bored out my tree

the wife is obsessed with a **** hole called TKMax. everytime we go to Prestatyn i spend a ******* hour stood outside doing nowt. #hideous

 

No boozers open, pal?

Get thissen a pint

 

A visit to TKMax is number 2 on the interesting things to do, in the Prestatyn tourists guide.
Number 1 is watching the traffic lights change.

 

Wait while she comes out and spends another hour complaining about all the bargains they had that she she really liked but weren’t in her size!​

 

Find some grass. Watch it grow.
On no account should you enter the store to search for your wife. That way madness lies.

 

Followed by watching ice melt, then watching paint dry

 

What have they done to Rhyl went there as a kid massive fun fair.
Went there last week nowhere to be seen.

 

Was it busy? We stopped off at Rhyl for a sandwich 4 or 5 years ago en route to Bodnant Gardens. It looked like a lot of money had been spent on the seafront, but it was deserted at 10 am. Seriously spooky... like we'd wandered into a Twilight Zone episode. It was end of May too, so really odd.

 

Should have got thissen inside and bought some of them posh jelly beans or Italian biscuits

 

Rhyl the only place that makes blackpool look like Beverley hills

 

Rhyl.... Once spent a fortnight there one Sunday....or so it seemed....

 

No it was really quiet just though we,d go to see if it had changed from years ago.
First thing I noticed huge fun fair,used to spend hours in there when I was a kid.

 

I like slumming it ,rather go somewhere like that than abroad or cornwall which bores me shitless.

 

Bored out of yer skull.
FFS - I’ve been like that for months during this lockdown palaver.
Horrible !!!

 

Once spent a chilly November afternoon there watching Tarn fail to beat a team of plumbers and postmen.

 

An hr. try waiting for my mrs and daughter in law. To come out of primark. Especially that big bugger in Blackpool. Spent less hrs int bloody tower.
Then they come art wi Just a pair o’ 50p socks. Ffs.

 

We've had a few hours in Cleethorpes today with the family, it was chocka block, sun was shining, fish and chips we're crap, ice cream was expensive but at least we spent a bit of brass and that's what they need .

 

yes pretty much. bodnant gardens are nice

 

My parents second choice of holiday after Blackpool. When I was a kid . Went several times in the 60s. My worst experience ever on a holiday as a kid. Kept pestering mi dad. To go tut open air baths. He eventually caved in. Got inside, Dad dove in. Came out other side gasping for breath, blue with how cold it was. Got changed. Me still dipping toe in watter. Saying it’s too cold dad. “IT’s TOO BLOODY COLD. I’ve paid for us all to come in here cos o’ thee. Get in that watter, tha having thi bloody picture tain” made me swim a length. Couldn’t breathe. Me thinking I was going to die. “Proper dad.”
Sad to hear of it’s demise years ago. Hope they pull it round.
PS Why do women not worry how cold the watter is (especially int sea) compared to pappy buggers like me. Takes me five minutes to go through the pain barrier afore I feel comfortable.

 

We went to Prestatyn last year - it was almost universally the worst thing we’ve ever done as a family. Ever. Absolute hell hole. I’ve no idea what people do there for a week, a few days put me off for life.

We, in fairness, expected the Pontins site to be a bit rundown. But my god it was a filthy hole, purely nasty. We got away from it as much as was possible. But there isn’t really anywhere or anything else!

However, I had probably the nicest carvery meal I’ve ever had in the Cookhouse just over the railway bridge. Lovely meal and nice place. We also had a lovely fish and chips somewhere in Rhyl as well, can’t remember the name of the place, but they had on the wall they served the best in the world - I wouldn’t go that far but it was very good. Those two meals and the fact we saw a beluga flying low when driving back near the welsh English border were the only redeeming incidents!
