with a bunch of Blacks playing football on one side and a bunch of Indians playing cricket on the other. I didn't mind. Like diversity. Hear it's full of junkies now.

Lovely video, I live near GY and was born there. Those young men at 1:21 on the moving conveyor at the Pleasure Beach were about 20ish at the time if this was 1961/1962, so they would be in their late 70s or early to mid 80s now.

What is the yodeling song towards the end? It's instrumental backdrop seems to be Wonderland by the Shadows but the words are quite intriguing - and Wonderland is an instrumental track.
