The night before
School's out, work is on pause and the cottage industry is closed for Christmas. It's finally here after months of waiting and we're all beside ourselves with excitement.
The bags are packed (with space to spare thanks to Annette's frugal choice of clothes) and we have even managed to find room for Ellie much to Esther's relief.
We've got so many exciting new experiences ahead of us crammed into a 7 week trip. South East Asia here we come!

Morning of NY
... had enough and slammed the door. My response to this was to shout abuse, "I'm not gonna buy your album then!!!" I then stuck my fingers up at the little *****. The minibus stopped, and the now angry tits ran out and chased me followed by a bodyguard. As I ran down a back street, to my delight I saw a black Caribbean family who helped me into the house, unfortunately with difficulty trying to get over the baby gate. Then I woke. Back to the taxi... The agreed time ...
Liverpool.....Yeh, Yeh, Yeh
How is England different from the US?
The USA has a Kidney Bank, while England has a Liverpool.
OK, let's finish our groaning and get on with this, the latest installment of our blog. According to the map, Liverpool, on the Mersey River, was just a few hours north of Bath, but with flooded rail tracks, getting there proved to be a major headache. We, together with hundreds of others anxious to get to their respective destinations on this Friday ...
Liverpool is way cool :-)
... machine which was pretty funny. Today went back into the city and checked out the maritime museum as they had a 100th anniversary of the sinking of the titanic exhibit which was really cool. Had a quick goosey gander in the museum then wandered along the harbour to the Atlantic monument then back into the city taking pics here and there. Here we are on the train back to London. Weekends go way too fast! Till next post Toodaloo ...
Easy day =)
... through the woods, and they were exactly as I had always pictured. It was overcast and the clouds threatened rain, but we continued our walk to the beach. In Formby, they had red squirrels... I wanted so badly to see one since I had heard about them so much in the past, but alas, I was not lucky enough to encounter one due to the weather Uncle Dave said.
Once you walk through the woods, there is an open walking area with beautiful serene scenery. ...

Pleasant stay at the Norwood
I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at this hotel. I was worried that the central location would mean that the I would hear a lot of external noise but the side street itself is very quiet. This is not a purpose built hotel so the rooms are different shapes and sizes but are very clean and tidy. Geoff and Lorraine make extra effort to ensure your stay is warm and comfortable and are happy to cater to individual meal time requirements. I can honestly say that this is a hotel I would not hesitate in recommending to my friends or returning to myself if I should have the opportunity to visit Blackpool again.
If you want a warm welcome GO TO THE NORWOOD
We returned yesterday after a 3 day stay at the Norwood and would highly recommend it to you all. The rooms are spotlessly clean, everything you need is provided and the breakfasts are cooked to perfection ("especially the Bury Blackpud" says Jim.) Having been to Blackpool many times before and stayed overnight in various Hotels we must say that we have never felt so welcome as we did at the Norwood. Both Lorraine and Geoff are a most genuine couple that care about their guests, nothing is too much trouble for them. When we left it was like saying goodbye to old friends, we did not feel sad that we were going home but happy because we knew that we would be returning again.
Great stay
We have just returned from a weekend at the Norwood Hotel and were very pleased with our stay. The accommodation was smart and very clean and so was the bar. There was also a good choice for breakfast. There owners were very welcoming and very helpful. In all it was a lovely stay and would definitely stay again!
Brilliant 5*
Well we was at the Norwood last weekend and we really enjoyed our stay, not sure what the other couple where on NOISE?? And quite nice!!! The hotel is spotless the couple that own it Geoff and Lorraine well what can I say about them FANTASTIC people, freindly, helpful and nothing is too much trouble at all. The hotel itself is off the main road on a nice street up from corral island, admittedly there is no street parking and you have to use the main carpark down the road. The car park is safe and does have security camera's and is patrolled regular, the price varies depending on the length of stay it works out cheaper to put ticket on for 24 hrs at a time. This is a ideal location if you are wanting the tower, opera house and very central place for everything.
Quite nice
My wife and I visited this hotel in the summer and we were surprised to see it rated highly in Blackpool. The hotel itself is quite nice and the owners very pleasant, other than that it is very typical of many other Blackpool B&B's we have stayed in. The only problems that we found was that it can get a little noisy at times (probably due to the busy street location) and finding the hotel. Parking, especially if you don't want to pay nearly as much for that as you do for a room, seems to be a problem in many areas within Blackpool.
Most enjoyable little hotel
Have stayed in many a hotel around the world with my job /holidays but none have been as friendly and welcoming as geoff & lorraines at the norwood hotel in blackpool. The rooms were warm and inviting and so clean and the linen soft it was hard to imagine that you were in a hotel and not your own home. I will recommend to any friends or relatives visiting blackpool to stay at the norwood.
BRILLIANT PLACE TO STAY
i have stayed at the norwood for the last three years it is the most welcoming b&b i have ever stayed at lorraine & jeff are very friendly any request isnt a problem the rooms are clean and comfortable especially the pillows .thanks for the loan of the mirror the breakfast is lush i feel like one of the family whilst staying there.
MANY THANKS Lisa
P.S. will see you next year.
Enjoyable stay @ the Norwood
Having sellected this hotel at random from a long list of B&B's in Blackpool I was delighted with the choice. The couple who run the Norwood are friendly and committed to customer care. The atmosphere is relaxed and friendly, the food is good. The bar and dining room are well decorated and comfortable. As the owners have yet to complete their upgrading of the hotel the decor in the bedrooms is a little dated but the facilities are good, the beds are comfortable and everything is spotless. The location of the hotel is favourable being near to transport and shops as well as ammusements and cafes. If you want to experience a traditional British seaside holiday the Norwood Hotel is the place to stay!
Absolutely fantastic !
The Norwood Hotel is just THE BEST ! A group of 11 of us from Switzerland stayed there 4-9 August 2004. This is our second visit (first being in Dec. 2002) and we will most definitely return. I can't speak highly enough of the hotel. Everything is perfect, comfortable rooms with all amenities, cosy lounge/bar ... breakfasts are Yummy ... the proprietors make you feel so welcome and nothing is too much trouble for them. We travel quite a bit around Europe (linedancing) and my Swiss friends have never come across such hospitality before. There is such a family atmosphere. We will most certainly be back.
Excellent
Stayed at the norwood Hotel on 31/8/04 for 2 nights. There was a group of us (all couples). This is the best B+B we have stayed at. We have all been to b'pool reg as big Phil the Power fans!! (Darts), and have stayed at lots of different places. We all would recomend this hotel it was very clean, comfortable and very affordable. The owners were very nice welcoming people, We are looking foward to booking with them again next year.l
