    Thank you Andy for this Vlog. Its was for me a good remember to see PB. I was living in Norwich 2003-2005. A few things changed there, but the Rollercoaster is still there and one of my favorite Woddies.

    the amount of times i went on the log flume in the summer in the evening, soaking wet and awsome times =) used to love it when the lights at night were lit up on the top of it

    I grew up in great yarmouth and would go to the pleasure beach a few times every summer holidays. I loved the log flume and was always confused when i went on log flumes at other parks and the water wasnt salty! Sad to see it so empty really, when I was a kid there was always queues, especially for the log flume (making full use of that huge space!) And the roller coaster! (I'm only 25 so it wasnt all that long ago haha). I always wanted to go on the go carts but my mum would never let me as they cost extra, where the twister is there, is where the waltzers were for years and the twister used to be next to the Caterpillar coaster. Probably been a good 6 years since I last went, hopefully once this pandemic is over I'll have the chance to go again when i next visit my parents, so many good memories!

    Hi Andy I'm pretty sure the log flume was built about 1990 I remember going with my mum for a holiday and going on it . I've been on it a good few times and always got soaked. I just love that rollercoaster it was my 1st ever I went on it with my late Mum and Dad when I was 7 back in 1977 . I sat in between them both and from that day I was hooked on coasters. I have now took my daughter on there it makes 4 generations who rode on it as my Nan did to . Thanks for sharing with us such happy memories. Love to you as always love Tracey xxxxxx

  • @traceybeerling4776
    @traceybeerling4776 6 років тому +8

    I remember the coaster having mountain theme when I was a child and the giant from Jack and the beanstalk where the baby giant is outside the coaster . Great vlog Andy xxx

  • @beachlife2968
    @beachlife2968 6 років тому +3

    Had many great caravan holidays on the south denes in the 80s. The pleasure beach was buzzing then as footfall used to enter from the bottom as well from the caravans and the mid 80s was the golden age of the arcades for me. The log flume used to be the boating lake . Without looking it up i would say the log flume replaced in 1990 ish

    Just got back from yarmouth and went to pleasure beach all day Wednesday and went on whirlwind for the first time and the first thing I said was it really intense for a kids ride, really enjoyed it I went on it three times

    • @Coaster_Crazy
      @Coaster_Crazy  6 років тому +1

      NintyGuy999 Whirlwind is a brilliant little coaster and tbh it’s more of a family ride than a kids rides as most small children are hardly sat in the seat properly if you noticed the lap bars don’t touch them ! I’m a big lad (17st) and fit on it perfectly

    • @NintyGuy999
      @NintyGuy999 6 років тому +1

      Coaster Crazy yeah I'm 6'4 and 15 stone and I was more comfy on whirlwind than most of the 'adult' rides 😂

    • @Coaster_Crazy
      @Coaster_Crazy  6 років тому +1

      NintyGuy999 it’s weird isn’t it lol ! I actually fit better on Whirlwind than I did on Kumba at Busch Gardens Tampa Florida lol and tbh there isn’t actually that many rides I don’t fit on

  • @gavinwolves2528
    @gavinwolves2528 6 років тому +13

    Makes me sad when I see the end of the park where the twister is... as it used to go back much further and had a massive water chute ride there, plus a pirate ship and magic carpet side and cine 180 at one point... happy days!

    • @keunkkum3168

      Sam Hardwick I wasn’t slagging it off, just saying we won’t be going back anytime soon, our visit last year wasn’t very good

      I went this year to Plesurewood, the pirate ship only went half height, Fireball only went full height for one swing, rides have been removed, wasn't very impressed

      It’s not rubbish it’s a classic and tbh most UK ghost trains don’t have anyone jumping out at you, the ones on Europe are just crazy

      firework crazy I have American subscribers so it’s good to call them both names, thing is if I say Wacky Worm 🐛 you know what I mean and they are technically both called Big Apples and Wacky Worms
