Early family outing to Skegness....Uncles Aunts Grandparents cousins..all went for the day by train..about 1950........ Me with my Grandad and Uncle Sonny riding pillion........

Perhaps the original Figure 8 at the South end was moved to the North end to make way for the Wild Mouse?

Well at least you can see the sea, did you go down "fish n; Chip" ally for your fish n chips or call at the Linger/longer.

We had a friend who would aways call at the Linger/Longer every night, and he would say "if Fred serves me i can get down to the Ship pub, but if his missi's servers you get less chips as you only get to the garage on the corner just befor the ship. 

 

Must admitt missed bowling at Skeg this year.

CF, that plateful would do for the two of us ! Especially with the addition of a slice of bread and butter, plus a cuppa tea.

The only good thing about Skeg is over 50 bowls week when you won single's pairs. or trips you also had a Jolly Fisherman figurine but alas the lady who made these figures passed away. So for a couple of years they were missing but now there back you cant keep the Jolly Fisherman figurine down for long.

One other silly thing that the council have done is sold the south green off and a hotel is now built there, lets get rid of thoes bowlers the hotel makes us more money/

If any of you are interested over 55 bowls week is from 19th June then they normally have the Nationals comps  then in September just another good week of bowling.
