Loved these pictures, brings back memories of my child hood going on holiday in yarmouth. The snails at Joyland have been there for years. I have pictures of me about 5 years old on them. I am now taking my daugher and son on them next week to get a picture of them on the snails too. Who knows, maybe there kids will go on them too!!!....
