I THINK YOUR CAPS LOCK IS STUCK ON
Like the owner said its the seaside……. Nowadays they sell SEX toys in Supermarkets …. Should we avoid going grocery shopping too…..
KEEP CALM N RELAX

ON HOLIDAY WITH MY HUSBAND AND SON IN JULY 2019. WENT TO BUY SWEETS FROM “NEMOS” A CABIN ON THE PROMENADE ON BOTTONS PLEASURE BEACH. AS I WAS CHOOSING SWEETS I WAS HORRIFIED TO SEE RIGHT NEXT TO ME CANDY DUMMIES ON RIBBONS THAT WERE PENIS SHAPED! THEY WERE ON THE OUTSIDE OF THE CABIN AT CHEST HEIGHT DANGLING RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME! A CHILD COULD EASILY SEE THEM AND ALSO REACH THEM. I TOLD THE OWNER THEY SHOULD REALLY BE OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN. HE MADE ME FEEL UNCOMFORTABLE BY SAYING WITH A SMIRK ON HIS FACE “WHY SHOULD THEY BE OUT OF REACH” AS IF HE DIDNT KNOW THEY WERE PINK COLOURED PENISES! I THEN HAD TO SAY THEY WERE PENIS DUMMIES IN FRONT OF MY FAMILY. HE WAS VERY RUDE AND OFFENSIVE SAYING I DIDNT HAVE TO BUY THEM AND IT WAS A SEASIDE TOWN AND EVERYONE SELLS THEM. I SAID I HAD SEEN THEM IN OTHER SHOPS BUT THEY WERE BEHIND THE TILL OR HIGH UP OUT OF REACH. WHAT IF A CHILD WAS WITH THEIR FRIENDS AND DIDNT REALISE AT FIRST WHAT IT WAS THEY COULD EASILY REACH UP AND BUY ONE WITH THEIR POCKET MONEY AND WALK AROUND SUCKING ON THE THING! I AM NO PRUDE BUT SHOPS DO NOT EVEN HAVE ADULT MAGAZINES IN REACH OF CHILDREN SO WHY SHOULD THIS OWNER BE ALLOWED TO? HE WAS VULGAR AND OBNOXIOUS AND DIDNT SEEM CONCERNED SO I DOUBT HE WOULD NOT HAVE ANY QUALMS IN SELLING TO A CHILD AS LONG AS HE MADE A SALE. HE SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED UNDER SAFEGUARDING LAWS. SKEGNESS IS A SEASIDE TOWN BUT IT IS A FAMILY ORIENTATED SEASIDE TOWN. STAY WELL CLEAR!!!

is that the peir arcades with the bowling underneath

In reply to jason glasspool.

Unfortunately Bottons closes down in September and reopens in march, about the only attractions open at that time are the arcades :(

This is one area Skegness and other seaside towns fail for a plausible all year round holiday experience.

Skegness needs many more events, festivals and indoor attraction so it can happily accommodate holiday makers in the colder months to survive in the modern world of all year round holidays.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news :(

Marie

are you open between oct28 and nov 4 as thats when me and my family are visting,are the rides shut or open

In reply to Shaun.

Couldn’t agree more, but you try and tell greedy attraction owners if they charge less they will earn more.

The concept goes right over there heads, they don’t want to take the risk of earning less full stop, even though you and I know that if you give people a bargain they will come back for more and as a bonus will inadvertently spend money using other facilities for food etc..

We’ve lived in Skeg 5 years and have only used the Log Flume twice due to cost.

An interesting observation, that the owners must never noticed is that even though there is no one on the log flume there is always a crowd watching the empty carriages go around.

It’s so packed with people watching that you can’t get passed.

Makes me laugh every year, is Skegness that boring :)

I guess the owner aren’t that business savvy, just think of the money if all the people watching was actual riders

Personally I think the best things to do in Skegness are the things that are free, a walk across the beach first thing in the morning is something no money can buy and no attraction can top.

Unfortunately as far as I’m aware there is no money off offers at Bottons.

In reply to Gary.

I’m not sure about the all day ticket, we’ve never used it, but the evening ticket prices start at 5pm till 10pm.

Best bet is to give them a call.
