Towns- Blackpool- Lancashire.

Oh, lovely Blackpool, it is either once every ten years or never again. I am the once every ten, maybe even sooner and I was very impressed to see from my last visit how it has changed and been regenerated.

There is a new sea wall, new trams, new pavement, new street installations, new shops and the tower now has a glass floor AND there is a seafront wedding chapel.

Maybe it is a northern thing that you went to Blackpool as a kid and watched the illuminations out of the car window, had a bag of chips special and went home well past midnight. Or maybe you went on the opening weekend of The Pleasure Beach in the old days when it was a fiver and rode all of the rides whilst heavy un-forecast march snowfall appeared while you were on The Grand National.

Or is it when you went on a party coach trip for someone’s 18th who you now can't remember to The Palace and drank Malibu and Pernod as you can definitely handle that. I don't know, but Blackpool is just Blackpool and until the next ten years here are some pictures of things I saw and liked.

Might I add, I finally saw the big disco ball, and this has had me contented ever since. Click on the links for more information or go HERE for all your Blackpool needs.
