Blackpool Lights 2012 Supper And Drive Thru
This year the lights will be switched on by Little Mix and supported by Amy McDonald and Lemar on 31st August 2012.
The past 4 years have seen the North West members - and some from further afield meet up for a fish and chip supper in St Annes On Sea followed by a drive through the Illiminations.
I'm proposing another similar evening so if you'd like to be a part of it stitch your name down and join in.
I'm proposing SATURDAY 15th SEPTEMBER '12 so it's a little darker earlier on for the kids and it won't clash with the drive in movie on the 1/9/12.
The Promenard has been changed over the past 12 months or so, so the layout may be different. :dontknow:

alexandra and i were there today.
we had a picnic in fleetwood then drove down the front to blackpool. i parked in the same place as i did 2 years ago when the steering rack decided to depart fom the body just before the lights run.
even in the day time it seemed like for ever to get from one side to the other.

Bit of a rush for tea and those who may be working on the Saturday. It is a Saturday night after all. :wink:
And some cars go off the road at the end of Septmeber too. We stand a better turn out if its earlier.
But as you see fit… I'll leave it to you.

PNERivage and I have had a chat and we're going to keep the date as 15th September 12.
It coincides with Blackpool Breeze so may attract 'out of towners' as mAtt has indicated.
Matt, I'll post in National shortly.
