bobbyshinton 59 Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 Does anyone on here go to Butlins every year? Went once it was brilliant in a cheesey sort of Boney M way. My mates knocked in to see the Dooley's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Face 29 Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 Loved it when I was 5. Went back when I was 12 or 13 and was disgusted. Couldn't have been done out since the 70's. Hovel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holden McGroin 4797 Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 I went to the Bognor Regis one when I was young un. Think I quite enjoyed it but as I am now a grown man with no kids....doubt it would tickle my fancy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jill 0 Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 My cousin and auntie used to go every year and I went once with them when I was about 11. It was a laugh, but I think that was mainly down to the fact that they knew others who went every year so there were loads of kids the same age to hang out with who my cousin already knew (which hepls because I'm shy ). Probably wouldn't have fancied it otherwise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catmag 336 Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 As a group of student nurses in 1996, my mates and I were desperate to go away on holiday but were absolutely brassic skint and there was no way we could afford to go abroad. We ended up collecting tokens out of some crappy tabloid and we went to Butlins in Pwllheli for a week for something ridiculous like £20. We stayed in the the absolute pits of their accomodation and it pissed it down for the whole week. It was cheesy as fuck and there was really bad cabaret every night, but we had a ball Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Y'know, hurtling through the air toward the ground; getting thrown about all over the cabin; all the mindless screaming; pieces of aircraft being torn off bit by bit. That sort of thing?

You do realise that Rob's gonna be all over your arse now with articles from Flight contesting your shit smell claims? I wouldn't shit myself if I was on a plane about to crash by the way.
