I haven't been to Blackpool for years. I always find it a bit depressing. It's so run-down and faded.

Nice pictures though!

"Thanks. I needed that."

senik said:

....Somehow everyone seems to revert to being a kid as soon as they see the tower .....

....It was a packed day there and there just wasn't enough time or space to enjoy the pleasure beach....

.....But I'm going back this weekend with a bit of luck

.....(The Family are up in Lights You Know...and I Want a Pic)

Milty said:

England misses you, too..

Blackpool is just Chav Central, isn't it?



Surely the place where all the naffest things about England collide into one sorry mess.



Ooo The Sea! (Don't go in, you'll catch something)

The Beach! (Bit fucking cold, innit?)


Donkey rides! (RSPCA, Are you there...?!)


Illuminations! (..oh come on! Better than Walsall, I grant you, but that ain't saying a lot...)


Nightlife! (WHAT?! A load of dives and more chippies per square mile than anywhere on the planet AND STILL THE CHIPS ARE SHIT)


The people! (are scum)

Ocean said:

Thanks Ocean....Just isn't enough time in one day to cover Blackpool.....

.....And we kept bumping into orgers....









Mighty Strange

Glad you had fun though Steadwood!

Steadwood said:

I know I've been to Blackpool hon. It is very nice. And fun

It's very much like our beaches here in Jersey, like an amusment park atmosphere.

Nearly Dark now.....




The Pier comes to Life....




The Tower Lights up.....

Even batman Flies in,....but Gets Misdirected...




The Night comes to an End.....




And now it's off Home... ....but we'll be back
