The ones that were taking it in turns sucking off a blow up doll in the Bull and Stirrup last weekend weren't posh. I think a lot of scousers head to Chester a bit like we head in to town for gigs and such. We get all sorts of visitors in Chester, we do really well for tourism both domestic and international. .

Is there a Pontins?

Is there a Pontins?

There was. It looked like a Nazi death camp (has featured in other urb threads). I lived next to it as a kid. Knocked down a few years back.

Is there a Pontins?

Yeah, you'll have to go upmarket as the camp is no more and stay in the Britannia hotel. I'm sure it'll be lovely, and you can provide a detailed report.

You're never too old for rollercoasters.

We should organise the next urban northern thing in Blackpool so we can see who vomits everywhere after being on the rides.

We don't usually need rides for street pizzas to occur.

It'd be fun to take LSD or MDMA before going on the rollercoasters.

Remember coming up on pills on fairground rides back in the day.

Enjoy the reviews. A lot of them are rated 'terrible' - I don't know why so you definitely needs to investigate.

Oddly, I'm pretty sure I went to a training course at the hotel about twenty years ago - the conference room we were in seemed OK. The course was to learn about how to write business cases - don't remember much about the content now though.

I was too old for rollercoasters at approx age 8. It may have been earlier, I have a vague memory of being on one then spewing a lot!
