Queen, as in you have timing of the dropping of the coin to perfection ?"Obviously there's that! 
But generally not allowing anyone else on my machine until I'm done. Plus I end up getting dragged away by my husband because the arcade is closing.

"The old Penny arcade at the end of Southport Pier. It's like visiting the amusements and a museum at the same time. And a very inexpensive way to pass the time too. Plus as I (Mr) am a bit of a mechanics and analogue electronics buff it all has an extra level of magic for me." Sounds lovely  | |||

"Just the smell of the places take me back to my childhood. The electric tang of the bumper cars, the chips, doughnuts... I lived 30 mins away from Walton/Clacton as a kid so quite often we would pop over at the weekend. I still live close today, but don't visit much. Probably Things like the "crap toy grabbers". I could always pretend I was doing it for my kids (and now grandkids), but really it's because I like them. Mr C (Ms C. basically lived on Walton pier as a kid)" Cool  What about the electric shock game haha | |||

""pennies by the sea" is a great book if you like arcade nostalgia. Having great grandparents that lived a couple of miles outside Blackpool,I spent a lot of time just wandering round the piers and arcades.My great grandmother ended up getting banned from most of the arcades for tipping the penny falls machines,she was built like a house side if you are thinking little old lady." Haha I like her
Nothing more satisfying than walking through a seaside arcade and finding a rogue 4p that's fallen in the tray | |||

or we sit and play the horses as that wasn’t really gambling either.
If I’d won anything I’d find the laughing policeman box and put my money in to make it laugh.
Simple times, simple pleasures, good times & memories 
Just recently spent a couple of hours in an arcade, was good to relive memories and then give all the tickets away | |||
