Penny For Your Thoughts

Here is another in our series of "FeatuRED."

This time around our chosen REDCOAT is PENNY HOLMES who worked at

BUTLINS FILEY 1963, 1964, and 1965

This is me, 'Auntie' Penny, looking after one of
the entrants in the "Bonny Baby" competition.

I was a general duties Redcoat in my first year at Minehead - 1962,
and a children's Redcoat for the three years after that - Filey 1963 to 1965.

Me with the kiddies - jumping for joy!
(That's joy on the right.)

The big kid, sitting in amongst all the others, is 'Uncle' Maurice.

'Uncle' Maurice again - this time playing the Sherif, and
taking his posse around the camp, looking for baddies.

It may not seem like it, but my Redcoat friend Brenda is celebrating her 21st Birthday.
Maybe she just didn't fancy the camper who came over to buy us some drinks. (1964)
