Such Memories. I grew up in Southend in the 60's. Peter Pans has changed a lot. The little train with the spinning carriages that can be seen in the film was my favorite! The slides was the one my sister and me played on while my mum watched us. The Crooked House too. The Jungle Ride, The old jeep in the sand-pit.The Wild Mouse and the little zoo with a few ponies in it. Ah Nostalgia. Chris (Now living in Devon)
Thank you so much for posting this! I was so excited to see the coin operated rides - I am currently creating a website about these rides, and it has proved incredibly hard to find any photos/films from this era. Would you mind if I posted a link to your video on my site? It's just so exciting to see these old rides in action! :)
Thank you for posting Sharon. Its exactly as I remember it. Well done.
