Is this going to be another thread taken off topic and ruined today?

Can we stick to the topic?

Remember chaps, your favourite section of the forum, wiki chat, is for the drivel.

Thanks.

It is very unfair of you to say that it is an eyesore, it's part of New Brighton's Heritage.


Agreed that's it's part of New Brighton, shame some money couldn't be invested into it to bring it back to life & maybe up to date.

my grandparents met at this building, my grandad worked on the waltzers and my nan used to come over from west derby over to the fun fair. to me this building holds special means. i hope that mr wilkie can restore it and this does not mean the end of it. would be such a sad loss for something that has been involved in the history of new brighton for many years.

I spoke to the man himself this afternoon and the fire was started in a store room and spread to the plant room. All the electrics for there and tallulahs were damaged but he hoping to be up and running by the weekend.

I used to love the fair when i was achild, always seemed better when i was younger with the go-karts and all the slides etc
Had many a happy time in there. Yes, the building has seen better days, but it was always awesome and i still enjoy going down there.

miss the go karts and the old rides though. not keen on the larger arcade section

Certainly not a dump then! Great news that it should be up and running again by the weekend.
