Blackpool Tower and the 3 Piers
Today we visited the Tower Complex pro gratis courtesy of my granson Matthew.Hight light being a photo taken at the end of the Tower that took us in the Dark Dungeon Days of the 200 year old war ( also known as the war of the Roses) a civil war between Lancashire and Yorkshire in which the Lancastrians won.The photo is easily recognised by the sheer look of horror on me n Annies face !
This photo will be copied and placed in all my home windows to scare potential burglars away!!
The Tower is approx 600 feet above ground and has spectacular entertainment and amusement features even a full blown Circus and a magnificent world class Ballroom.At the top a Glass floor has been installed to give customers an extra”thrill” This beautiful building played a large part in my life when a child (we used it as a playground)
The beach line is pristine and serviced by the Irish Sea and boasts 3 piers full of joy rides and multiple machines and side shows,the white building is the local football club ( not doing very well at the moment) and the fabulous showtime complex the Winter Gardens.Pointing straight out to sea is Ireland,to the Right slightly is the Isle of Mann and extreme right The Lake District and to the left Llandudno all of which on a very clear cold day (except Ireland)
