Fancy Dress Competition
Taken at Butlins, Pwllheli during Season '86. Thirty years ago! Chief Redcoat Kennie Jones plays host to the weekly Fancy Dress Competition held in the Regency Bar.
I worked at Butlins for five years and, sad to say, hated every day. Yet here we have a slice of English life and how things used to be, though Butlins had only just been sold to Rank Leisure at the time and this form of entertainment was coming to an end. This was the last year of the Glamorous Granny Competition and others, such as Miss Lovely Legs and Holiday Princess, were being phased out for a more corporate image.
