Never been skegness one but if i remember minehead butlins the arcades were full of

monopoly, snakes and ladders, cops and robbers, also had a hulk there with working rumble start button :jiggy: They liked the bellfruits.

Can also remember seeing lots of gimme gimme gimmes too.

Bearing in mind this was a good 3 years ago so i expect it's full of noel now :cool:

the arcades are ok and there meals are shite tbh best bet would be to take
ya own grub or eat outside the camp.

jamespir might be able to give u a better idea of butlins as he has worked at one (so heclaims) :p

I went last year and thought it was Brill! The arcades are ok there is a few new machines but if you like the older ones then its good, The food i thought was good for the money i paid, It is however a self service but theres loads of choice. also theres loads to do i recommened it.

I worked at butlins in skeg :biglaugh: I personally think its not to bad. I worked there for one season and enjoyed it. There are about 3 arcades to play in. The best is the one inside the skyline, there is a few machines in there. Family wise you have ingoldmels which has loads of stuff to do and there is a big market there too.
