went on traum boat in 88 lost money on it come out my pockets when upside down, laughing thinking it was someone elses money. log flume made barry island stand out. the arcades were full of proper arcade machines 80s best period for arcades outrun shinobi final fight golden axe wwf superstars etc etc.
Brings back some not so good memories, im sure the boat was called Mary Rose in 1986 and the flitzer was called the mousetrap. I know this because in the summer of 86 I was involved in an accident on there, ended up seriously hurt in hospital
Real fun fairs only one horrible ride the upside black pearl and the wazlers but the rest are rides unlike the shit funfairs with have today with over the top scarry rides
The slide in the Fun House used scare the shit out of us!
Great to see The Flitzer and log flume in their 80s glory, it was a great amusement park for my younger self
A trip down Barry was the highlight of the 6 weeks holiday. Top top memories.
Brings back memories ,seeing the log flume,The wacky goldmine was my favourite.
I used to spin those Waltzers as a kid working through my school holidays on the fairground, brought back memories
Blimey! That brought back some memories. I was 11 and used to go once a year in the summer.

So, the Walzers are covered in flags - the flags of England, Scotland and the Union flag. No Welsh flag. At a fun fair in Wales... :(

This was a time when Barry Island was a good place to go, now it's just a shit hole.
Barry Island has never been the same since the Holiday Camp closed in 1996.
This place bought so much joy. Now it brings nothing but depression and misery
