Now then now then....
The nights are drawing in, the air feels autumnal, it's p*ssing down outside... which means it's Blackpool illuminations season again
Last year we had a really good turnout with lads (& lasses) coming from AOSE, AONE, AOWY and AONW. Unfortunately the traffic lights at south shore were on the blink so gridlock meant we didn't manage to cruise up the golden mile, then HM's Cup decided to overheat in the standing traffic but the fish & chips down at Lytham St Annes were top class
So, it's time to do it all again boys & girls, Saturday September 27th :thumbs:
This time we'll start at the north end as per Roeburndale's suggestion with some fish & chips at his fave eaterie, then head down to see the illuminations
Please bear in mind the traffic will be very heavy indeed in Blackpool so it will be more of a leisurely cruise than a B-road blast, but it promises to be a really good family evening out. We'll work out meeting times and a start time etc in due course but plan on an early evening start
to whet your appetites here's the pics thread from last year:
