It happened a few weeks ago, while watching the free concert that was held for the light switch on. I fell in love…. with Blackpool. Loosing a fortune in 2p coins on the slider machines in the amusement arcade, amazing fireworks displays every weekend, old couples who have been coming here for years looking out to sea, seeing the tower light up, kiosks on the promenade who sneak a drop of brandy in a coffee for you, a Friday night free concert for the light switch on with all the greats (heather small, peter kay, the zutons, dale winton) followed by the venga boys at the club, getting out of breath on the dancing machines in the arcade, evry other shop being a café selling a hangover curing "breakfast barm" Whats not to love?
PS I'm fit and healthy again, but S is still recovering,
