Enjoyed your Skegness walkabout Stephen.

In my youth the mods would arrive on vespas clad in parka jackets. We would have all nighters on the beach after spilling out from the Brief Encounter which opened till the early hours, a coffee bar down chip alley. The Chuck Wagon and the Lion were our haunts listening to Tamla Motown. Sometimes we would hitch hike to the Gliderdrome Boston to dance to top live bands like Emerson Lake and Palmer, Ginger Bakers Airforce and more. The Tower Gardens had a great illumination, a blue Smurf, but they took it away causing my young son to cry and cry. Skegness was lovely. Its no longer recognisable to me.

My mate from Leicester says East Midlanders call the street with the chippies, chip pan alley!

Hi Stephen. enjoyed your walk around Skegness. and your photos look fantastic. lovely colors. The clock tower looks great with the changing colors. 👍🥰❤️

I used to live in Mansfield now in cleveleys so I used to travel up to Skegness a lot , it seems a lot better now than 8years ago when I went , some nice pubs .. brilliant video as always Stephen

Love Chapel St Learnard had lovely time there with the kids x

After 6pm or 7pm it goes like a ghost town when it's out of season.

Thanks for the nice walk around skegness,😊

Excellent video Stephen. Nice to see Skegness ag night. Having a McDonald's on the seafront makes other businesses keep their prices down. It was sure Kicking Off down that Road. Look forward to your next video 👍😁😎

Good Evening Steve. Skeggy at night looking rather calm and peaceful. Looks very nice to come and visit for a Evening out with my Friends. Thank you Steve.

Looks much nicer at night I thought it was awful during the day especially that premier inn on the front but it looks lovely at night. Love all the art deco. Skegness looks nicer than expected 👍 quite posh! xx

Skegvegas, Ingoldmells and the rest of the east coast seem to have vastly increased the number of caravans since I was there. Is this a sign of the agenda of stopping us travelling abroad/long distances? Newquay, where I had my best family hols, has increased self catering apartments, etc. Holidays at home is making a return.

Great video Stephen would you be able to get a video over in Ingoldmells if your still over that way, that would be interesting and its only down the road from Skegness 😊

Interesting walkabout in Skegness, it’s amazing how quiet tourist towns like Blackpool become in the off season.

Great video Stephen as always I went there years ago it all looks a lot better now . Love hearing you say it's kicking off . Take care stay out of them dark roads ❤

Thank you for the video Stephen, Skeggy's night life quieter than I remember as a teenager. Love the Art Deco never really appriciated it as a youngster and I'm glad they've kept it. You've taken some lovely photos Stephen. It all kicks off in Skeggy too.😊😊😊

Thanks again for another informative vlog Stephen as i said on the last vlog I've not been in Skegness since I was a young boy i hope you are well

I last went to Skegness in 2009 and stayed on a campsite on Roman bank. I remember there was a nice chip shop near the clock tower. Its hard to believe it was nearly fifteen years ago now. Many thanks for the nice memories Stephen 👍

That was Tones chip shop now gone, I think he retired to Spain.

Aa always great wee walk about, never been to Skegness though have been to blackpool many times, i remember back in the 1980's blackpool had a vast underground swingers scene. I will always have a special place in my heart for british holidays 🇬🇧 Thanks for sharing your walks Stephen

Hello Stephen, thank you for your video in Skegness. Looks so different since my last visit so would be interested to go back. Hope you enjoyed your time up East.

Hi Stephen, thanks for another great video 😊

Thanks for another great vlog, enjoyed this xx

Great look around Skegness. Cheers Stephen 😊

Great seeing Skegness at night time, will be different again get holiday season here, and Kicking Off in full swing, With Skeg having so many caravan sites a lot of nightlife happens in the clubs / bars on site or Ingoldmells just down Roman Bank two miles.

Nice to see you out and about and the places that you bring to us are amazing, and then back to Blackpool, the best

thanks Stephen for another great video

Another great video Stephen. Always interesting to explore new places. I’m in Brighton and went to Skegness about 25 years ago.

Hi Stephen, i liked your walk around video today, The Steak house do a nice meal~ my sister & i eat there a lot when on holiday. Were going to Skegness again this July. We go to Blackpool two years then Skegness for two years. We just have our Eve meal, then go back to hotel, were both walking impaired.

That was an interesting video Steve, don't think I would fancy a holiday there though, seemed extremely quiet for a Saturday evening, keep up the good work Steve 😂

Never had 3 piers like your home town But before the pier was badly damaged in 1978 storm it was the 3rd longest in the UK. Great video brought back many happy memories 😢😊

I'm so disappointed it didn't kick off in Skegness on Saturday night! 🤣 I enjoy your videos, Stephen, and the still photos were great. You are an excellent photographer.

Hi Steve we have been to witness a few times and really like it we stayed at haven park called Skegness holiday Park and it's about 10-15 min walk from the Tesco store and it has ideally good fish and chip shop on sight .

A breath of fresh air

Love the its kicking off in Skegness coverage Stephen 😂

I wonder how Lumleys are going to feel when the Whetherspoons open opposite them 🙈

Well it’s been there for donkey years, it’s only being done up & extended

On Lumley road there used to be a amazing sandwich shop chickens cakes very nice

I guess the town have their own local beer monsters Stephen. The clock tower is gorgeous at night.

Some very nice looking arcades there nice to see a video of mr wildside on tour.

Sent your earlier daytime vid to my Sis, who used to holiday in Skeggy. She said she didn't recognize any of it!

Looks like a lovely place. The Bingo Hall is a gem

Love the illuminated iconic clock tower in Skegvegas! A similar one in Margate!

went there for me first holiday in skegness in 82 to butlins but not been back since ,

Heard you mention Lytham Steve in this vid… I’ve heard they’ve just installed some huge CCTV cameras in the town just outside Stringers & some further down Clifton street & the square ((wonder if it’s been kicking off)) brilliant vid as always 👍

It’s good to see good old Skeggy is busy in the off season and so well lit at night. If there’s one thing I hope you take away from your visit Stephen is that you don’t need to be a large or wealthy place to have lots of trees, something that Blackpool is shamefully so lacking in and needs a severe rethink about!

There is no point in thinking about it. As any gardener will tell you, it is a fact that trees and flowers cannot survive in Blackpool's windy, salt-laden atmosphere and no plant has yet been invented that is able to do so. Even the grass the council put down when the Promenade was remodelled virtually all perished within a year. If you want greenery, look elsewhere - just as I did....

@improvesheffield4824

@@uk-martin4905 nonsense!!! There are plenty of plants that have evolved to live by the coast and can easily deal with strong, salt laden winds. All there needs to be is the knowledge to plant the right plants that will thrive in that environment and the political will to do it! And we're not just talking about the sea front: there are already a small number of trees in the backstreets already just a few yards from the promenade. There simply needs to be a lot more planted where they're already thriving, so please take your ignorant comments somewhere else please - you're not helping!

Nice onewatched yer Blackpool blogs Stephen,good too see u in other places mate,ps i went to Blackpool last year like i said I would, blooming marvellous!!!! Fantastic work Steve.🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 3:12

Wellies Bar great for Northern Soul events

great video stephen always guaranteed a good night in skeg pubs are brill very rarely any bother come in the summer when its more busier its very lively at a few of them bars you deffo need to come back and try a few of them cafes down the high street though ;)

I've never been to Skegness but it seems alright - clean and tidy .But the good thing about Blackpool is no matter how far you roam you can always pinpoint the Tower and find your way back to the seafront - unless somebody trips over the plug and the lights go out .

The seaside towns of the north are mostly similar, for me the south coast is completely different. I don't mean which is better, but they are very different...

Its a good funfair great rides, the water ride is amazing, a decent ghost train, and pirate ship, and roller coaster and freak out, yes i agree blackpool is decent as well both great places to vist.

Skegness 1968 Butlins lads holiday completely rat arsed pushed my food tray straight off the end of the serving area. Great memories of Skeg.

Skegness looks similar to Cleethorpes 👍

I've not been to Skegness since I was 3 months pregnant with my son he's now almost 23 next month

I heard it's all kicking off in blackpool again enjoy your walkabout skegness Steve 😊

hi Stephen great video and that pirate chippy has been on barging loving brits on channel 5

It’s all kicking off 😂😂❤

So much is open in winter, and there's shows as well at butlins.

Nice to see how other seaside towns live.

I went into Busters pub and fell out of it good night 👊

Nice walk around good to see Skegness

My goodness Stephen. Why you slummin'.? Stay safe and be well. Best wishes from Canada.

I love skeg, and most seaside towns in the uk.

Hi steven your better off going in summer or late march and going down the road to fantasy island 🏝 Ingoldmells

That road with all the chippies is called " chip pan alley"

🤣🤣 love it xx

Kicking off you say, I’ve seen some of the biggest bar room brawls & riots in that Marine Bar just off the front 🥊

Good video Stephen - thanks. Good old Skegness council switching off more and more street lighting! Pathetic!

Stephen....Liverpool Kev here ....So much thanks as usual to show us........Get home quick before you turn into a pumpkin haha...Take care ...Liverpool Kev...

that park has lots of beer monsters in the summer

Cockneys went to skeggy on holiday. . X im in Blackpool now.

Nice vlog of Skegness at night .. Never had any problems there myself . I always think skegness is a little bit like Southport

there were hardly any young people going out on Saturday night , pretty grim, however, the town itself is quite nice.

I’d hardly call one guy being arrested as “all kicking off”

Skegness is as popular as Blackpool spent many holidays there

Scooter Rallies 1980s Happy Dayz

a very good video

HI MATE ITS BEEN ANOTHER EXCELLENT VIDEO AS USUAL 😅😮😢🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

A lot cheaper than Blackpool pleasure beach.much better for families .

We lost skeggy pier decade's ago in a huge storm. What you experienced is all that's left of it.

we stay indoors wheen in blacpool at night.....inside entertainment....Hotel Sheraton. Have you been inside Stephen , it is so beautiful? x

Enjoyed the walk about but would never consider going anywhere like this or Blackpool for a day out, never mind a week! I much prefer the countryside and nature. 😊

YES!!! I saw Kickoff in Blackpool! Great vid! Now where is Skegness in relation to Blackpool?

Fairly quiet = totally deserted

Local Here Skegness dont really any Nightclubs only really busy one is The Hive which is on the Seafront

Stephen your the man, love your clips but please my friend be careful, people with beer inside them can be a bid odd shall we say.

I think it be good if you returned to Skegness in the summer to catch the vibes then. 😊

Its 70s 80s up at butlin's normally get people down for afternoon sesh

Not far from me in Sutton on Sea

Behind the main shopping street there is a little street that runs parallel, that is also filled with chip shops and a few cafes, and has a street market in the spring/summer months. Nice photos Stephen, did you use a tripod? ... Thanks it was a great video.
