got to the pleasure beach just as all the rides were opening at 10am, most didn't close till 12 hours later !

Bought a wristband which entitled me to go on as many rides as i liked , bit of a queue for the bigger ones, but no more than ten minutes more than i have to queue to get a drink or use the toilet at halftime at St Andrews ! I suppose on average it was twenty minutes to queue and complete a ride, if I'd have wanted to I could have done 36 different ones in that time ! Think i only did about twenty, but I watched the Hot Ice and Magic shows as well, they were included in my wristband price and both were a good hour or so's entertainment !

Cost of Wristband = £29

Oh how i wished I'd spent that money on watching the football team i love provide me with 90 minutes tedium and the club i love provide me with poor standard and overpriced catering facilitys, all as the team of highly priced and assembled individuals achieved a fantastic home draw against high flying Leicester City , before heading home in their collection of Porsches and Audis !

Oh what value is football today !

£20 for Norwich, or shall I go and watch the Ordinary Boys do a 2 hour set at the Wulfran Hall ? I may even like the support !

The biggest lie about Blackpool is pinning the word 'pleasure' anywhere near it!

If you're struggling with that choice, you must really be depressed about the football :P

Having seen both I think I'm in the postion to say that I wouldn't watch the Ordinary Boys if they were playing in my front room, whereas Norwich in my back garden would be something to tell my mates about.


ordinary they surely are.

ok, have it that way then !

Football in general is badly overpriced and not offering value for money compared to other entertainment options !

Dont take my word for it, just check out the half empty grounds around the country !

Blackpool is an absolute ****hole.

I`d rather saw my own arm off with a spoon than spend a weekend there.
