According to todays Telegraph it's been voted the worst family holiday place in Britain. Thats a tough vote to win given most of it is a rip off :)

Was there the other week when Ianto's sister was over from OZ, was really surprised how dirty it looked. There was hardly anything open on the front, but at least Marion enjoyed it [she said she wanted to relive her youth]. We spent most of the day in the tower, which we enjoyed even went to the circus it was brilliant. Can't say that I would like to go for a week, but we had a great day:D

Fancy that.I must admit I have no experience of Blackpool's hotels as I've never been on holiday there since I was a little girl.I only ever take my kids there on day trips.

OMG Spugg!!! That has just brought back some really good memories for me!!!

Me and my mate used to come down whinney Hill on our bikes..... it had breaks (( not that we used them much )) and we used to let go of the handle bars and see who dared to ride right to the bottom not holding on :eek::eek:..... and to get really daring, if the lights were on green when we reached the bottom we used to go straight threw them aswell :eek::eek::eek:

i would bloody kill my kids if I caught them doing something like that :(


But bloody hell it was fun :D:D:D

The other one was down Dill Hall Lane and trying to go round Manor Gardens not through it as I had a habit of doing. :mad: Then they spoiled the fun and put the new road and lights there. :( If my hooli did that I would be freaking and jumping up and down like i was walking on hot sand. ;)

i used to like that ice blast or playstation or whatever they're calling it now if it's still there. that ride that went straight up. was really good if you got on the right side because when it got to the top you could see all the pier and the sea. great view.

Yeah its called tango Ice Blast!!

I have been dying to go on that for years!! Finally went on it, and I was disappointed!!

I do think i went about everything the wrong way though!! I went on the best ride first (( Infusion )) then everything after that seemed weedy :( I think I should have saved it til last to go on that, then maybe all the other rides would have got my heart pumping a bit lol
