God I wish I could go back in time. You can see how much time has changed things and it's not for the good.

You can go back in time - go visit Porthcawl.

It was still great in the 1970's. One word - Thatcher.

Disneyland of South Wales loved Porthcawl in the early sixties.

I own still the flying saucer ride shown

[@joso7228]

It hasn't changed much since then. Chip Shops a bit more expensive.

Steven, do you (or anyone reading this) know the name of the gentleman who did the commentary for these videos? Purely a guess but probably a Porthcawlian and a memebr of Ye Pirates Club.

[@stevenlatcham2934]

Unfortunately I don't. 👍

If I discover the answer I'll let you know. 🥸@@stevenlatcham2934
