    Used to go to Rhyl every year for holidays as a kid in the 70s / 80s. Stayed in a hotel on Edward Henry St, top of the street was Black Cat Amusements (Mini Golf) in the video, crossed the road to the paddling pool with a fountain in the middle. Happy Days.

      Thinking back to what was popular back then, what do you think the now closed sea aquarium would be good to see in its place?

      @@outandaboutwithus oh I don't know, don't think the paddle boats, cycle track, trampolines or crown green bowling will make a come back these days. Although there was a open area where bands used to play near the clock so maybe a music venue.

      It was at the end of June on a Sunday at around 3pm. It has been an unbelievably quiet season unfortunately this year. Not sure where everyone is. Rhyl has so much potential and still holds it retro holiday feel that hopefully people still appreciate 🙏

      There is still plenty of reasons to visit, the beach is huge, beautiful sunsets, the harbour area. Cheeky donuts, a bag of chips and hit the 2p machines.
      It needs investment just like most places but sometimes appreciating the simple things is to easy and you can miss out ☺️

      I lived on the old pines caravan holiday park. It was mostly the flood victims living there, 88. I got to know lots of friendly people,
      I honestly wish I had never left, I landed there as homeless , but managed to get on my feet, got work, had prospects, I later had to travel back across the border, where to this day , I remain

      @@outandaboutwithus I’m not a native from Rhyl. I’ve been here 10 years but if people keep putting it down do you think the council or government will invest. No they will continue to send down and outs from strange ways. We need to start changing our ways before this town is on its knees and no one will come

    • @outandaboutwithus
      @outandaboutwithus  5 місяців тому +1

      @Ndev725 very well said. Exactly 💯. Completely agree which is one reason we try to make vlogs with a very positive feeling to the area.
      People who live here can't depend on the council to fix it entirely though which was our point, if you own a shop keep the pavement and shop frontage clean and tidy as if every one dis it would look immensely tidier.
      And residents/ holiday makers instead of walking past rubbish and complaining, pick it up and pop in the bin and lead by example 😊
