Visit Blackpool Competition...


Move over Neil Buchanan there is a new girl lady in town!!



If you read my blog you will have guessed we all love Blackpool ( if your visiting for the first time hit the Blackpool tags below, to see some of the fun times we have had!! ).

When I first met my husband we had our first holiday in Blackpool. We have been here every year since, spending honeymoons pregnancies and arguments!! with the locals...  The ever present backdrop of the Tower, Three piers, Rides and Mooky evokes a special place in all my families hearts..
  
Sometimes I think I surf the Internet without even reading?  As yesterday a page I had seen before  (and obviously not taken in) I noticed the Tots100 are holding a competition to become a Blackpool Ambassador It ends tomorrow!! How have I not seen this before ? Wake up Claire!! 

Quick thinking I put the gym on hold, to think of a way to make a Blackpool tower ( sorry kids, you were at school, we can make one at the weekend) So I share my love of shoes to come up with my love for Blackpool and here it is..



Not sure which picture is best? you can decide for me:)


This post was like a workout at the gym, lifting shoes down from my bedroom = (weight)
Running up and down stairs every time for a birds eye view = (treadmill run)

Fun At Blackpool...


This week we managed to get a few days away to Blackpool before the school holidays finish .We spent a few days here when we got married and always try to visit around this time for our anniversary,this is one place we all love to visit every year.
This year it was our 16th wedding anniversary and celebrated we had a lovely family meal out, I had a curry,few glasses of wine and of course my favourite chocolate fudge cake for pudding...







So proud my daughter put her fear of animals behind her and tried the donkey ride out...


Can't come to blackpool without visiting the  Big disco ball...

Blackpool Trams And The Standard 147....

When in blackpool this summer we happened to just be around the pleasure beach when lots of people were taking photos of this very old tram. It was just a case of being in the right place at the right time to see it as 5 minutes later and we would have missed it....

Blackpool 'standard' 147.


This is the only one of  7 built that has survived it was built by Hurst Nelson in 1924.

















The trams of today at Blackpool look a lot different...
