Butlins, Fun & Dancing (Skegness) with Duncan & Isobel

 Butlins, Fun & Dancing 

Billy the Butlins Bear was just about as excited to meet us as we were him! We love all the fun thing that Butlins has to offer. 

Talking of fun, we headed to the fun fair in search of some thrills and spills. We had a fabulous time riding the carousel and whizzing around on the waltzers and bumping and crashing into each other on the bumper cars. 


We were given the VIP treatment and shown to our ring side seats in the Big Top to see the world famous Harlem Globe Trotters which was super exciting. The atmosphere in the tent was electric and the audience couldn’t wait for show to start. The basketball superstars were so cool, showing off their amazing tricks and athleticism. We watched in awe as they slammed dunked the balls into the net! 


It doesn't get much more exciting than this! We went to the massive new live music venue Studio 36 where the show kicked off with Britain's Got Talent winners Twist & Pulse who wowed us with their wicked dance moves and routines. The excitement then grew, and we could feel our hearts starting to beat a little quicker as it was now time for the star act. X Factor runner up and multitalented Fleur East rocked the house down! Her voice was out of this world, and she certainly knew how to get the party started! We managed to get all the way to the front of the stage, and we partied and danced along with the rest of the audience.


lovely morning was spent at The Seal Sanctuary to admire the  super cute baby seals. We learnt that the sanctuary looks after poorly seal pups and nurses them back to health. It was amazing to see all their hard work in action. We also got to meet many of the other animals onsite including the meercats, alpacas and the very greedy goats, which we got to feed.

The friendly Redcoats were always ready to hit the dance floor and dance the night away with us. 


The live evening entertainment was always something that we looked forward to. Strictly Latino was one of our favourites! As the lights dimmed, the rhythm of the music started blasting out of the speakers and we were wowed by the sultry vocals and electrifying dance routines. We clapped along to the lively show and sung at the tops of our voices. 


We made our way to Hot Shots for a game of ten pin bowling. It was a nail biting competition with some amazingly high scores. Alan, however was crowned champion with a very impressive score of 121 points! 


This year’s big pantomime was The Little Mermaid. We absolutely loved it with all of the amazing songs, costumes and dance routines, topped off with lots of funny moments, this show really had it all. 


We got up close and personal with all the creepy crawlies down at the Discovery Centre. There were so many weird and wonderful species for us to admire......from a far!
