    Ought be good you go on pleasure beach with the macmaster, then you said it. I must be a mind reader or what !!! Haha. I used love pleasure beach nowadays can only go on fairly tame rides, sadly. Do miss the others I used ride on. But also is entertaining watching rides going round too. I must get on pleasure beach at some point in time. Yeah I would very much look forwards to. A video you two. On the rides. Never been on big one, no chance. Noooooooooooh. Watching your twos expressions and enthusiasm will be banging !! Lol. Will though. Look forwards to more of your highly entertaining and informative videos, You’ve DEFINATELY a great sense of humour Stephen. Takecare. “Mr. Legend of Blackpool and beyond”. Di xx

    The south pier has an interesting history it was slightly longer when it was 1st built, the 1st pavilion caught fire in 58 & was replaced only for that one to catch fire in 63 which extensively damaged the pier to the point of it having to be altered slightly the 3rd pavilion was removed in the 90s because of lack of ticket sales. I love reading abou the history of these things ❤️ I'm coming over to Blackpool next year after a 2 year absence & I can't wait 👍🎊

    When someone is here on holiday they must go up the Tower, go on the Piers etc but because you live local you can go anytime but usually don't. When I moved to London 36 years ago I did the open top bus, Tower Bridge, Boat trip on the Thames etc, but it took me 13 years to go to the main entrance to Buckingham Palace and that was when Princess Diana RIP died. I had London on my doorstep for 35 years and they are still lots of places I should have visited but didn't.
    First 2 times I came to Blackpool were day trips from London on 5 November weekends, to see the Illuminations, but we didn't see much of them because we had to be back at North Station at 6pm. I think my first time in Blackpool was the year the Big One opened. A work colleague of mine had to rush down from North Station to go on the Big One, I ended up going with him. Back in the good old days of free entry to the Pleasure Beach and only had to pay for the rides. A few years later I started coming to Blackpool with my boyfriend and we did the usual touristy things. The Tower, Ballroom and circus, The Big One, Stanley Park boat ride, the zoo, the 3 Piers. Big wheel on Central Pier. Now I am happy to go to Bispham on a nice day especially when the Lake District mountains are in view.
    Yes Stephen it is wonderful living by the sea. My first year living here have been fantastic. Not only Blackpool but the beautiful Fylde Coast as well. Once I can see the sea I am happy, but if I get good views of the mountains as well even better. I also love a decent high tide, the bigger the waves the better. Oh the sunsets are fantastic. I also love the starlings end of the Pier shows, Illuminations, Tower and ballroom and Heritage trams xxx

    I think it ends up as one of those, "well I live here so I can do it when I feel like it things". It's always there and in the summer, it's full of tourists and who need that.
    I used to live and work in London. All I did was live and work in London. I didn't bother going sightseeing. I lived about two miles away from Ally Pally but I'd been there before I moved to the smoke. I was too busy just living life to bother with museums and such.
    I'd have had a go at the London Eye but that was built after I moved to the US. Where I live here, it's all civil war battlefields and such and I'm just like, meh. I'm 75 miles away from DC but I can't be arsed to futs about trying to get into DC via public transport as I'd have to drive 40 odd miles. I don't want to drive into DC as the parking is extortionate and I don't want to deal with the traffic trying to get back home.
    In the smoke, I could go anywhere easy peasey with a LT pass. Over here, sans voiture, t'es foutu!

Along with the other piers. Why not pay the ticket fee and ho up the tower, into the pleasure beach, etc. alone Steve? Other vloggers do.

    I believe that you have to pay the full price just to spectate at the pleasure Beach, iff your taking your grand kids on the park and have no intension off going on the rides yourself, you still have to pay the full amount to get on, which i think this will put a lot off people off.

      Pure Greed sadly took over, I remember when you could just walk in and buy some tickets, then it was the wristbands and anyone else had to pay £6
      Today's fees are a bit cheeky IMO and overtime people will just go less and less, Blackpool now is more of a daytrip Town, maybe a weekend at a stretch but people just can't afford a full week or a fortnight anymore, waaaaaaay 2 expensive and just not worth it.
