Saw Bob Monkhouse in 1972 very funny played football with good friends some of whom have possibly passed on such good memories

Thanks. Went there in '89 with my mum and brother. Almost exactly as I remember it. Not somewhere I would personally choose, but fun times nonetheless.

I auditioned for the talent show in the Gaiety theatre in 1995. Sad it was demolished, a great original Butlins building.

Did you go to Festival of the 60s on 4-7 March? I remember going along that Monorail, passing the Funsplash and feeling really frustrated at not being allowed to go swimming. Well, I've now been back, enjoyed some really great bands... and been swimming! At last!

Butlins was heaving back in the day. More recent videos show much less people

I went there in the sixties. The monorail was more fun than the fairground rides.

I remember that dragon roller coaster. The staff couldn't stop it once me and my family did about 30 laps hahaha scary when you think about it
