Word On The Street!

Hey, sorry I haven't been posting a lot lately I've just been extremely busy. Anyway recently me and my mam went on a National Holiday to the Coronation Street Tour. This was our 2nd National Holiday and they are amazing. The bus is really comfortable and our driver was really polite, his name was Simon.
 
Any who, the first day we went to Liverpool for some shopping and Simon originally dropped everyone off at Albert Docks but mam asked if we could get dropped off closer to the shops and Simon kindly took me and mam around Liverpool on a VIP tour and dropped us off right around the corner from Topshop, aka my favourite shop. (He must love us) Oh and get this. I got chatted up in Primark. Me of all people.
 
Exhibit A
After our shopping spree we got to the hotel and for some odd reason there was a painting of a naked woman above our bed. Which me and mam found quite hilarious and started taking selfies with it and posting them on facebook. Oops!
 
In the hotel we found random miscellaneous objects that we could have a photo-shoot with.. See below.

 
 
The next day we had our breakfast and dashed on the bus as we were going to see the original sets of the British Soap Opera, Coronation Street.
 
It was brill. There were loads of photo opportunities and me and mam acted out being Gail and Eileen who are neighbouring rivals currently fighting over a guy called Michael. We were pulling pints in the rovers and nipped to Roys Rolls for a sarnie. Simon came along too and our tour guide was soo funny, I will have to leave a positive comment on TripAdviser.  
Sorry my photography skills are rubbish, but I am proud of the Liverpool Landscape

 
 
Before I go I want to let you in on a secret... No I don't fancy Simon. The secret is that I wasn't really a fan of Coronation Street but I can safely say, I have definitely been converted. Oh and that it is way better than the Rovers at Blackpool.
Thanks for reading and I'll see you later chums (well not see you that's weird)
 
(I've got a blog post planned from my trip to the races if you would fancy reading that.)

Oh I do like to be beside the Seaside!


Over the Easter weekend me and my family went to Blackpool. I had been to Blackpool when I was small but this was my first real encounter of the place and let me tell you.. It is definitely an eye opener. In two days I have had a drink in the Rovers Return, been 360ft above ground on 5cm glass and nearly walked into the kitchen in a top notch restaurant. We've been singing and dancing all the way (along with people on their stag or hen night).

People say that Blackpool is like a mini Vegas but I say it's like if London were by the sea.

We even travelled in style on a Victorian horse and carriage (which my sister loved and didn't want to come off)  I just love Blackpool!




 Oh I do love to be beside the seaside (even though we didn't actually go on the beach)
 

 Thanks for reading hope you enjoyed it. (Especially the photos I think I done a good job of taking them if I do say so myself).
