    This vlog felt like a treat for the older subscribers, there's a certain feel to the Shawn-alone vlogs, like he'll never be lonely because the fans keep him company, whilst I love and overall prefer Charlotte along as well, and I do think that was a wonderful direction to take, this is nostalgic for me, this vlog. I do hope to see Charlotte well and back with Shawn in the parks soon, as she now keeps him company and vice-versa, and we as the fans can just feel good that they found each other, and the chemistry/love is a joy to behold.

    I last went to BPB in June for a school trip, my school goes every year.
    I will be visiting on the last day of the season, I have the Boulevard hotel booked for 2 nights for my husband’s birthday. I didn’t know that there is going to be fireworks though, so that’s a bonus. Hopefully we will see you and can get a photo. We did the last day of the season last year which was a Sunday. It was very quiet and bitterly cold, especially on the flying machines but we had a brilliant day. Best day we’ve had in a theme park. Also the pizza buffet in Nic land is really good (not like Aramark’s rubbish food) so we will probably do that!

      I beg to differ. My local park is Alton Towers and I’ve enjoyed my visits to Pleasure Beach way more than Alton Towers over the past 2 years. Everything from the food and drink to ride availability as well as the general Northern charm from the staff. No it’s not perfect but it’s from dying.

    I was last there at the end of August on a nice sunny day. I managed to try out the redone Valhalla before it closed later in the day.
    One of my favourite memories is back when the Blue Flier was known as the Zipper Dipper in Beaver Creek. My brother and I kept rushing back for another ride despite our parents telling us we'd had enough. Then the ride operator encouraged all the adults to get on also and kept the ride going on a loop without anyone having to get off. Good times!

    That sign is wrong,The Big One is only 235ft above sea level,its only 213 ft and it was,nt the fastest in the world when it opened in 1994.Steel Phantom was doing 85 where Big one is only 72.But excellent video.

    We last visited last year its difficult for us to go every year as we live in the midlands its a min 1hr 30 to any themepark so we have to pick and choose what we are able to go to in a season.
    For all the coasters they have for us nothing would beat the fun we had as a family on river caves

  • @stevencunliffe4085
    @stevencunliffe4085 Місяць тому

    I last visited Blackpool Pleasure Beach when it was still free to wander around...not sure when charges were implemented in that respect, i realise there is a need for tighter security etc. which has to be paid for but until they can reduce that somehow i do think the place will never be what made a family day out so good. I myself dont actually like the coasters so I'd be paying for nothing really but safeguard my 3 children,all under 16 years.

  • @alib5603
    @alib5603 Місяць тому +1

    I would like you to review freak night @ Blackpool if you can fit it in. Was my first time going to the event this year and although I really enjoyed it, I thought they were seriously lacking with scares in the ticketed mazes excluding twisted hollows .Also thought the Wallace and Gromit attraction would have been amazing if they had live actors inside. 2 minutes in going through the ride system in the dark was incredibly creepy and I was waiting for the scares that never happened. Can understand they probably can’t get many actors inside due to safety but it would have been great for a couple and would have made it a top scare attraction in my opinion. Lack of actors is a common theme in the Alice in the wonderland attraction and ghost train. It seemed like a lot of missed opportunities and I’d love to see what you think if you get chance to go. Ps sorry for the long comment.😂

    Thanks Shawn for some great content as always. I’m not sure you put Icon or The Big One in the same conversation as Hyperia!
    Hyperia is world class above the rest in the UK. The Big One is basically a glorified monorail & icon Is just “a good ride”
