Bank Holiday Monday
Welcome to my Bank Holiday Monday in Blackpool 🌅
 
Up early for a cup of brew before going down for Breakfast.
Lovely breakfast.
Now out to get the tram and bus to St Annes.
We waited at the tram stop, when a taxi driver said:
" There were no trams running...!"
FFS
We crossed over the road to see if there was a bus running.
Not on a Bank Holiday Monday.
Back to the B&B to collect the car for a ride out.
We just one parking space in the car park at St Annes. Then off for a walk about in St Annes.
Coffee and nibble needed!
A guest wanting some food as well.
After visiting all the charity shops,
Off to see Les....
There was a large queue for ice cream↓
We get a ice cream off the front, and go for a long warm in the sunshine.
Planning being put forward↓
That should be interesting when the work is going to start....and is it going to get through.
Goes back to car.
Everyone is circling the car park for a space.
Then we get in the car and go off to find Les Dawson's grave.
Found it!
We put some flowers on it.
We had a good look around the graveyard while we were there.
Nice and warm in the sunshine.
Now to drive back to Blackpool.
We popped into Morrisons to get some tea for tonight.
Now for a drive down the front...
Back to the B&B
Unpacks all the goodies we bought.
We had our tea.
I looked into today's newspaper.

Road Trip Time!

There are two types of people: those who walk into a room and say, "Well, here I am," and those who walk into a room and say, "Ah, there you are," - Frederick Collins

At least I was the only one who put some flowers on her grave.
The other two arsehole brothers haven't bothered again!

Time for a road trip!
Now to have a good look about....
While I was in the toilet, one of my favourite songs was playing.
(It is at the end of the blog post) 
While I waiting for hubby to come out of the toilets,  I looked up  at the ceiling...
Time for a drink and nibble...
They don't serve whole milk.
Quickly nipped into the Waitrose which was in the actual garden centre to get some milk.
Now for some late breakfast....
Looked around a bit more.
Then we left....
On the way back I noticed the name Moog on a building....
Reminds me of the dog in "Willo the Wisp."
Back on the road trip
