That sounds so like my Wife. We went all the way to Universal Studios in L.A and she wouldn't even go on the 'cup & saucer' kiddies ride !!

Re: Blackpool Early Summer Briskoda Meet

Thing I don't get is Dave is happy to push the boundaries when he's behind the wheel, yet won't go on a rollercoaster.

Is it a thing about not being in control? Because if it is, I fully understand. If I'm not confident in the person driving me about I will be very agitated and unconfident.... However a rollercoaster is kind of pre-determined so it doesn't worry as much in that way.

I've never been to Blackpool EVER so looking forward to it. I'll need recommendation of a good B&B though. There and back in a day is a tough one.

Yup, it's a control thing I guess, and also a fear of heights.

Watch Final Destination 3



Bed and breakfast wise, the internet is your friend. I couldn't recommend any, and I don't know anyone who runs one, so you are on your own I'm afraid.

Prices range from £10 a night in a traditional B+B, to a couple of grand for a suite at the Hilton.

Re: Blackpool Early Summer Briskoda Meet

I forgot about vertigo being a factor

Shall YELL for hotels at some point. Will have to chat with new employers to see if I can get half day off, then I can stay Friday night with possible drinks, and then Saturday can be whatever. Should be able to drive home that evening.

half price is still pretty expensive there!! (I used to work there!!) when I was there it was £7 for one go on any of the big rides (big one, valhalla, spin dr) and about £4 or £5 for things like the grand national (best ride there!! )

I never used to pay for em lol!

Right, definitely coming. And will be booking a b&b for the Friday & Sat night. Luckily I have that Sunday off as it was going to be for Lornas birthday.

So, if anyone wants to share accomodation I'm more than happy to go halves/thirds, whatever.
