OMG REALLY? I go there every year and that's like the only one I've been to, apart from Pleasure Island in Skegness and Pleasure Island in Cleethorpes but the latter was when I was extremely young.

I got a weekly wristband last year and I found it amazing for value, went on over £60 of rides on the final day which was the amount of the wristband.

Anyway, what is your favourite ride? I remember going on the Techno Frog one and someone shouted 'SAMANTHA' and it was my friend from High School as she's moved there/works there. It's a great theme park and I will say amazing confusion and rhombus rocket is my favourite rides. I didn't used to go on big rides so my sister pulled me onto the odyssey (I always like it as it was opened on my birthday) and ended up getting a black eye with it but I still go on it.

I also loved the volcano ride there despite my sister saying 'don't worry the ride hasn't broke in two weeks' etc.

Anyway, I love the market too, we often get posters, shoes, games, magazines everything there. We go there 2 weeks each year and stay in a caravan so we usually go on the rides a lot.

To be honest, because I live in Skegness I just go when I can be bothered haha. Although it's never as good as when my Dad's down and goes with me cause he knows literally everyone around here. So when the ride ops see him, that means everyones in for a mad ass ride. That one that used to hang you over the road near the volcano was my favourite but I think it's gone now.

Not been in about 2 years and since the sale of the site to the new owners they've added a few new rides.

Bottons pleasure beach in Skeg has had some new rides too, however the Surf Rider was dismantled after a major accident it had earlier last season. Which was previously my favourite ride even if it did feel unsafe.

Ah G-Force, unfortunately I was only 8 when that was dismantled I think and the rides are great there even though people operating the Beast didn't believe I was 16 when I wanted to go on.

I read about that being dismantled, I never went on it when I went, I prefered the mega rider or whatever it was called .

Sadly it crashed as a cog slipped, manufacturing error although Jimmy Botton refused to run the ride again and demanded it was taken away. He closed the site for the duration of the HSE investigation out of courtesy of those who were riding it at the time (21 if I remember rightly).

To date I don't think he's put anything back it it's place but I'm sure it will come soon enough.
