    Not been to a themed weekend but had a 4 day break with the wife and kids at Skeg in June. First class facilities but the standard appartments are poor.

    Had a themed fortnight there in 2001

    Family holiday. The theme was 'the worst holiday of your life'.

    Worst bit was I had to miss a work trip to Munich for some Germany v England match or other. Just as well it turned out to be a **** game!

    ahhh the famous 5-1 drubbing.

    Still, a pint of dodgy Double Diamond in the Pig n' Whistle more than made up for it I expect.

    Went to Butlins, Skegness in 2005 for an 80's revival and was an absolute blast.

    Accommodation basic, but drunken guests started running naked between chalets and people throwing buckets of water on them.....

    Normally quiet but it made a very cold October night funny!
