I don't understand. I went out for the day yesterday. I didn't get up any earlier and I didn't go to bed any later, but I'm shattered. I used my scooter all day but my knee still hurts like mad. We went to Blackpool to see the lights. I love Blackpool, people slag it off but I think there's a charm to it.
I was amazed to see the lovely new accessible promenade that they've been working on for the last couple of years. It's still not quite finished but it looks great already. The tram stops are being raised to tram level to make it accessible. Again, they are not quite finished but it will be great when they are done. We spent a lot of the day in Cleavleys which is just north of Blackpool. It's rather lovely. A mixture of Blackpool tat but with cleaner streets. Although Blackpool looks a lot better than it did, even a year ago.
The lights were rather dissopointing. Not so many years ago the road was full of illuminations on either side, this year a lot we're missing. Some of the lights that were there had bulbs out, in some cases a whole row was out. You wouldn't have seen this a few years ago. Workmen would go up and down the promenade fixing the lights throughout the evening.
All in all though I had a fab day but I do wish some of the dropped kerbs were a little more dropped!
