This is not a club meet, but I'm thinking of having a blast over to blackpool from Yorkshire one evening to drive through the lights and maybe a fish and chip supper. No dates in mind just yet, I'm open to suggestions if anyone's interested give us a shout

Will probably get a few lads to tag along, 5 minutes down the road for me any excuse for fish and chips :d  :d  :d  :d , the only problem with weekends it can be bumper to bumper and not much fun  :down:  :down:  :down:

I wondered that Steve, I'm happy with a week day, may just blat down the M62 instead of cross country in that case. Can you recommend anywhere for fish and chips?? I thought Harry ramsdens on the front but not sure on parking?? How about a week on wed, the 8th of October. Is that too close to the monthly meeting Martin?? I think it's the day after. We could meet at Hilton at Ainley top at 6.30

Ricky..I wouldn't bother with Harry Ramsden's terrible for parking, lots of good chippies about which are Westfield parking friendly...I will keep my eye on your arrangements and possibly meet up at Preston.

Do a video of your Blackpool lights cruise, should look good.  I was contemplating doing one at Southend-On-Sea promenade lights but they only have a few lightbulbs :(

Let's make it a date then guys

WEDNESDAY 8TH OCT @ 6.30pm cedar court hotel, Huddersfield. Junc 24 M62. We will aim to leave just before 7. Steve, should be around Preston at 7.45. Was thinking run through the lights northbound then fish and chips then back through lights southbound then home.

Hi Ricky - Might be an idea to describe the meeting point more accurately  :durr: (Is it on the roundabout??)

 

Rather than use the motorways, I'd like to make my own way there via the A59 from Harrogate through to Preston so I would like a meeting point in Preston please (as would Steve and the rest of the Lancs and Mancs lot).

 

Well done and thanks  :)

Wednesday the 8th is the Manchester meeting night.

I think when the lights are on the display starts at the north end and heads south?

The hotel is on the roundabout. We can do both ways through the lights, meeting in Preston is a good idea although no idea of anywhere there. Can anyone suggest anywhere? Is there a few mancs wanting to come?, maybe we need to change date. If I'm going it needs to be this week or next due to work commitments.
