Holmsdale Hotel Blackpool

... and thats for every flight. So we had to come up with a cunning plan. We are using a courier to send a case over to Singapore to our hotel ready for our cruise. It may seem like a lot of messing around but this is our holiday of a life time and we want to take suits and dresses we have bought for the cruise and have room for a few (very few say's Tony) momentos to ...

I'm quite busy right now at uni... to be honest, most of my business is my own fault- i've been too caught up in writing fiction than doing my essays, so i'm kind of attacking two assignments due next week! I'm hoping to get them done by tomorrow, because on Friday I am going to an Indian Food Festival (YAY FOR LOTS OF ...

We are sitting with a huge pile of travel guides, maps, notebooks, post it notes and general accumulated info in front of us wondering where to start!

The itinery is almost sorted out in terms of countries and cities. We've got the MASTA health brief and the FCO no go areas. We think we've got Visa requirments in hand and the boring (but necessary ...

... done up like a vampire as well. Quite disconcerting - and it was most unsettling. The taxi driver said the place really goes crazy at Halloween and he hates it. He wasn't looking forward to the night ahead at all. Poor thing. Houses, shops, pubs, along the streets, all displayed symbols of death and horror. I don't think I've ever seen such a display before. We were glad to leave Wigan and the feeling of desperation we sensed.

Tow truck 2, turns up at 15:29 and we are off again for the next leg of the journey, Stirling Services to Lancaster Services. This journey takes around 4 hours and I have a nice chat with the driver, Jim all the way. We phone ahead and arrange the next tow truck to meet us at Lancaster at 19:15, guess what? Yes, it wasn't there and I am told it won't be there until 20:15 and it finally arrives at 20:30

... club on Tuesday 21 February 1961. They had returned to Liverpool from Hamburg, Germany. The Cavern Club is the first playable location in The Beatles: Rock Band (the game).

To enter the club you have to go down about two floors of stairs, and then you enter a quite big cave. On early evenings the scene is open to everyone able to play guitare, and people play old beatles standards, will other join them in singing. Really nice athmosphere ...

John took me to Blackpool. He may have wanted to show me a UK beach resort. The street along the beach was full of decorations. I took a picture of his profile in the car. It was just a memory of Blackpool. We were on the way from Preston, where we met his old friend, and John talked about the word "love", because people there used "love" meaning "you" very often, when they talk to someone, like "Good morning, love!". That sounded awkward to him.
