    If you’ve got young kids and are in Cheshire/Merseyside it’s really near, it’s got fresh air, a beach, kids fairground, some arcade things to do and the kids have a decent day…better than sitting in playing video games. Yep the High Street isn’t the best, but on a decent day the kids have fun.

      It has declined a lot in 30 years. The redevelopments began just a bit earlier and they were the beginnings of the slide, I think. I also think some things were not maintained. I don't think attractions had good tenants, so that led to more blanket redevelopment. And the same mistakes are still being made.

    As a kid that lived in Stoke-on-Trent I used to visit this place all the time with family. We would do Rhyl, Towyn, Colwyn Bay and then on to Llandudno all in one day. The best part about Llandudno was driving through a mountain to get there which always blew my mind as a kid haha. Have to say I always much preferred South Wales though to North. Places like Tenby, Saundersfoot and Manorbier. A really nice part of the country.

    Smartphones have certainly made us very lazy. We don't want to get up unless we're making money. Going to seaside will cost £200 upwards for a small family, petrol, parking, food, entertainment etc. The experience isn't overwhelming anymore because phones give us distractions. High streets are shutting up because of the world's biggest markets for shopping in our hands. Even if we do go out a parking ticket costs about £100 for going a few minutes over. Sad really

      Britain has been in decline for decades, and since CONVID, the decline and decay is even more evident. Am sure you have been to enough places to see a pattern, - no people about, shut down pubs and shops, litter, no atmosphere, people walking about with their heads down, etc. The reasons people don’t want to go out is because they were locked up, illegally for 2-3 years, submitting to liars, who attacked and traumatised their minds, and feared for their lives. No one has any money, to go anywhere due to economics, lack of good jobs, and the fact that it’s so depressing. One thing I’ve noticed more of since the rise of UA-cam “ influencers “ is wherever they go, there are hardly any people about, in any area, on the streets in the UK, it’s really eerie, but a sign of the times of the last days.

    I can remember going to Rhyl with the school when i was only 10 years of age , and although quite young i swore i would never go again and i haven't, even at a young age i can remember what a shithole it was.

      How can such a busy and brash place as Blackpool be described as "grim"? It has more tourism than Portugal or Greece, so it must have some appeal.

    That’s a part of it, but it’s a massive recession and maybe capitalism is dying. People are doing things, maybe just not spending loads of money. There are other options. I get what you are saying, but we don’t need a car to survive. It’s difficult for families.
