Country Music Festivals 1980's - 1990's

Back in the 1980's and early 1990's  when the children were small we attended many Country Music Holidays at Pontins, we went several times to Hemsby, we also went to St Marys Bay and a couple of New Year Festivals at Prestatyn. We also attended a Festival at Butlins in Skegness, one of the acts was Stella Parton (Dolly's sister), she queued up for food next to Bob.
