Went to St Ives in July for a few days. Lovely place. Didn't really check the pubs.

The arcade - mostly £5 stuff with a small over 18's. They had a Road to Riches and a 4-reeler DOND at the time, which were OK but didn't get played much.

The £5 stuff is OK for scraping a few quid together, but nothing really special. The Cabin and Panther were always lively.

See if you can beat my score on Bubble Bobble! :)

Also an AFU in Bubble Cab
Panther £35
Hot Stuff

It isn't an original Bubble Bobble.

It's one of those Ultracade cabinets, with about 50 games on.

Paperboy
Crystal Castles

and so on...

They were all on p1,
I emptied them for fun,
and spent the winnings block-paving my drive?

How's that?

Yes it does have Rainbow Islands on, and a couple more Bub and Bob games. 50p a play I think it was, good value if you're good at any of the games.

Also had Mortal Kombat on it as well.

There once was a player like I
Who left with a tear in his eye
For he went to a 5
But it wasn't alive
For Anfield had already stopped by!
