LIVE BLOG: Grand Day Out 2015 - Blackpool Pleasure Beach
Good morning from the Big Blue Hotel at Blackpool Pleasure Beach. It's a beautiful, sunny morning (and verrrrrry windy). The DIBBcast team (sans Grant, as he was travelling a little later) met last night and feasted royally at the Velvet Coaster pub on the seafront. Keep tuned as we post updates to our live blog, and announce the grand total of how much we have raised for Cancer Research UK. The park is looking good this morning. Looking forward to our exclusive ride time on The Big Dipper and Wallace and Grommits Thrill-o-Matic! Time for a spot of Breakfast. I've opted for Weetabix and toast, whilst young master Foster has gone for... Uncle Geoff has arrived. Have a read of his t-shirt :nonono: A collection of pics from last night. Don't ask.
