Skegness V Blackpool

Some folk seem to wonder why Skeggy doesn't have more year around visitors and have looked at Blackpool. To compare its just easier to say what Blackpoool has, mostly verything that Skeggy doesn't!

Tower,
Ballroom,
Circus
Shops
Sea Front (long one),
Pleasure Beach
3 x piers,
Motorway to get there,
Illumonations
Trams (equates to public Transport),
Hotels (plenty of them),
Lake District Near

Olympic Extravaganza, London 2012

Well Danny Boyle produced a magnificent extravaganza, very surreal. Not sure what the rest of the world will think but visually stunning.


I like the Queens' cameo, her little cheesy grin made it all worthwhile and I have never seen her moved before at the National Anthem. She IS human after all.


God save the Queen!


All that was missing was the giant inflatable pig flying over the stadium, took me back. Danny Boyle must be a Pink Floyd fan.




Well done. He's a northerner you know, just a shame he's from "over t'ill".
