# I like Mablethorpe because it is bad, but it always was........
it is a time warp, really not changed since the early 70's still got the same old 50's and 60's slot machines and games...

# We used to have family holidays in Mablethorpe in the 70's!
Golden Sands caravan resort, if I recall correctly

# We weren't well off enough to actually stop in Mablethorpe, we used to stop in Sutton on sea and travle the mile or so to get there...
You remember the cowboy manikin that you had to draw against then! in the arcade on the corner..

# I really don't remember much about the place
just that the sand used to fucking sting your legs when it was windy. And it was ALWAYS windy.

# I can't say I've ever been
but judging by your description, there's still a few places in Wales like that, really old game machines. The caravan site I'd stay on had an original Pole Position machine inside... probably still has.

It's not a bit like Blackpool, where everything is pretty much new. I'd never stay there though.

# I like it for the nostalgia, reminds me of being young.....
Its most unique feature is the smell!

Last time I went to Blackpool wasover 10 years ago.... I can remember how dirty it was!

# ^
Blackpool looks like the inside of a tramp's shopping trolley and smells like a chipshop worker's bumcrack

# I was last in Blackpool about a year ago.
Preston being relatively close to it, I thought 'why not?' and went to see what had changed.

I spent most of my time in Coral Island anyway.

# If that's the fun fair....
I freaked out on a ride called the haunted swing...

# Coral Island's a bit closer to the tower.
I was going to go to the fair, but couldn't be arsed in the end. I've still yet to go on the Big One.
