Off to Blackpool next month, overnight stay.

[Kate!]

The bright lights are calling.

Just hope the weather is reasonable.

Going for a Tibb meet up but won't say who with in case they don't want me to.

Staying overnight in a B and B, booked it yesterday and going to see a show in the evening.

Anyone else like Blackpool as a tourist attraction.

Hope you and Nessa have a great time seeing Blackpool illuminations

I went to the Circus at the top of the tower when I was a child ..

All kinds of wild animals .. then they started pumping thousands of gallons of water into the centre and I remember panicking as there was an amusement arcade in the level below and I was worrying what would happen if the water leaked down into all the electrics !!!


They couldn’t get me into the tower for years

Ah yes, the joys of comfort eating.

Or also the temptation of getting goodies in for BB eviction nights.

We are meeting at the hotel around 3.30pm, checking in and going out for an early tea. Then in the evening we are going to a show. Its boyband music, a tribute. And we are probably gonna take a tram through the lights.

[Vanessa]

Me neither. I can't believe I'm finally meeting up after knowing you for years.

We are just waiting to go into the boyband show after stuffing our faces at pizza hut and waiting over half an hour for a tram to go through the lights, which didn't happen as there was an accident so trams weren't running.

[Kate!]

Ness is just like her photo but looks younger.

[Vanessa]

At Winter Gardens waiting for the show.

Don't do anything I wouldn't do. Which wouldn't leave you many options.

Had a great night. Loved meeting Kate and the concert was amazing.

Doing some shopping. The Tower Ballroom opens at 11. I definitely want to see it before I go. It's such an amazing place.

It's nice and sunny this morning. We have been lucky with the weather. No raining.

Well we were let down with the Tower Ballroom, it was closed. But we did some shopping and went to an antiques fair instead. We are just having lunch at the pound bakery cafe. Toastie for Vanessa, jacket potato for me.

…awwwww, that’s such a shame because I know how much that would have meant to you both and how excited you were to go…on a positive, though…you’ll totally have to arrange another visit together when you know it’s open…so that’s something to look forward to…:love:..

[Vanessa]

Hopefully it will be open in summer.

…I think it reopens in March next year…
