Today I.....
I went to Blackpool with the 75, it's been a big day and I needed to get away from the stress of it...so Denise and myself went off to the seaside and had some fun. It's the first time we've been back to Blackpool since that ship ran aground a few years back, then she fell ill. We had a great day and the rough Sea made for a nice setting for Denise and the 75, she stood in that wind without a stick, the waves were crashing over the wall and she loved it.
The car looks almost as good... Last edited by Saga Lout; 10th December 2015 at 12:46.. |

Showing you age now, Strange, I have been all over the globe but never to Blackpool, I see that you have sand on the beach there, in my neck of the woods that's, Southwold and Felixstowe its all shingle, I must admit I usually holiday in Scotland, stayed on the Isle of Mull last time, fantastic time
