Man I haven't been to Blackpool since I was a kid. The parents used to love seeing the illuminations and riding the tram to Fleetwood and back.
I hear it's a little more run down now and the poster child for socially deprived towns, which is a real shame.
Memories.
It's awful. Such a shame, it could actually be lovely with a decent bit of regeneration.
I have a friend who spent several days there a couple of years ago. He stayed in a motel that was renting out its rooms as temporary home offices for entrapaneurs.
