The Magic of Memories

This was taken at Skegness with my then stage partner. Irving Roy.

I have written about being trapped in the Sword Cabinet rolling down the stage during a live performance.

During that same week we were invited to the staff midnight party. The atmosphere was great and our impromptu comedy routine went a bomb.

Now I don’t drink but I did have some punch which cetainly had.

I remember been caught by security, more than half cut, trying to climb a sheer wall to a rubbish dump. I was in full clown outfit and makeup. This might be why I just don’t drink.. I cannot hold it.

I have many happy memories of my Butlins days, several of which will probably creep into this series.
