STEVE HOWARD Posted December 23, 2018 Report Share Posted December 23, 2018 On 04/11/2018 at 21:50, Bagpuss said: Just returned from a few days away with the Kids in Great Yarmouth. Used to go here every year with my parents, sometimes twice a year. There were hundreds of arcades in holiday camps, sea fronts. Gorleston, Caister, Hemsby, California - all with magical memories. Track and field, Ghosts and Goblins, Gaplus, Boot Hill, Rescue, Super Sprint, Rainbow Islands, Mad Planets - All bring back vivid thoughts of a certain arcade, at a certain time, with a certain person. Anyway, it breaks my heart to see the familiar arcades of the 80's changed into ticket vending places - not a retro machine in site. Played an Each way Shuffle by Ace that had been updated but, after £1, I gave up. I need to go to Arcade Club in Bury theres probably loads of people with the nickname bagpuss, I only know one, are you the bagpuss that lived in north wales near rhyl?

Wizard is about to die... Surely is one of the most well known sounds from video games of the 80s. Edited February 24, 2019 by wearecity 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
