Drove to Blackpool yesterday. Our car was sick so we hired a Rover 400. Which was very nice. Pissed down in Blackpool but we did what we needed to (all will become clear in the next few weeks) then had a stroll down the prom, ate chips, showed Edward the sea (nonplussed but he was obsessed by the horses that run up and down the prom pulling carriages), ate delicious home made ice cream and then set off for London. We stopped for a cup of tea at Darren's parents in Skelmersdale on the way home but Edward wasn't very friendly with their cocker spaniel so we left (actually, Edward tried to kill him). Home by 9, pizza and Fried Green Tomatoes then bed. What a lovely day.
