Blackpool and the Fylde coast always has to go one better.

I bet Cleveleys was heaving today, whilst poor old Morecambe would be deserted as usual.:D

It was flippin cold and windy there today and I forgot to take the camera. I was surprised that nobody had shown some enterprise and dragged a burger van along there. They would have made a fortune just selling brews.

They come from the southern hemisphere, of maybe escapees from Blackpool zoo, as in the film Madagascar.

Re: clevleys today

It's an ill wind that blows nobody any good. If our order book is any indication, last Thursdays storms gave Cleveleys a very unexpected but desperately needed bonus. Trade has been sadly reduced this winter due to the suspension of the tram service while the council replace all the tracks.

Anyone have recipe for soggy digestives????

I new there was somewhere I was going to go today :(

Re: clevleys today

It’s a pity it wasn’t a munitions ship, we could have floated it down the coast and cleaned up Blackpool.

The ship is moving on the sand during the tides, it’s moved a couple of hundred yards north over the last few days. Hopefully they can get her off her bottom over the next few days. There’s always the risk of the tides and weather turning nasty, we have enough ****e and flotsam on this coastline already. One note of worth is that the RAF, Coast Guard and Police continue to do an excellent Job.

Not going today anyway, think I'll give it a miss over the weekend as it will probably be packed, might have a look over on Monday

Re: clevleys today

Apparently the ship is now sitting over and blocking Blackpool's main sewage output pipe. Poor old Doug - he goes to the bog, flushes the chain and then 10 seconds later - whoosh! the sh*t hits the fan, quite literally. Followed by 2 packets of mangy Mcvities Jaffa Cakes stuck to Doug's toilet ceiling.

Those people trying to get right close up to it, never mind on it, must be wrong in their heads. Good job there's an exclusion zone round it now.
