    10/10 for Bravery sir. There's no way in hell I'd go into town on a Saturday night. Far too many thugs, alcoholics, druggies and low life.

    Great Video Stephen. You really captured Blackpool at its liveliest. As usual no real trouble, Just everyone out enjoying themselves. Nice you have given the Akash a mention. Most bloggers walk past it. I recommended it to the Chatter Guys in there and they gave it four out of five. For me I have never been to a better curry house. Been going there for decades on my many trips to BP. I am sure Sami the owner will give you a big welcome if you visit. Thanks again. 🙂

What’s happening and goi g on at night in Blackpool. Music galore !! Fun times for. Fun folk and partygoers. Always seems a lot. Traffic in town centre and other areas. At least on your bike. You should get a nice cool breeze. All credit to your bravery at night and prime important is your own safety Stephen, bike my be sometimes a better option. Lots of hubbub outta there, maybe. Was a gig on or something !!!! The tower and its changing colours is stunning, absolutely so. Another fantastic video Stephen. Well done again. Di xx

    That was a very good video. Very, very clear focus. Between Kaos and The Flying Handbag, is an enormous disco or nightclub called Flamingos. It's not just for gays and does good rates for students, I've been there with my girlfriend and not left until around 5 am. Not cheap for drinks but good music.
    Oh, and you must be very fit. You NEVER sound out of breath! Well done!

    Hi, Steve. Felt like I was on my Stag-Do again - that was more barmy than balmy tho' - drunkenly visiting dubious clairvoyants, going on rides after too many oysters and shots 😂.
    Joking aside, your vlogs bring back so much childhood nostalgia. My grandparents used to take me there as a kid. I remember playing in Jungle Jim's, the play area which was part of The Tower complex. I remember us all nearly going arse over tit from the winds on the prom - and laughing while it was happening!When I saw the illuminations and tablots for the 1st time, I though I was in Las Vegas; I'd only seen the Mablethorpe and Skeggy ones; just as magical, but not on such a grand scale.
    Hope you are in good health, pal, and ta for another banging vlog.
