If I thought the kids would survive yes! Sadly I will have to be there to keep her on an even keel. She loses it easily and I want the kids to enjoy it.

No, I think the only thing for it is to glue a permanent smile on and sing along with captain croccy and his possibly paedo mates:blink:

I'm in Prestatyn right now, only because my Parents moved here on retirement. I've often wondered what there was to do. I thought it was the Norths version of Bognor.... Aka Gods waiting room. It is bloody boring here lol.

Must be at least 24 hours since I mentioned how green the UK is, and Prestatyn is greener than most ;)

I wonder if there is such a thing as a decent pub/club around here, I wouldnt mind a bit of time out... ????

Ozzieeagle - there used to be a good pub on the road to Rhyl that sold good pub grub too, steaks/chicken on a sizzling hotplate. Probably shutdown now.
Prestatyn
My kids used to dance and we ended up in the Pontins and Haven camps every year.
The Pontins camp is alright, budget accomodation a bit shabby/silver is better but the camp in general is alright. The kids will love it.
The Haven camp is mostly caravans which get very cold in the evening :blink:
We used to have the oven, hobs and fire on to warm them up!!
The chippy there is disgusting, slow service and very expensive. Stay well away - it would be cheaper to eat out.
some friends of ours have said that the seafront at Rhyl has been modernised
as last time we went it was an eyesore with loads of empty properties.
I'm sure you will survive :thumbsup:

Although I'm fiercely protective of North Wales (Snowdonia) it doesn't go as far as Prestatyn. What a dump ! As stevemich advised, travel to Conwy or Llandudno, which are beautiful. Stay away from Rhyl if you can, that's even worse. Alternatively, get drunk, dream of Oz and forget your worries. No doubt you're feeling guilty and trying to do the right thing. Good luck.
