I'd never been there before, and thought what they're doing looked great.

It was a beautiful sunny day when we were there, like in your photographs, and the place looked truly beautiful.

The south shore end is looking nice, it's the rest of it that turns me off the place. Never really liked Blackpool, still don't. When I can afford it I'm heading further north......

You might remember that I said to you I was going up to take some photographs back in the summer, those were them, I never got round to posting them.....

Wonderful pics - can see me visiting Cleveleys even more often next summer.
It only costs me £1 return to get there and may well be a free bus for pensioners and disabled from next April

If they do a bit of work on the main street and sort the kids out, it will be a good place to come to again............

When I was in Blackpool the front was very disappointing, I hope they do as good a job as they've done at Cleveleys

I like it here, it's been 30 odd years now that I've lived here, apart from a disaster period when I lived in Fleetwood for a couple of years.

I've not been in Bispham Kitchens for donkeys years Granny, they where one of the best for miles around at one time, but I think most of these places are now out to make now't but money, much of the quality as gone now........


The Chippy aside of the station Cheokee is supposed to be the best around, I've been able to find it open when I want any and usally go to the one on Eastpines......

We walked to a very good chippy which had a cafe in Bispham.
