Blackpool, Here We Are Again!

In a good portrait, the eyes follow you around the room 
- Peter Cook
 Welcome to the journey onto Blackpool!
Cup of brew is needed.
I have a shower.
Dressed.
Now down for breakfast. 
After breakfast, we went to speak to someone about being overcharged for the room.
Excuse was with Booking.com, she will refund the money as soon as possible.
Back up to the room to pack up the things.
We checked out.
Back on the road to Blackpool....
I think we will pass on seeing hubby's relations.
I didn't bring my Holy Water!
Good job I don't need no petrol.
Getting near to Blackpool!
We got into Blackpool.
We had to pay for overnight parking as there was no room outside the Hotel.
We unpacked the car.
Now to unveil the lovely room!
Unpacks the bags.
Time for a cuppa. 
Now out to go and explore on the tram.
We get off at Cleveleys.
Charity Shop Time!
One Dvd I won't be buying↓
The price of having really big feet!
Back on the tram back to the hotel to unpack the trolley and have tea.
Back out to catch the sunset and have a trip to Fleetwood.
We reach Fleetwood.
Back on the tram to look at the lights in Blackpool.
Back to the hotel.
Now to enjoy that lovely bed!

A couch is good for one thing only - John Wayne
Welcome to my Busy Saturday 👍
I work up early, and left Sleepy Beauty along to sleep.
I had a cup of brew and listened to "Sounds of 
the 60s"
There was no top 3 singles this week :(
Hubby came down and we had breakfast upstairs. Got dressed after writing out the shopping list.
Now for a ride out....
Gets to Bromsgrove.
Armed with my pink trolley.
Loads of charity shops to explore.
Got some right bargains!
Back to the car.
Now to do some food shopping.
Got the shopping.

Back home to unpack the car.
Puts the shopping away.
Loads of bargains↓
Nice musical box for Christmas↓
The bunting goes up in the Craft room.
I noticed the sunflower I had been growing and had got to 4ft, the head had broken off :(
Just touched the small hand of the clock I bought, and it broke off!

Time for some liquid lunch!
Quick look into today's newspaper.
Now to make tonight's tea.
As older son is coming to visit...

Once it was finished, I dropped off older son back home.
