Places like Hagger's are for kids/families, or hooligans going by Spug/Left breathless.

If i didn't have kids i wouldn't go either.When you do have kids take them and i guarantee they will love it.

Doesn't matter if the parents hate it or not.. Its all about the bairns. Berk is a word i use so stop copying please and get your own craic eh?

Was up there this weekend, anar but it was kind of work related, watched out game in the pub up there, mash & barrel iirc,
Bout 70/30 Sunderland tops to wongaloids.
The mags all cheered and jumped about when Man Utd took the lead and we did when we scored, par for the course but there was a bit of a edgy feel to it, must be a bit dodgy over derby weekend.
Quite a few Sunderland fans had tops on for the game but loads of Newcastle tops on all 4 days the scruffy twats must never take them off.
Haggy was canny, plenty of stuff to do with the bairns and decent milf knocking about

I agree it's aright I have been as a kid and enjoyed it, but it is a well known scratter destination. Full of charvers, common people who think it's the best place on earth, got to feel sorry for them really.

Was wondering if Haggy kicked off over the weekend. Used to be a meeting point for some of our top lads back in the day, and a lot of the lads had vans up there. All kicked off when millwall mob came up and rented a 6 birther for the weekend and cleaned the site shop out of bacon. Lot of the lads packed it in after that said it wasn't the same anymore. Few of them got tourers but keep there nose clean.

I remember being there in 85 when the West Ham mob turned up in their Avondales . They were all tooled up with gas barbecues and spachelors . We just had a primus stove and a nest of billy cans . All Hell broke loose but we stood our ground even when one of our top lads got burnt by some bacon fat . Happy days !

Halcyon days mate. These days it'll be full of women and bairns. Can remember West Ham getting carved up in the 80s but it was good honest lads having a laugh.

We'll never see those days again mate . The filth are on top of everything now and the sentences handed out for campsite violence are crazy . One lad I know got sent down for 2 years for being in possession of a box if charcoal near Crimdon Dene . It's not worth it anymore mate .

Was just a way of letting off steam really, some of these lads were stockbrokers, bankers, lawyers etc who liked a tear up and a few nights away at Hagerstown castle to blow away the cobwebs. Remember one of Spurs top boys getting a toasting fork stabbed into his ear bursting his eardrum. The bloke lost hearing in one ear but it was part of the fun, just spot on lads being lads. Probably laughs about it now.

I still keep in touch with a few lads who have the occasional " off " but it's well away from the official campsites and usually only involves portable barbecues these days . They've asked me to come out of retirement but to me it's never gonna be the same with all this veggie burger and quorn sausage malarkey . Still it was fun at the time and we did get an honourable mention in the Branston brothers book " caravan carnage " .
 
Have to say our kids really enjoyed it, payed a bit extra for a nice caravan, was well positioned. Didn't spend a great deal of time at the strip although went down on a night time to eat a couple of times and also so the foster kid could enjoy the entertainment.
Spent the days visiting St Abbs, holy island and bamborough castle. Was canny. Usually go abroad this week but couldn't due to circumstances.

If we ever get Hartlepool in the cup I'd probably consider going to crimdon but aside from that things have changed too much. Filth are all over the campsites now and most the kids these days will sing like a canary. Remember one year went away down billing auquadrome got ambushed coming off the river rapids slide seen 2 Coventry laying into Carlisle who'd been dive bombing. Lost sight in one eye but they were all stood laughing about it in the club house that night.

There way of relaxing really. Worst thing that happened was Bury mob came up in an 8 birther Eldis Cavalier, one of their lot won 20 regal with £20 round it and wound up with a glass ashtray in his face. Knew what he was getting into though, just canny lads really.
