hello all
was nice to meet everyone and great to hear Dan enjoyed his day as it made the journey worthwhile.
after 456 miles i got home at 9.30pm which wasn't bad as i left blackpool at 6.30pm and stopped twice for red bull to keep me awake
i spent my last hour in blackpool buying food so visits to tesco express and morrisions meant i got some research done for work - not interesting but the kind of thing i need to do

so being there meant i never really had to go out of my way.
virtually the whole journey home was in the puring rain - my prayers for it to rain all day were finally answered - just a little late
i have some pics but too tired to download them tonight so will do it tomorrow and e-mail them to lyndon (mr pleasure beach)
for anyone who wasn't there a simple summary follows:
10.00am: lyndon finally get's into the pleasure beach after queueing all night
11.20am: lyndon turns up for the meet late due to being ...... at the pleasure beach
12noon: lyndon heads back ........... to the pleasure beach
3.00pm: after saying goodbyes lyndon drives round blackpool, goes for petrol and goes ............ to the pleasure beach
7.00pm: (no evidence but quite believable

) lyndon is dragged kicking and screaming from the pleasure beach as they try to close the gates
