[Closed] Blackpool

oh dear... Blackpool 🙁

The only thing that's going to be hot is your derrier after eating the very dodgy food there!

I take it you're Scottish then?

Blackpool is a very very bad place indeed

haha! it's a weekend away with some girls from work - should be a laugh! i'll make sure i stick to vege food then if the food's dodgy 😉

no, i am english 😆

Presume you are going to the hen party capital of the UK. Prepare to get absolutely plastered, toppling off your 18" heels and puking in the gutter. Make sure you wear almost no clothes, but carry your ciggies in a designer imitation crocodile container. Remember once it gets past 2AM that you can go into any food outlet and abuse the staff. If the tide is in then you must climb over the chains and go down the steps to test the water. You will never see daylight - those are the hours for sleeping off your hangover.

Other than the smells of fish and chips and frying onions, there's not much to go to Blackpool for.

no, i am english

You'll be outnumbered by Glaswegians then

If you like lady boys, transvestites, drugs , street violence, Stag/ hen do's , Drunken scots served up in a rundown ageing victorian cesspool you are going to have great time.

I've been there on a stag do, had something to eat, about 40 minutes later I was sick as a dog... I hadn't even started drinking by that point! (Admittedly it was a hot dog stand on the prom)

Another time, went to see the 'luminations and had a sit down meal as had kids with us.. Same thing happened.. It may not be the food, I may just be allergic to the place!

What about Leeds or Manchester or Newcastle?? They're much better bets. Blackpool is cheap for a reason........

In true aleigh stylee I shall be binge drinking on the way up to Blackpool in order for me to have no recollection of that nights events 😉 (I am joking of course!)

I know it's going to be 'interesting' that's for sure 😆

One of the girls at work.....her son works in one of the clubs and it's his last weekend there so that's why we're going to Blackpool. Not my first choice of weekends away but this year I've vowed to have as many laughs as possible and this just happens to be the next one coming up 😆

Spot on.

Awful place Blackpool. bad food, bad taste. I seem to remember it being a rather violent place at night.

Go to Liverpool instead, very vibrant night out there.

liverpool has plenty of choice, blackpool is like a nightmare to me ..full of nutters ! so aleigh ,you should be okay then !

Went there with an Ex and couldn't find anywhere nice to eat. Asked one of the staff in Boots (as that was the least pikey place we could find) if there was anywhere nice to eat. They laughed 'no, you're in Blackpool'

Hasn't blackpool burnt down recently. Horrible place.

Oi! That's my home town you're slagging off.. and you're, erm.. right. 🙁

hehe.

i guess i shall just have to look forward to my shopping trip on the saturday then 😯

er, nope. The shopping's crap too!

oh 😥

i might not go then

You have to! Blackpool needs your money!

Go to the Sandcastle swimming pool, its dead good.

do they have any good bike shops?

erm, no....

oh ffs

LOL!

Do some of you lot work for the Blackpool Tourist Board???

So, what are the[i] bad[/i] things about the place, then??

I'll let you know I guess 😆

don't let us put you off.. remember... one man's meat is another mans (food) poison (ing)...

I'm sure you'll have a great time! 😆

It's like Trainspotting, but not good enough to make a film about.

If you see John there, say hello to him for me.

WARN THE NORTH.

Uplink .. [You'll be outnumbered by Glaswegians then] explain please ?

WARN THE NORTH.

No need to worry my Londoncentric friend. The north doesn't go to Blackpool.

Blackpool is famous for holidaying Scots and in particular Scottish Fortnight when they descend en masse for a holiday

Ah, the famous Wakes Weeks.

bad news....

the Yates wine lodge burnt down last week, and the pub which was defying the smoking ban has closed as well.

what will you do???

not bother going by the sounds of it!

Ali, why did you choose BP without sussing it out first ?

cos it was more about the company and having a laugh, not really about where the place was!

I somehow don't think I'll be seeing much daylight to come across any donkeys as it looks like I shall have to drink A LOT to forget where I've been and what I've been up to at night! 😯
