| We had a lovely 4 night break in Blackpool last week,,,a bargain price too--just £78 Wowcher deal for both of us for 4 nights B+B ...the reviews on Tripadvisor were all brilliant-except for someone complaining that there was orange squash on the table instead of fresh orange! Our room was large--and spotless clean--had 2 double beds and a single one in it! Lovely huge shower all newly refurbished-couldn't fault it! |
 |
| It doesn't take us long to make the place untidy! The weather forecast had been awful so we packed loads of cold weather clothes--and didn't need any of them in the end! It rained a couple of nights but not when we were out and about--it was lovely and sunny! |
 |
| I used £7 worth of Tesco vouchers in exchange for 2 tickets to the Tower circus-- we went last year and it was brilliant, but quite expensive--so this was a real bargain! Some fantastic acts-- no animals, breath-taking trapeze acts etc...well worth a visit! |

 |
| Most of the scaffolding is down from round the tower now.. |
 |
| As we had a such a good deal with the digs and circus I thought we could splash out on a visit to see Michael Jacksons Thriller show that was on for just 5 days in the Grand Theatre --it was good but didn't feel it was worth the £60 compared to all the other things we did.. |
 |
| We don't normally have fish and chips-- but fancied some as we walked back down the prom...they looked OK but didn't taste great--the fish was thin and a bit greasy--as were the chips-so we ended up leaving most of it... |
 |
| The breakfast at the LLanryn Guest house was lovely-- no complaints at all..Choice of cereals, toast and a full English--not a trace of grease to be found... |

 |
| If you do nothing else when you go to Blackpool, you must take a visit to The Funny Girls Show-- we laughed all night !!! Zoe and her 'girls are just brilliant! 7pm -12pm and only £12.50 each what great value! |
 |
| There are so many different bits to it-always different! |
 |
| Their version of Abba lol |
 |
| We were crying at The Sound Of Music!! |
 | |
| PMSL at this! |
 |
| Brulee was our 'waitress' for the night |
 |
| Even Amy Whinhouse made an appearance! |
 |
| This act hanging on the ribbons made my eyes water at times... |
 |
| amazing! |
 |
| The finale...well done ladies--we will be back to see you again next year! And we came back to some wonderful news about my son Jim...he is in remmission with just a few residual cells left--they have also found a perfect match bone marrow donor ! He is having another weeks chemo to clear up the cells left and seeing the specialists in Birmingham later today to sort out the donation.Its by no means going to be a walk in the park for him but things are looking far more hopeful than they were..somewhere out there is a selfless lady who made the desion to be a donor--I thank her with all my heart for that xxx |
