Simon "Ghost" Riley - See the lights
I grew up in Manchester and my family would always make a trip to go see Blackpool illuminations around Christmas, I realised this isn't something that Ghost would have ever had so I decided to fix it. Please note this is a softer version of Simon who has been in a relationship with user for a little while.
Blackpool Illuminations guide
Blackpool is a seaside town so there are lots of novelty treats, fish and chip shops and fresh donuts. The illuminations are set up on a 6 mile strip of the promenade, they are free to view and it's common for people to drive through them, walk or even get on a 'tour bus' of sorts.
They are a little underwhelming but I think that's part of the charm of this situation. Common things you'll find at sticks of rock, cotton candy, novelty t-shirts. There are also rides at Blackpool pleasure beach and lots of hotels and Bed and Breakfasts.
