That sounds like a good idea :wink: .

Anyone going on Sunday wanna PM me their phone number, so me and my cousin can come and meet up with some fellow TM'rs ???

(Plzz forgive my cousin's sinful ways by the way, for not being a TM member :? ).

QUESTION:
If we can sue McDonalds for making us fat and cigarette companies for giving us cancer; why can't we sue Smirnoff for all the ugly gits we've sh*gged ??

Good place to start looking is in the bar on the right as you walk in.
Most of us will be in there sometime during the day. :lol:

Yeah I'll be interested in meeting up - will be fun and put some faces to the names :)

TM Badges - are they home made or are they official ones for purchase? - Or are they only awarded out to people like Blue Peter Badges :D

I will get one first thing on Saturday, money waiting to the first TM person who will sell me one.

Probably Mark when I see him in the bar... :lol:

Now then boys and girls...

The mother and father are in Blackpool today and theyve done some research for me on carparks.

The main outdoor carpark (by Coral Island) is £20 for up to 96 hours. The machine only takes coins and is to pay upfront.

The Hound Hills Indoor multi storey is £20 for up to 96 hours. The machine is pay on departure and accepts notes.


Hope that helps some of you out

Mark

Also, in light of the recent fire in Blackpool, I've found the following out:





The major fire in the vicinity of Talbot Square, Blackpool is now under control but will continue to have some effect in the immediate vicinity of the buildings affected for businesses, residents and visitors.

Please note that the major half-term events such as “Showzam” will continue as they are outside the cordon that has been set up and Blackpool remains open for business throughout the half-term period.

There will be some road closures that will reduce over the next few days and some bus and tram services will be amended. A list of road closures includes:
Clifton Street
Talbot Road from the promenade to Abingdon Street
Corporation Street
West Street Car Park will be closed


If you would like to check the current status, please ring 01253 477600 or 01253 478222.

For more detail on amended bus timetables ring 01253 473000

Please allow extra time for your journeys to and plan to avoid the immediate area of Talbot Square.

Further updates will be made available on a regular basis
