We went up to the pool of black on Saturday morning for the weekend, to experience "a slice of the north". We were pleasantly surprised with the curry we had for dinner that night, but that was about it! It is definitely a grim place to be living... No-one has any teeth up there, and they look like they haven't seen the sun for about ten years. Even I looked tanned, and that is saying something! It was lovely to be around some genuinely nice people though... have a bit of banter with the locals over a cup of tea and scone without thinking they are about to steal your bag.

We got amongst the pub scene while we were up there, and ended up at a karaoke bar before 4pm with the hundred's of hens/stag do's that afternoon. Ended up seeing a lot more than I bargained for at one hen's night club... see, Blackpool does offer something that no-one else does!
