Skegness, Margate, Leysdown etc are all similar.. they're designed primarily for kids of all ages. There's something just magical seeing these places with arcades all lit up at night, with the smell of hot dogs, doughnuts, candy floss wafting around.. its not for everyone but kids don't judge things like cleanliness, food quality, etc.. As much as I love a nice foreign holiday in the sun, with a spotlessly clean pool, there's still something special about going somewhere like Skeggy with everything a kid could ever want!!

Where but the UK would you have a statue to a famous railway travel poster? John Hassall created ‘The Jolly fisherman’ in 1908 for the Great Northern Railway to promote Skeggy. It shows a fisherman skipping along the beach, with the slogan "Skegness is so bracing". The other thing you need at Skeg is binoculars - the best way to see where the sea is at low tide. Used to be described as Sheffield or Nottingham by the sea, as it was the main seaside destination from both cities.

There was a gorgeous model village once, a long pier with theatre at the end, a nineteen twenties huge swimming pool with grass surrounding it, the boating lake was better prior to its demise, you could get jugs of tea under the pier, the waterway was so good, there were two theatres quite grand, ditto a cinema, two free paddling pools one of which was saved due to outrage at it being proposed to be taken by the greedy developers, check ot The Fairy Dell. As for the rest of it they paved paradise and put up a loud, garish mess.

The chips were ONCE edible and freshly chipped and the fish top notch, all to be found on chip alley. I hate the sickly smell of stale cooking oil! Locals would opt for the ones done in beef dripping. The rock always came with a picture of skeggy inside the pack.I liked the aniseed or pink mint. I do not rate the modern changes. I love those shops selling buckets and spades, blow up beach balls and boats for the bath as a grown up. My son loves candy floss, for me warm donuts. At the fair which was Bottons was a stand selling little dishes of fresh seafood, lush with a dash of vinegar. and the tunnel of love was handy for a cheeky snog!

You're totally right haha, if you think about it longer it definitely sounds bad 😂 But the whole atmosphere at Skeggy is quite distinctive - a bit kitsch and a bit nostalgic - so even naming the funfair like that didn't surprise us lol Although there are plenty of fish & chips shot around I would have guessed that some of them would be average and highly overrated which is a bit disappointing.... We always try to find cool spots before filming, but they're often not in the centre of things, so not everyone wants to go off the main streets - we didn't mind, because if you want quality it's sometimes nice to pick a specific spot 👍 Maybe next time you could visit Seaview Fisheries then!

The best sweet treats are raw organic chocolate like Halo bars..Holland and Barrett sell them…which are sweetened with organic coconut sugar …good for your health and the best taste of real chocolate that snaps when you break a piece. The best pop is kombucha …make sure it’s authentic ..I get it in glass bottles and it has the ‘mother’ left in it …the culture ..the funny looking stuff ..can’t remember the exact name but it means it’s good for your gut. Anything in cafes etc are cooked in vegetable oils that are extremely clogging for the arteries and heart ..a health hazard.. as are all refined sugar products …especially rock.

You mentioned to the lady at the doughnut stall about possibly changing the name of your channel. I have thought for a while you should change it to "Jay and Karolina".
@JayandKarolina5 ай бұрын
We’ve been talking about it the other day but not sure yet if we want to change the channel name or not :) Karolina likes to do the behind-the-scenes tasks but she’s becoming more confident on the camera too so will see what makes the biggest sense 🙏
