I appreciate getting conned out of £2 on every bag of Blackpool Fish
and Chips. The art that enables an almost invisible piece of fish to be
encased in an enormous and utterly nebulous outer-casing is Michael
Angelo-esque!

Having said that, the tram ride to Fleetwood on the only surviving
pre-1930's tram line in Britain, the Illuminations and the "Big One"
truly *are* worth the effort.

Hey.

About a year ago, I was taken to task for pushing the Atheist point of
view on this newsgroup - it seems I caused offence to some people. I
shut up.

So please let's not have all this god business now.

Good point Jack. However it was Alastair, and he believes all humans are
wicked for using fossil fuels in their fragile efforts to try and crawl out
of the mud since the end of the last ice age.

Wicked despicable people. Hold on didn't the Catholics and the Protestants
enjoy a good old bonfire when it came to
religious tolerance - yeah especially poor old Thomas Cranmer. Apparently
when asked by he executioners
"how do you like your stake?"
" Preferably not burnt me old son" came the dignified reply from the
ex-Archbishop of Canterbury

Of course in historical context if humans hadn't have burned fossil fuels
Alastair wouldn't be here now - none of us would. Now imagine that?

oh year. Got in Blackpool about 10 to 10:30. light rain was coming down but
not too expreme. Sorted hotel out then we went in the arcades by the central
pier and just as we were about to come out, the heavens opened up the sky
went so dark it was like late evening. everybody was running for cover.
lasted about 20 mins! i got soaked. most of the promenade side roads were
flooded afterwards. It was unbelievable
