Folkestone, Margate & Hernes Bay

Hi, new member today. Hope to spend some time browsing the forums, especially the Bembom pages.
Was a frequent visitor to Folkstone from 1981, and occasional visitor to Bemboms on birthdays. I found the web page via the book page as wanted to purchase the historic book on Folkstone but sadly it's unavailable.

I remember the Dome best.
This summer I would like to visit again (now living in the southwest). Seeking some photos of inside and around the Dome from the early 80s to help me remember some details.

Surprisingly sad to see they are gone. :(

Anyone looking for the smaller park rides and arcade machines from diminished parks would be wise to check out Watermouth Castle in North Devon. It's a bit of a hidden gem. Some old Butlin rides amongst other things. Lots of working vintage slots.

Cheers.
Pav
