How great that it's bought back wonderful memories for you of growing up in the area. I have only lived in Blackpool since 2001 and visited for the first time in 1999, so i dont have any physical memories of the place before then. It dissapoints me that i never got to go on the open deck of Fleetwoods sadly gone pier as it was closed to the public forever when i got to the area, only the shabby front amusements, cafe and bar were open. I'd have loved to have seen the Moorish Pavillion and Floral Hall that are no more on St Annes Pier too. I loved reading about New Brighton pier too and sad that i never got to see that and think it is such a shame that they allowed it to go in the 70's. Morecambes two piers i would have loved to have gone to aswell, its not the same walking on the stone jetty. I also missed the theatre on the South Pier here in Blackpool. So much of the precious seaside heritage gone forever. Kind Regards Carl Congrats Michelle on winning one of the fabbie books.
