I have lots of memories of Joyland (forum i believe its called these days) was a good arcade but also a handy shortcut. Anyone who remembers the place in the early 80's will remember that the middle part used to have one of them air gun games where you shoot the targets and it squirts water at you, the carpet in the centre always used to be sopping wet, no wonder there was never many machines in the middle back then. They also used to close the middle and bottom (seafront side) off in the winter to cut operating costs.
i remember the air gun game your talking about, the one with the freaky hill billys. i also remember the arcade starburst and there used to be peter browns at the seafront end.
well if your counting bowling and bar areas forum wins it hands down. it also has full size ten pin bowling and utopia night spot upstairs and then dont forget the newly built casino and the casino bar at the seafront, which used to be an arcade owned by corrigans till noble bought it and knocked it all into one.
yep its still open, but its now also part of the nobles empire. not being byass living in brid but i'd prob agree in saying forum is one of, if not the largest arcade in yorkshire.
I have an african grey parrot called "Tickle" he is so funny & can say his name and lots of others and doe's chicken noises,cat noises & he tells my mrs maria to shut up and calm down.so funny & cracks me up.
i also have african grey. she's called mitzy. i got her at 15 weeks old and on the 16th march she''ll then be 1. i love the way she is with me, absolutely soft as shit couldnt have asked for a nicer bird. apart from me tho she wont let anyone else near her, she just fluffs up and goes into attack mode. she's bitten friends a couple of times (they were warned!)
i'm told they live to be 50+ so she was well worth the 700 quid i paid for her
