    Keep em coming, I like the calmness in your videos and the memories Blackpool brings back. Glad Blackpool can still manage the illuminations and still draws people. It is more important to preserve than ever to document English seaside towns. Big respect to you.

    My parents took me to Blackpool over forty years ago. I went back about seventeen years ago. It hadn’t changed.
    It’s sad that it costs less to fly abroad than have a week in the U.K. Blackpool suffers.

    Blackpool was so much part of my youth coming up for a few nights during the lights at one of the many side street terraced hotels with my parents.Then later a daytrip with mates and girls on the coach.Last time I was there was 1998 and sadly it seemed a bit run down and the crowds were gone. I guess ultimately times have moved on a bit but the pleasure beach was still magic.

    For all of the wind you experienced the mic setup worked great. Whatever you did seems to be the solution to wind noise.

      Thanks Jay. I used the DJI wireless mic for my Oslo Pocket here. For the fireworks livestream I used a Shure MV-88 with a dead cat. Both mics worked extremely well.

    🧔 Hiya Steve, we,ve been ok up in Cumbria, but I don't know if you know, the old court house in Cockermouth has collapsed in to the river Derwent, the foundations have washed away . It's been on the news. Great video as always, & yes ever since I've started watching you , I've always said, there's more to Blackpool than that pleasure beach. 😉

    Good afternoon Steve. Hope you are well. A very Lovely mooch a long the Promenade just having a look at what Blackpool is putting on different activities and light displays. It looks like Storm Babet has been very kind to Blackpool. By not causing any harm or distruction to any buildings. I thought the sea looked rather clam, just a few low gentle waves coming in on the shore. As ever a very Good and Narrated video from you Steve. Thank you. ☺☺☺☺👍👍👍👍🏖🏖🏖🏖🏖🎃🎃🎃☔☔

    Luckily Blackpool avoided the storm for the most part, just a shame the rain started part way into the fireworks, but even then it wasn't torrential rain.

    • @AWalkontheWildSideBlackpool

      It turned quite soggy, but at least it allowed amazing reflections for the Illuminations.

    That sea front is complete symbolism overload.. The sea front appears to be the only place the council invest any money & time into in Blackpool.
    The Tourists get the benefits of Blackpool Council and the the Residents get nothing by comparison.

      Hard to say. There is certainly a lot of work going on to improve the town, but there is still a lot of blight in some areas.

    All those bricks lying might inspire the rooftop guy to have another stand off with the police. Those lightpool structures are going to have the feral kids out in force for a climb on them.
