Very sad to see the damage by the fire last night at Skegness.

Moderator, not sure where this topic should go.Liz

My daughter and her fiance are going there, for a few days, as I write this

One more reason on a very long list of reasons why not to go to skegness …
The place is a dump anyway so a burnt out arcade isn’t going to make any difference …

prob done millions of pounds worth of improvements :laughing: :laughing:

It could possibly be arson by the other arcade owners. There’s a small number of families that own the most arcades throughout the UK such as Nobles and Corrigans. These families are very protective to the point of stupidity - woe betide a newcomer who opens one without their approval. They all objected to the complex being open and it’s been a poor season all over the UK. My mate shut his arcade in Scarborough this year as it’s been so bad over the last few years.

Its probably someone trying to stop the truckers conference going ahead :stuck_out_tongue:

Skegness is like Belgium without the beer and chips
