He is in his 80s and was standing with his walking stick. Disgraceful. In the end someone stood up. Give your seat up!!!!! He gave me kiss and got off to go to the football. See you soon Alan.

Missing Blackpool already.

      Ive seen a few videos of a place near the original Fleetwood depot which is a trams graveyard, rail coaches advertising the icezone & zoo rotting away . The purple ones mean the vintage trams are slightly more easily discarded & given away which is a shame. I hope as cities revive their trams, preservation societies crop up like steam railways.

    That great lump of a car park as you called it Stephen is by far the safest multi story I have parked in for some time. Or it is whilst the entry system is functional. Why they override it when it is busy is a mystery. But that is the car park I aim for these days.

      There were some white cart horses that pulled deliveries from the railway stations to addresses in town. They were stabled behind the Swan. In the evening you could see them returning from their days work to the stables. When they were made redundant a petition was raised to stop them from being slaughtered.
