Great Yarmouth 2010
On 17 August 2010, Jezz and Wayne met with Joan & Hayley for a short break away in a chalet at Great Yarmouth.
Yesterday’s World Emporium
Yesterday’s World was a staple on the Golden Mile for several years, trading on a fondness for curiosities and nostalgia. Inside were old-fashioned street scenes, preserved shops, a myriad of time-warp artefacts as well as a themed tearoom. It opened in 2007 but sadly, closed down just seven years later, in 2014.

And again.
All of us seated watching an information video.

I’m as tall as a queen… ahuh!
A display of a sweet shop from days gone by.

Jezz with Joan and Hayley on the platform of the railway station… not a real one!
Stood waiting for a train. 2 hours before anyone told me.
Jezz outside number 11. Nope… no idea either.
Jezz doing hopscotch. This was just before a lady came out of her shop shouting, “stop doing that… my porcelain and china display keeps wobbling. You’ll have it over in a minute.”
An actual working old-fashioned fun fair horse carousel merry-go-round thingy.
About to go on the ghost train for a second time. She had fun scaring everything the first time.
I had to go in and tell them it’s just a mock-up of a vintage sweet shop. No one is coming out to serve.
Even spelt the same way.
Nice little pub for a ham egg and chips stop.
