    Uber taxis what's the thoughts?

    We have started using Ubers when we can, better accurate info on where the taxi is, cheaper fairs, better app and easier to pay. Got one to Poulton Station yesterday cost of under £5 👍. We got to the station and had a Poulton Taxi driver shaking his head at us in disgust, I had to laugh out...

    Road building why are we so BAD at it?

    Why are we so bad at building roads in this country? Local new road the Edith Rigby Way (off junction 2 M55) has been open for less than 6 months and the Northern route to Preston Docks is already half coned off. Surely before this road was opened that would have inspected the work and deemed...

    Electric motorbikes - comical starts

    No sure if this is a joke but Kawasaki one of the top motorbike manufacturers who offer exciting, powerfull technology advanced bikes, are about to release the "Ninja e-1 and Z e-1" onto the market.

    Daniel Khalife escape!

    Just how pathetic can this country be? A suspected highly trained terrorist spy escapes from prison by attaching himself to a van which drives out of a London prison without any checks. This country has become more than embarrassing in every single which way - it is ridiculous how bad things...

    Football - is no longer any fun 🤬

    With all the singing, standing, scarf wearing conditions, the beautiful game has long gone to the money obsessed corporate greed mongers, it is no longer the beautiful game of the "working class" and to be honest I've really had enough of it. And after being a pool fan home and away for over 50...

    Blackpool piers at risk?

    Sand Loss They are saying the sand loss is a pretty recent thing, when I was younger I could quite easily jump from the prom down onto the beach, things have changed on the prom with the new sea defenses so that wouldn't be possible but the beach looks about 30ft lower than the prom nowadays. I...

    Are we being duped with EV's

    Just seen these headlines on a politics program as I entered the brew room but never got to hear the end results. So what's the general consensus here on "a view" ? My wife is getting a EV next week swapping the 3.0l diesel Merc for a 50kw e2006, I'm not concerned about the swap as we will save...

    The Thomsons ruling the council again

    It seems like the Pleasure Beach owners still have the ear of the council. They have objected to a development on the Flagstaff Gardens which would see investment of up to £750 000 and create 80 jobs, the likelihood of the Thomson objection means it is likely to be knocked back, suprise...

    Sky Premier League Women Commentators ☹️

    This lady who is commentating on the West Ham Vs Southampton game is awful 😕. Personally I don't think she has added anything to the program, her voice is too high pitched to have to listen to for +95 minutes, I'd rather listen to Trevor Brooking or even Garry Neville 😕

    We are "little" Blackpool

    We need to get used to it. We can flirt every now and again with the playoffs and the occasional trip to the Championship but our natural position is mid/mid League 1. We have less than 7k regular season ticket holders and rarely get +8k home fans on any game unless it's a derby or some other...

    Snow watch

    Anyone seen any of this white stuff we are ment to be so afraid of? Honestly the media nowadays want us petrified of anything that isn't the norm 🙁 It's winter so we should expect a bit of snow.
