The Ballroom dancing was so lovely.
Reminds to watch a good film when I get back home↓

Gets to the train station, and our connecting train from Preston to Birmingham was cancelled.
We caught the train from Blackpool to Manchester Piccadilly Station, then onto another train to Birmingham. Then it got warm again.
