  1. well its rarer than a puddle duck
  2. I think the main thing here is what really did this couple expect for their money - this place has always had a bad rep. and since pontins sold it to probably the worst hotel group in the country (britannia) which owns some hanging hotels ( the norbreck castle in blackpool comes to mind). They are not charging much for a rapidly disapearing resorce so you are not exactly going to have a holiday in bali . The security guard is also not there to police the customers - if any customer is upset about illegal goings on report it to the police ,( expect a good kickin' as you leave the park though}.
  3. The holidaymaker should have checked out the reviews on tripadvisor as well - holiday heaven is not made in butlins southport Bring the anti ant spray as well - the only place in the uk that I have heard of that has a problem with them.
  4. Personally if it was me I would tell the holidaymaker to see his employer and possably check out his employment contract - that should get rid of them
  5. After a holidaymaker complained to a security guard in pontins southport The security guard on duty ‘refused to do anything’ because he said it ‘wasn’t his job’, the furious holiday-maker claims. Michelle said: ‘Drugs were freely being smoked everywhere you turned, kids were running wild until the early hours. ‘Parents were p***ed up, no masks were being worn, bottles of spirits were being brought into the park and drank in the entertainment area on clear show. ‘The door guard didn’t have a badge and refused to deal with the weed. He said it wasn’t his job. So I asked “what is your job then?” to which he replied “clearly a better job than you because I don’t have my holidays in Pontins”.’
  6. Just picked out a Isacc newton 2017 out of my change 1800 000 mintage - nice one eh , mint grade as well
  7. The bend in it puts me off putting a bid in
  8. They will be turning it over and putting their knee on its neck . Note who they use latex gloves as well easy to throw away so nobody to blame , surely they are not afraid of catching covid off it
  9. I always thought keith was into bourbon big time in geezer butler's book hes always on about it , all those long american tours i surpose
  10. that 1856 farthing discribed as A/Unc looks like it's been covered in gilt as well
  11. Keith moon a top coin grader ? I thought hes having a party with freddie mercury and john bonham .
  12. Northern ireland apparently
  13. 1859 farthings are rather rare and are popular you could sell them till the cows come home same with 1851 and 1852 , but there is no way that coin should have gone to much more than £25 esp as the other coin was listed at around the same time There again ebay does produce freak results for sellers every so often
  14. If you read what I said carefully lucido 8 's coin was in worse than fine (but described as good fine ) and fetched £102. The other seller had an EF coin and it never got a bid at only £100.
  15. Just looking through finished coin prices I noted on seller Lucido-8 sell a near fine copper farthing for £102 and yet a EF coin with lustre ( A really nice coin ) never got a bid at £100 starting price (Another seller) , totally weird. I also noted this seller seems to get consistantly good prices for really rarther poor coins . Is he shilling or does anyone suspect a rat ?
  16. You offered £2 I presume
  17. Maybe latant racism as well lets take the knee for him
  18. image copyrightSuffolk Police image captionTitan the tortoise was loaded into a police van and returned to his owner A giant tortoise managed to make it about a mile across a town before being apprehended by police. Titan, who weighs in at a whopping nine stone (60kg), was found in Kesgrave, near Ipswich, on Friday. It took three police officers to lift the wayward pet into a van and drive him home to his worried owner. Richard Aston said it was a "mystery" how Titan made it that far as he had not broken through his shelter. "Maybe he teleported there," he said. When police called Mr Aston, he was not at home so had no idea his 35-year-old pet African sulcata tortoise was on the loose. "There was no sign of the fence being broken, and he can't jump over it - it's three feet high," he said.
  19. It's a 2p this year
