    Smile Old Penny Memories

    A couple of weeks ago we visited Bridlington, a seaside town about 20-30 mins up the coast from where we live

    Walking along the promenade / sea front we saw a sign for 'old Penny Memories' so off we went to see what it was all about

    It turned out to be a small 'hands on' museum of old penny arcade machines, lots of Allwins, penny pushers etc etc

    What I liked was that although it was Free Entry that day, I found out that it only costs about 50p to enter normally and for that you get a handful of old 1 penny coins to play on the machines with!!

    Yes it really is 'hands on' there was quite a few families there enjoying the simple old machines, Although my 4 year old was scared of the Jolly Jack laughing sailor

    just off the main room we found a small dark room where there were a few old pinball tables!! These were 10p and 20p each play,

    We managed to grab a few pics
