Seen in Rotherham today.

We saw a nice burgandy and white bus in Whiston about 13.45 heading up the hill towards Aughton. Was it anyone on here?

 

Probably lost on it's way to Barnsley beach.

 

Surfs up

 

Is there still a big leisure Cente up there, with a wave machine?
I went there with my mate Kev, who’s ‘real dad’ lived there, still.
About ‘79...

 

You just brought back a 70s memory. Probably around '76 I remember going with friends.

 

Unfortunately the leasure centre with wave machine has gone. ....used to take our kids there.

 

What was it called? I forgot.
Tropicana, Paradise Centre? Something like that?
I can still picture it, even today.
Quite dark in there....

 

Bit vague for me too but I used to go to a pool with waves back in the early 90's - I thought it was at Herringthorpe.

 

Aw mooch

 

Yes, Herringthorpe Leasure Centre.

 

Think the combination of wave machine and silly lighthouse structure that didn't go all the way to the pool bottom, resulted in a kid being "taken " , drowned trapped under said structure.
That hastened the Leisure centre's demise.

 

Yes, could have been this one.
