We had one more day to use up on our 4 out of 8 train ticket and the only place that we can get to today that is not raining is Blackpool. Neither my No. 2 nor I have ever been there and we both felt that it is rather commercialised and not really to our taste but we both thoroughly enjoyed the day. Went on a Blackpool Tram, looked at Blackpool Tower, had fish and chips on the prom, did all the Blackpool things that we could think of.
